funny I found it completely opposite.

You must like POS Lambo's as well.

My experience in a Shelby with better springs scared the shit out of me. It floated all over the place and had no feel at all.

Man so Hostile.

I drove them literally back to back on an autocross course and found the Camaro felt like a boat in direct comparison. Trust me we drove them hard(put the camaro in limp mode some how??) Not to mention you cant see sh!t out of the chev not that you buy a car like that for visibility.

But to each their own, I guess I can't fight my obvious Ford Fan blood, after all its the business I've been brought up in.

The harder these two companies fight the consumer will be the ultimate winner, especially when a stock mustang with a stick axle will hang with an M3 around a track.

I don't disagree about visibility. The Camaro isn't good there.

I carry no hostility.

I agree the consumer wins either way for 30k plus. It's like a free sports car. My GT3 engine costs more.

I know, it sure is funny when you put it into relative terms like that...

I'm a Chevy guy soooo.....

My whole life I thought a yellow Z/28 with black stripes would be awesome. Then freakin' Transformers comes out and everyone says the same thing. I'm glad Chevrolet is having so much success.

I haven't had a chance to drive the Mustangs but I have been in the Camaro SS a bit. I am sure the Mustang is great, it is actually faster and lighter, but ultimate performance isn't always everything. I just love the looks of the Camaro. And the IRS comfort on road. And despite its weight it feels good, although I really need to get it to some canyons some time. The ZL1 is going to be otherworldly with the MRC.
