Default The New Camaro vs New and Old Mustangs

Ok so we all know what the New Camaro got. But my question is it gonna kill all the new and old Mustangs?? I love the little 4.6l DOHC but will it be enough to over come the Camaro?

I hate to say it, but that thing looks pretty mean! (I might have to drive one to see if the grass is greener on the Darkside.)

actually i was reading the latest issue of Motortrend and they compared the camaro mustang ad challenger and despite the huge advantage in horsepower in the camaro and challenger the mustang accelerated faster than the challenger and didnt fall too far behind camaro.that same mustang is only at about 315hp. i think a modded 4.6 can still hang.

Well, 13.0 in the 1/4 mile is no joke, that's gonna outrun most stock cars. I saw one friday night, but the guy wouldn't get on it. I like them, but I'm perfectly happy with my Mustang, and it'll probably be a while before any performance parts are available. Besides, for the cost, get a kenne bell and go by so fast you suck the paint off them.

The 6.2L is a mean powerplant. I think ford should have done more with the 4.6l DOHC instead they just made a single cam 3v. Im happy to see they made a New 5.0 thats gonna rock the Camaro but being a Owner of a Mach1 with a 4.6l im gonna love it!
