What made you choose the Mustang over the Camaro? Was it just looks? Or was it something else? I'm really curious and i'm not looking to start a war/debate, just why you chose a Mustang over a Camaro. Please only reply if you're going to have serious answer, not a "Chevy Sucks Yo".

I didn't really chose the mustang over the camaro, I've never really even considered looking at a camaro for various reasons.

I was going to get a mach1 but I see allot of mustangs on the road

Mainly because the mustangs look cooler IMO. Also, I drove both (SS) and GT before buying, the SS is a much faster car... (obviously) but as for as compfiness, GT has it hands down IMO. Also, the GT being 4k cheaper did help a little.

Well personally I hate the way the Camaros look. They look like a catfish[&:] I can tolerate them in black with some nice wheels but still. I actually wanted and was looking at LS1 T/As. Even wrecked they still were a pretty penny so I bought the GT since it was cheaper. I lost a T/A at an auction by around $300. I wish I had bought it now but I love this car too. I just like the T/As because of the LS1 obviously, but a bigger attracting factor is the fact that you can get them with T-tops;)

Never even considered a camaro. Plus I don't have a mullet. :D

It came down to looks and exclusivity for my Cobra. when I bought it I was also looking at a 2000 Z28 which was 2k cheaper and felt faster, but wasn't as rare as the Cobra. It wasn't until I saw the Cobra with it's top down that I chose it over the Camaro.

the sound of mustang's is pure sex

15 posts and that's the best you can come up with? This must be the slow time of the year.

I was looking at the camaros, but I diddnt think they were fairly priced in my area.....My family diddnt want me to get it because they said it was ugly.....I diddnt entirely fall in love with the z28s...i fell in love with the ws6s , but all the 02 ws6 are like 19 k here......I also wanted a 02 maxima but i diddnt like it. But when i drove my mustang i fell in love with it....

Just wondering but how did a maxima get in there with a mustang and a WS6 lol?

I wanted a 60's era muscle car. After looking for months and findng 20 thoudand dollar pieces of crap I started looking at newer models. Once I found out how much performace I could get out of a newer car and still have it a reliable comfy cruiser I changed my mind. After seeing the articles im MMFF and what the mustangs were capable of the decision was pretty easy. The comaros are pretty nice but I just liked the mustang better.

I think the Evo/STi would've been better choices for your 4 door needs;)

i played it safe and got both;)......mustang> Camaro in looks....Mustang + Blower> Camaro

the mustang was 3k cheaper and with that extra 3 grand in modsI can walk all over camaros and alot of other stuff. Plus camaros are ugly and I hate the interior.

I just bought my car last month it came down to these 2 cars.

-2000 SS, LS1 133,000 miles.

-2002 stang V6 40,000 miles.

They were the same prince around 8500-9000, i still kinda regret not getin the LS1, sorry to say i still love camaros ive had my 91 for 3 years but in 5 years when (hopefully) the mustang still has a long life ahead of it and the camaro breaks down everyweek, like mine does now, ill knw i made the right choice

I never even considered a camaro, ugly in my opinion. Now a trans am... beautiful. But if i was gonna go f-bod i wanted a LS1 and didnt feel like paying that much for just a weekend cruiser, so i got the 5.0!

Hey, thanks for being a jackass. Dont like this thread? Don't reply. The world could use less assholes like yourself.

*Edit: Also, I'm debating which car I should buy.


I like the look of the Mustang and the Camaro/Trans Am both. The Camaro has more power out of the box. So i'm really leaning towards that, unless you guys know of a way to find a cheaper (99+) GT that i can make faster than an LS1, with less money. Oh yeah.. T-tops also make me like the f-body more.

Even stock LT1's make more than a stock GT...

some of the voices in my head were telling me to get a mustang, and some of the voices in my head were telling me to get a camaro.... the ones telling me to get a camaro were speaking in a different language so I got really confused... panicked.... and went with the stang



or you know... I just walked onto a dealer lot and said "that one!"

Pretend that your favorite car has been a Mustang since you were about 5 years old. Also pretend your parents had a '85 GT that they enjoyed, and then pretend that you were in love with classic Mustangs, pretend your dad bought a '72 Mach 1 while you were a junior in high school, and then pretend that you found a Mustang *which we are pretending is your favorite car* in blue, which happens to be your favorite color, and then pretend that it was an EXCELLENT price, and on top of that, pretend it was on the first page of the first Auto trader magazine you were looking at once you decided you'd spend your money on a Mustang.

If you pretend all this, I think the answer is pretty simple.

If insurance wasnt high I could of picked up a cobra,I can afford the payment but not the insurance lol. I wouldnt mind a Z28 or SS camaro but I chose the stang because it just looks better.

I didn't choose the Mustang it chose me!

Because there were no 6 speed Trans - Ams in my area at the time I wanted/needed to buy a car.

if you want a fast car stock buy a z28 if you want speed and looks buy a mustang

I just love fox mustangs. Love the looks, love the 5.0. Only camaro that looks good was the 87-92, but theyr slow as balls. The newer maro/TA just dont do it for me. Neither do the sn95 stangs for that matter. I wanted a car that i liked the looks of, that had a v8 with potential.

Doesn't mean they are the better motor. They respond well to nitrous, but they have their problems...

I was actually looking at 3rd gen Camaros before I bought my car, but all the ones in my area were rotted and the T-tops leaked. My dad pulled into my driveway with my current 'bird and I loved it. The 5spd, T-tops, solid body and low price made me buy it. Even though it has 186,000 miles, she still runs like near new. The color could have been better, but the ladies love the purple. So I knew this had to be my first car, and I'm glad it still is.

the interior of an f-body seems so forign to me, i could not picture driving one of those everyday.

Back in the 99-02 timeframe I drooled all over the LS1 WS6's.......but I was married and didn't have a chance in hell of ever owning one. And then in 04 the S197 stangs came out just as I was getting separated and had money to burn again.........the rest is history.

The Camaro never made much of a ripple in my pond, and the fact that my best buddy has the whole "GM is the shiznit---Camaros are badass---Fords suck" mentality didn't make me very prone to switching over to his side. I'll own a Camaro when he starts hatin on them.............and when they become better looking and more affordable than a Mustang GT.;)

In 2003 I was looking at both the 2002 Stang GT and the 2002 Camaro Z28 and they were comparably priced(Trans Ams were too $$$). I believe the most important part of the car is what's under the hood, so I bought the Mulletmobile.
Now I want an S197 GT.

I have owned A LOT of F-bodies and I just wanted a change. I love the way the stangs sound. Obviously I didn't get one because of the horsepower. I really like the way my Cobra feels and sounds. It's a really versatile car and the Modular engine is really amazing when you think about it. That little 4.6 makes just as much HP as the big 5.7s that I used to drive. I do have to say though, that a black WS6 is one bad looking mo fo. At the same time thoughthe Cobra and the Mach have that, "I could kill you if i wanted to" look about them. My wife still drives my IROC-Z though so it's all about AMERICAN MUSCLE!!!

Theres nothing wrong withgetting informationabout particular car from peoplewho own them over the internet. The forums are a great way to interact and share thoughts and ideas. I would trust the guys in here before some cheesy ass car salesman any day. All the dealerships want to do is sell you whatever they can. So I support, no...I encourage people to ask questions about vehicles purchases. You might learn something before you get stuck with a 4 year deal. But atleast everyone added their opinions and not some smart ass childishcoment. I won't call out names.:eek:

You guys *MrRogers and bluebeast* both get this for not knowing how to use the quote function...











BANNED!

My first car was a 93 lx notchback 4cyl and i fell in love with the car but it was getting old and stuff was falling off, so went bought the best car i could afford which now is a 2004 3.9 mustang i love this car too cause it has the same frame soo it drives just like my 93 lol, i never cared for chevys there too boring for me, there like old people cars,plus they look cheap too me for the price.

I'm not asking for them to choose one for me. I am asking WHY they chose one over the other. You're making yourself look stupid. Of course they'll say get the mustang, this is a mustang forum. Doesnt mean i dont like the Camaro better.

He has unmatched skill at doing that. Many try to compete but he is the king of moronic quotations.

i test drove both a 3.4L 1997 camaro and then my 2001 3.8L mustang...the mustang felt better and since my family has been a ford family, i felt likea traitor in that chebby :)it also ran like it had been threw off a cliff; i dont the 3.4L are any good but the 4.3L are pretty nice

It could not have been a 1997. The 1996+ came with the 3.8L.

The guy who had the 306, aluminum headed, nitroused, C4'ed, big stalled, slicked Foxbody couldn't get the title fast enough.

:D

camaro's didn't exist when i was buying, i wanted to buy new, not someone else's abused/neglected pos. my only regret: not buying a cobra or mach instead.

me personnaly i am born and raised chevy i was looking at camaros and trans ams for a while but were just a little high on price. than i saw my stang for sale. the woman did know what she had. had it listed for 3.5k, bought it for 2.5k cash only needed and alternator and tune up. been running strong ever since.

The camaro is a pos. The ls1 is a solid motor. It was a pretty easy decision, having always owned a Mustang since I got my license, and with the huge improvements of this new model.

mustangs look sexier than barbie cars(no offense), my friends got one and that's what we call it.

I've never even been in a newer Camaro, at least not an LS1. I've been in a few LT1's and they were decently nice, at least for what they are. I know my TA was nicer than any of the Camaro's and all the Mustang's I've ever sat in, including two s197 body style V6's that a couple of my friends have. I was figuring the GT's had pretty much the same interior....

As far as everything else goes, my car outperforms all the GT's in every category stock for stock. I don't see how the Maro's are POS's...?

Obviously, but why? I can understand not liking a car, but at least give a reason to.

Can't be the interior, motor, or suspension.

interior on a camaro is pretty much crap.no use arguing. subjective.

exterior, ahh yes, sleek GT vs a wedge. again, no use arguing since its subjective, but my personal view is that camaro's look like giant turds born onto this world just to offend me personally. you may think the same of mustangs, you are wrong of course, i have proof.

engine? how do you figure? just power output? not everyone lives to race believe it or not.

suspension. true, mustangs don't handle so good stock, not like camaro's are corner carvers stock. who the hell buys either of these cars for handling? kill yourself if you did.

Well, not a lot to argue with. Everything is your opinion....I've seen a ton of Camaro's that look flat out amazing. Any stock SS does for that matter...

BTW, who buys a pony car not to race?

1) i disagree

2) me

Does nothing? [8D]

ok, i admit, that one looks sweet. the front end mainly, not a fan of the rear though..

http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/2/web/314000-314999/314999_163_full.jpg

We definately have different taste in cars.

Where's the mullet? That one looks OK if he took the stripes off. I hate stripes on any car and the Camaros only look decent in black and sometimes red.

You're dillusional if you think the interior on the F-bodies are better. I don't know if the Firebirds/TAs are any different but the Camaros interior is a complete piece of ****. Both the F-bodies and the Mustang are pure plastic on the inside but the Mustang feels way more solid and put together. The Camaros plastic is always falling apart and it feels so damn cheap.

Eh...the TA's are supposedly the luxory editions of the f-bods. Honestly, I could give two ****s less. I'd run my **** with a bucket for the seat and in primer w/o a radio or anything else...as long as it's fast, I don't care. To each his own I guess.

I rode in my first Camaro this week and its faster than my S197 but the interior is not anywhere close to as nice as mine.

Here we go again. Lets get it over with...the fbody rules...Mustangs are crap.

I bought my car (first Mustang owned) because:


1. exterior
2. color...yes I like the lime
3. warranty
4. decent mileage for a V8 (save the "my fbody get better mileage" posts)
5.I love being the underdog
6. exterior

I do have to admit that the 04 Goat I looked at had a mmmuuuucccchhhh better interior....except for the HVAC knobs....

I bought my car over a mustang because of the performance first. Then because i love the look of the WS6, interior and exterior. I do also love the look of the Camaro SS, not really the Z28 though. Does this car look like crap, heres a view of the T/A interior, which i like a lot.

You're the only one saying that...hell, I'd own a Mustang, as stated in this thread, if it wasn't for the whole title thing. Of course, I'd prob never own a modular one

If you want to be the underdog you should have bought an import.

LOL, didn't want to beTHAT much of anunderdog. All things aside, all the arguing over subjective stuff just gets old. It seems like the same argument every other thread.


Although a civic or something on that line would have made more econimical sense with my commute. At least I can have a little fun.

98--We get the idea. You love your car. Stop flooding this and every other thread with how much you love it, how much better it is, and how everyone else is wrong to have other opinions, regardless of the truth or falsehood of any statements made. Also, you are crazy if you think any Fbody handles better than all Mustangs. I would rape you through the twisties, even with 200hp less, guarantee it. ;). Then again, you'd rape me on the straights...for now.

Pewter--I actually really like the exterior look of the WS6. If you put the interior of a new GTO in it, then it would be a pretty decent car all around.

I like the 02+ mustang exterior but not the interior the only thing I like when I'm inside a mustang is how the ram-air scoop looks[sm=bling.gif]

Pontiacs definately got the better end of the deal with the interior, it is soooo much better than the Camaro's.

I forgot to add, all my friends drive Mustangs. So I needed something different, and why not go with the enemy?

There's no denying that this thread was going to become a pissing match on what cars better.....So I will settle it for everybody...

Mustangs and Camaro's are crapp...So the Corvette rules..lol Maybe by this statement there will be a truce between the Stang and Maro guys in this threadand you can hammer away on Corvette owners for a while....Oh by the way I'll be logged off when the flaming commences...lol

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v358/ECondreras/Avatars/cliches_in_thread.jpg

the first time i sat in a camaro, I sat the same way i would sit in my GT, and i banged my leg in the center console...lol[:@]

I got to take a look inside a 05 GT the other day. I must say that i like the interior better than my WS6, it is definately an improvement. The New edges and earlier i didnt like at all, looked way to cheap to me. But the WS6 has the power i wanted and modability. At the time I bought my WS6 the 03 Cobras just came out and i really wanted one, but didnt wanna pay that much. If i didnt have my WS6i would either be buying a GT or a Vette, would rather have the vette, but i am sure i would like the GT alot also, especially for the lower cost.

When I was looking at 05s the interior upgrade package was rare to find. I looked at several without the package but ordered mine with. It is a night and day difference.

I do have to agree with the sentiments of several members who have posted in this thread thus far...................arguing over a subjective matter (opinions) is a complete waste of time. Someone asked for the reasons us mustang owners chose the mustang over the camaro......so consequently you're gonna end up with alot of "because I think camaros suck" responses. You tell me how you're gonna successfully argue with someone who thinks like that and then I'll tell you what a genius you are.;)

Adding to my own reasonings, several ppl have statedabout buying a certain car "because" everyone else they know drives the competition. I found that to be a partial motivating factor for my GT purchase as well. I am surrounded by GM fanboys at work, and my two best friends are pro-GM/anti-Ford dudes as well. So having a fast, nice lookin new Mustang GT that shames everything they all own (performance-wise) somehow manages to put a little smile on my face when I think about it.:)

Now I just need to stay one mod ahead of the two LS1 Z guys at my work that are determined that their rematches with me will go differently than the first runs.:eek:

I hate the way the WS6's look with those horrible hood scoops and and that horrible spoiler.

Yea right.....thats like the best part or a ws6

I agree, the frontend of the WS6 is an absolute modern muscle work of art. I was always a bit iffy on the tall spoiler......but not enough to steer me away from liking the car as a whole. Maybe one day down the road I'll look into one as a hobby track/street car........when asking prices are in the realm of the sane.[&:]

The hood is really bad ass, just don't like how the bottom "snouts" flow into the hood. Something seems just a bit off.

hmmm why i bought my mustang.... i had a 93 firebird formula.... not a bad car and I really liked it but it was an auto and **** was breaking so I wanted to get rid of it. needless to say, the only car in town with all the dealerships was a silver mustang gt, which I didnt even notice on the lot at all until i had driven a few other embarassing cars (sentra se-r specv), thank god I really didnt wanna buy that pile. so I took a peek into this silver mustang which now had my attention since it was a 5spd, leather, and looked damn good. so I drove it and the year stickers peeled off the window when i floored it so I had to buy it:D. I love ta's a lot but I really love the look of the 99-02 mustangs so I signed my old car away and I've been happy since. although I did get bored so the mustang forced me to get boost... and thats just too bad i spose....:)

If your talking about pewter's pic from above, I think his hood isn't snapped down all the way. Because the WS6's I've seen up close had a nice seamless flow from the bottom vents to the hood/hood vents.

Yeah, i think the WS6 hood is one of the baddest looking designs ever made, that was one of the big reasons why i bought it.

No its down all the way. They actually do not have a seamless look to them. Some people, myself included thought they did, until one day when i went out and relooked because i told someone they did. But nope, its exactly as the picture shows, a bit off i tihnk also, but bad ass looking none the less.

I think you are right. That is a nice car. I love the color. I think my favorite GM color is the Daytona Sunset Orange, of course I'm partial to "odd" colors.

Hmm.......that's odd. Maybe theone that I looked at a little while back had an aftermarket hood or frontend?.........or some kind of alteration? The nose/hood fit was really good on those.The cardid have a fair amount of aftermarket alterations/mods.......so its possible they tweaked or changed the frontend some kind of way.

It was probably a Firehawk. The firehawks have a different hood that make the lower snout seam perfectly into the upper snout. However, the Firehawk upper ram air snout is not as raised as the WS6 hood.

See here for example: http://www.pugetsoundpoci.com/photos/Puyallup05/Firehawk.jpg

EDIT: I found a better example: http://www.jabherbox.com/images/Firehawk.jpgFirehawk vs http://users.adelphia.net/~jwmathias/Silver2000WS6-A.jpgWS6. See the difference?

Hmmm I don't see why everyone loves the hood so much it looks like a cheap piece of **** to me just like all the other scoops Pontiac puts on all their cars.

I like it because it truly is unique. I have never seen another car with a style hood like the WS6 has, and it has a in your face feel about it. It makes the firebird look like its pissed off and wants to get in a bar room brawl with a bunch of drunken irishmen.

The hood just makes the car look mean. Look at an older t/a and it's stupid looking - then next to a black or a red WS6 with that hood, it just looks sick....

I got a Mustang because i've been a ford guy forever... nothing can compete with the modular motor sound. The look of it, the feel of it. In the end, I just liked "the drive" more...

I am torn between a Mac and a PC. I think I will go to a Mac forum and ask for opinions.:eek:

That's the same question I saw as well...

My creaky cloth interior sucks. There, I said it. My g/f's leather interior in her Camaro is definitely nicer but still not great.
That being said, I can't understand anyone, especially a man, who puts a car'sinterior that makes him feel all warm and fuzzy and whatnot ahead of the engine on his list of priorities. Maybe I'm just a retrosexual car guy, but that seriously blows my mind. [/soapbox]

I have owned Camaro, TA, and Mustang.
There are reasons, only 1 of these is available new today.

Because I spend 1.5+ hours in my car each day and would like to be comfortable. I'm not going to be uncomfortable just to make up the difference between the 3V and the LS1. I don't race to work. But come on Tommy, at least I got the GT and not the sixer... [sm=headbang.gif]

Yes, female buyers. Especially thosewho like V6 Mustangs because they're "cute."
Lime, the 3V wasn't an option when I was shopping. Things may have been different if it was.

I choose my 87 GT because I have always loved the look of the FoxBody. I have always wanted one.

I like the fact that there are a lot of options for me to mod the car as well.

If it wasn't an option when I was shopping, things would have been different for me as well. I'd have a red on red 04 goat M6.

i test drove both a 3.4L 1997 camaro and then my 2001 3.8L mustang...the mustang felt better and since my family has been a ford family, i felt likea traitor in that chebby :)it also ran like it had been threw off a cliff; i dont the 3.4L are any good but the 4.3L are pretty nice


It could not have been a 1997. The 1996+ came with the 3.8L.



must have been a 95 then because i know it was a late model and it was an odd number...

98--We get the idea. You love your car. Stop flooding this and every other thread with how much you love it, how much better it is, and how everyone else is wrong to have other opinions, regardless of the truth or falsehood of any statements made. Also, you are crazy if you think any Fbody handles better than all Mustangs. I would rape you through the twisties, even with 200hp less, guarantee it. ;). Then again, you'd rape me on the straights...for now.


Honestly, **** you. I still think you're full of **** on everything you've ever said about your car and I will continue to do so until you provide any shred of proof otherwise. Go buy a damn camera for crying out loud.

I'm sure your car will be faster than mine someday, at least, on the internet it will be. Afterall, you can still run 180mph with a 6.43 geared 300hp car...I can't compete with that ****.

And yes, stock for stock, the 3rd/4th gen f-bodies handle better....

all the camaros i have ever been in havnt felt...sturdy? i just think that the mustangs are a much more solid car and drive better

Hmm, why I chose the Mustang. I will try to make a long story short.
As I was groing up my father was into racing his cars at the track (both Ford and GM cars) and I was the only kid of 6 that wanted to get into the racing with him.
Time passed, I moved out started my own family yada yada yada, Then my dad bought the Mach1 and I just loved the car, he hardly ever drove it but when he did it was balls out.
A few years ago he passed away and the Mach was still in his name and the banks, well I could never stand to see someone else with the car so I paid off the loan on the car and took it.
As for Mustang vs Camaro/TA, I like them all, and its different strokes for different folks....

longevity of mustangs makes them hard to beat. my old 89 5.0 5 speed had 240,000 miles when i sold it to my brother in law, and he still drives it almost every day. the engine was never touched, and the t5 rebuilt one time. now, my 99 gt 5 speed has 70,000 miles and is still going strong. hope it does as good as the 5.0!

He actuallysent me a timeslip but I'll be damned if I can't find it. I think it was 13 flat, not too shabby.

Nothing like a good E*fight. Hit him! Hit him!!!

Ya that one was 13.1 @109.7mph, on a 2.03 60', with an 8.5 @ 85 1/8. Only mods were 4.10s, intake, and pulleys. Stock rubber. 98, you have PM.

I was going to buy a real nice looking camaro.. ls1 black, real lound nice sound, great interior/exterior......when we took it to the shop to get it checked out.. turned out to be a real bit piece of s***. wasnt firing off all cylinders and a whole list of things... few weeks later found my 91.... still kinda of wish the ls1 would have come through but i love my stang!!!!:D:D
