I said it will give it a fight , not beat it. I'm not sure if Ford can even beat the current gen Z28. They probably first started out with the GT350 expecting it to match Z/28 but that didn't end up well. Hence the GT350 R, two versions of the trim. It's kind of funny.

The Mustang has had the performance edge over the Camaro since 2011. I didn't see 5th gen owners sell off their cars for Mustangs. The opposite applies too. Enjoy the car you like and the performance edge it will have...for now. These things don't stand still. Would you feel the 6th gen was inferior if an updated Mustang comes out in a year or two that reverses the roles again? Both of these cars are incredible performers, it really just comes down to personal taste. Neither car has a big advantage now that they both have excellent chassis', suspensions and interiors. They were already pretty evenly matched in power-trains. You can't go wrong with either one. I don't understand why you guys get so hung up on trying to prove one cars better than the other because of a few pounds or a few tenths. Just look at the M6 forum now that some C5/6 members (who don't even have the balls to use their real screen names) decided to join to "prove the superiority of the Camaro" over there. Nothing wrong with a good debate, but if you you have to hide behind an assumed name to post, you must be pretty embarrassed about what your posting. The same cluster-f#*k happened here a few years ago with the Mustang guys and the result was a lot of bans and hurt feelings. It's a game with no winners. |

I felt it drove better than my non 1LE SS. One thing I can say for sure the SRT8 had the best brakes out of any other car I owned, even better then my current one.

Were they the 4 piston or 6 piston brembos? I know the current scat pack has 4 pistons in the front and the current SRT gets the 6 piston fronts.

1. 2016 Camaro SS 2. Charger SRT8 3. Mustang GT 4. Subura wrx sti ...... I am not counting the gt350 track oriented car, that will go into other track vehicle segments. But I believe we all agree it seems the Camaro will put on a mixed personality which is a good step forward. It needed it. As for Mustang, how will Ford outperform the Camaro, what can they do to the coyote engine to get 60lb tq? Turbo it? That would ruin the spirit of the car. |

The problem with 2ss vs 1ss or Premuim vs non-premuim is that I don't care about added gimmicks. I don't want gauges at the bottom of the dash or a hud or a so called 'premuim audio system', neither do I need leather. If I wanted leather I would get a proper luxury car. Cloth will do fine for me. I would get a 1ss with premuim Bose audio(if it actually is decent), interior ambient lighting and that's it interior wise. Then I would include MRC, black gloss wheels. That will come out at about 41K. |

As far as I know, you can't get Bose on a 1SS. |
