I will give the camaro it’s engine, it is nice. But for the price, the mustang is 10x the car a camaro is. the camaro was 3 years late in the beginning and has been playing catchup ever since.

mustang came out in 64, camaro came out in 67  
it simple math really  
64-67=3  
3= years the camaro was behind the mustang

I hate the seats in the camaro’s and the interior is horrible compared to a mustang, you can’t really debate that.

i think that fbods handle pretty well for the size of the car. in the case of the 4th gens…no, they dont have IRS, but the higher-end mustangs werent blowing them away at handling, its close. u cant even compare the engines unless u thro a cobra into the mix also. as far interior, i dont see anything bad about the 4th gen interior. its definatley not junky at all. its pretty clean and basic, and doesnt feel cheap in my eyes. no, it might not be on the level of the newest GM cars (GTO, C6, ect) but its still good. i would hardly call the camaro a hunk of shit w/ a good engine. :rolleyes:

I think another factor was the price, from what i remember a mustang GT was like 25k when a Z28 was around 28K or more.

I don’t think GM will bring back the camaro, it didn’t sell well when it was here and will not sell well if they bring it back. They need to realize the mustang can nevar lose and design something completely new(with a new name also).

77redneck is kinda right. Camaros are cheap cars. They had 1997 Sunfire interiors till the day they stopped being produced. Sure the higher end models had decent leather and some other stuff, but the dash, paneling, gauges, instruments, radio were all that of an economy car. Most of us are more than willing to trade that all for the awesome performance the car had, but the majority of the demographic didnt. The Mustang was a little better in that department, and it had more of a sexy figure, and its marketing campaign was a lot better. To the lay person, it was just cooler to have a Mustang than a Camaro. Hopefully Chevy will spend a little bit more money on making it a complete car instead of cheaping out on the minor details.

actually rumor states, that the Camaro will come back on the Sigma-Lite chassis, which is modified GTO/CTS chassis. So chances are, it may actually be produced by Holden as well.

I really like the exterior look on the T/A and the camaro before they stopped producing them. But it does seem that alot of gm’s cars interiors are kinda blah. Oh well i guess the performance makes up for the small things such as the interior.
