$46,000.
This was a fair comparison.. and by any means it's historically accurate. The Camaro was always faster than the Mustang stock, but the Mustang always sold more units. All three of these cars are neat, but my personal order is 1) Mustang GT, 2) Camaro SS, 3) Dodge Challenger R/T. I get Motor Trend at home, and they were saying the new Mustang is tuned so well that the live axle is almost nonexistent. One writer even mentioned that the new Mustang has the "best steering in an American car ever."
I have no problem with the Camaro, but mainly I like the image, poise, and performance choices of the Mustang better. The 2010 Mustang is truly built for the driver: you can choose different rear gear ratios straight from the factory, upgraded brakes, more aggressive exhaust, and better suspension all from the factory (not included Ford Racing Parts with full warranty... Whipple Supercharger anyone?). The Mustang also takes the cake for me because it's significantly lighter than both the Camaro and Challenger. Overall I thought it was a good and fair comparison... there is something to be said of GM's former self. Those LSx engines are definitely a force to be reckoned with.
