Wow your cars sexy........

LS3SSRS · 05-20-2010, 10:01 PM

never liked mustangs all that much...i was gonna build a 383 and restore a 65 nova 2dr until i saw that the camaro was coming back. that 350, 4 bolt main is still on the same engine stand lol

Camaro743 · 05-20-2010, 10:05 PM

I considered one for like 3 seconds, then I realized that in those 3 seconds I saw about 10+ mustangs in every single parking lot lol, so then I went to a chevy dealer later in the the year and drove the Camaro for the first time ever and it was unbelievable, and the RJT was my favorite color ever, and they just happened to have it as a color option

Hicompression · 05-20-2010, 10:05 PM

I sold a 2006 Mustang GT and a 1991 Kenne Bell supercharged notchback coupe to buy my 2010 SS. Regrets? Absolutely not. I did keep one Mustang though. I've still got my '03 Mach 1.

bigd1276 · 05-20-2010, 10:05 PM

Yep. I test drove a few and came real close. Couldn't pull the trigger. Then I happened upon the Camaro Concept at a car show in 2007. I decided at that point I would wait it out. I had owned 3 Camaros in the 80's but my last sports car was a 98 Mustang GT.

Greenpiece · 05-20-2010, 10:07 PM

I did buy a 2005 Mustang GT right when they first came out, and I still have it. But once I saw the Camaro concept, I knew that would be my next car. It's probably just a few months away now, which gives me time to figure out which color. They all look good to me.

Never if the Camaro never came back I would have picked up 1 or 2 GMMG cars to add to my Camaro collection.

My first car was a Mustang, I loved Mustangs, I still do Love Mustangs and always will. But the 5th gen Camaro just grabbed me more then the current Mustang did (and really any Mustang since the SN95's).

acatlover13 · 05-20-2010, 10:11 PM

Actually..it never even crossed my mind. I do love the new Mustang styling (and I've said that for years), but putting money out for one....didn't even consider it!

LookingGlass · 05-20-2010, 10:11 PM

I had been planning on buying a Bullitt Edition Mustang when I got the news of the new Camaro.
