i just grabbed the magazine
i myself under-estimated this new GT

and the LS3 has crazy potiential

but ford did its job

It came out first in the overall opinion of the magazine writer, but it was still slower. Everyone is going to have different opinions on what is too low or too high, too noisey or too quite, good quality or bad quality, etc. But the fact that one is faster than the other is indeed a fact, and you can't argue that.

I know some people say I'm a Mustang hater and a Camaro swinger, but that's not true (part of it anyways). I love Mustangs. I really love the '10 Mustang. I haven't seen much of it, but I'm digging the upgrades they have made to the interior.

But, honestly, things like that (the interior quality) and ride quality, visibility, etc. really aren't that important to me. Hell, if they where, than I wouldn't have the car I do now. Me, personally, I'm just concerned about strait line speed. That's why the new Camaro is the better car to me.

Just because a bunch of magazine testers think the Mustang is all around better doesn't meen much to me. The Mustang is a very popular car. For all I know the panel of testers could have had some big Mustang fans on it that went in to the testing with a biased opinion. They even mention at the start of the article that a few of the testers hate the way the Camaro looks.

And maybe I missed it, but I didn't see any 1/4 numbers from the test. I'm willing to bet that the Camaro and Mustang had close 0-60 and E.T.s, but I would like to see the trap speeds and 60' times. I'm willing to bet there is a big difference between the two cars in those categories.

Word.

The surprising thing to me was that the mustang didn't get badmouthed as it usually would against such highly anticipated other vehicles.

When i buy a car i look at the overall value in it. not just speed. you can make any car fast. and the mustang has always been a better overall buy than the other 2. more bang for the buck
