The one thats priced lower and has more "cool" options on the base package

Do a side-by-side and front comparo and I think you'll see more in common with the Challenger.

Not that it looks like a mustang to me, but someone out there might buy a camaro because it looks like a mustang to them

Its a pony car, so its gonna have the same general shape. Put a 1st gen Camaro next to a late 60's stang and you'll see the same thing. Same with the Fox bodys and third gens. Same general shape. Main thing I like is the Camaro concept looks lower and sleeker while still retaining the pony car shape.

Woah! You think a Fox Mustang has the same basic shape as a third gen? The two could not be any more different in the history of both vehicles.

Personally, I think the new Mustang and the Camaro concept look much more similar than I was expecting. However, the Camaro is the clear styling winner of the two in my opinion.

By the way, the first words out of a collegues mouth when he saw the Camaro concept was, "It looks like a Mustang". He's not a car guy at all. To be honest, it does look much more like a Mustang that I expected, but only compared to the newest model Mustangs, not the classic Mustang.

Either way, the car is very, very cool looking.

Had two 4th Gen drivers at work yesterday say it looked like a Stang and then they wrinkled up their noses.

So go figure.

I agree here. The same people who will look at the new Camaro and say "It looks like a Mustang" will look at a 69 Camaro and say it looks like a 69 Mustang. They are cars in the same class, so yes, they have a lot of similarity, much like a 1964 Galaxie and a 1964 Impala look similar and a 2006 Accord and 2006 Camry look similar. I mean, we want our ponycars to look like ponycars, don't we?

I know this, judging by the greenhouse, the Camaro has more rear head room for back seat passengers. Thats my biggest beef with the current mustang now, I have to bend over to ride in the backseat of one.

Which is why I'll never ride in one again unless I can sit up front lol

RhinoSS

out of curiosity... were they Camaro guys before the 4th Gens? Are they familiar with the 1st Gens? I can't really see any true Camaro guy saying it looked like a 'stang.

WHAT??? a 69 Camaro and a 69 mustang look NOTHING alike. Not one bit. The 70's Dodge's had more in common with the first gen camaros then the mustang of that error did. The shapes were not even similar.

HAZ-Matt

I would not get the two cars confused, nor do I think they really look alike. However I agree that the both use the "classic muscle car" formula and are a similar configuration.

I don't really think the car is all that retro. It could probably pass for a 2068 Camaro more easily than a 1968 one.

I disagree from the standpoint of the point I'm trying to make. I'm not saying one is a carbon copy of the other, but I do think that to the average non-enthusiast, they can look as much alike as the new Camaro and Mustang do. Round headlights? Check. Deep set blackout grille? Check. Long hood/short deck? Check. Side scoops? Check.





At least around here, many of the same people who will look at the new Camaro and say "It looks like a Mustang" will look at a 69 Camaro and say it looks like a 69 Mustang. I had several coworkers say "That Camaro concept looks like the new Mustang." Shown the above pictures, they say "oh, those look a lot alike too."

I'm not saying that is MY opinion, as I don't think that the new Camaro looks much like the new Mustang other than the traditional traits that make it look like a ponycar.

That 'error'?
