The color thing he is talking about is just stupid. All three cars will have some similar colors. Who cares.
I like the look of the exhaust tips even though they are bigger than the actual tailpipe.
The Camaro looks awesome but I thought the exact same thing after sitting in it about the windows and the view out being very small and cramped.
I love the interior even though it is controversial. I didn't have any problems with headroom.
The trunk opening is quite small. Another thing I noticed. I'm sure that will be a problem for me at some point.
I'm still getting one in spite of the few shortcomings I see. I'm just waiting on something.

WOW, I don't know why I read all of that garbage that this guy wrote. I mean, I know everyone is entitled to their opinion (oh sorry mustang owners, entitled means qualified for or allowed or worthy of, just incase some of you are reading this 
) but to pick on things like; they should use their own colors, that is stupid! Hey, why did they make WHITE mustangs, I mean can't ford think of their own colors? Same idea! How many NEW or different shades of a color can their be. No matter what you will have some one saying that color looks like this color.....HELLO they are almost the same. No matter how many shades of brown you know what you have, it will still be you know what. Why does did GM make a black Camaro?? You know there is a black Challenger and a black mustang, for that matter there is a black honda civic!! As you can tell that color comment kind of got to me. The other comments that he is saying are issues, well if he would have understood how the are was structured then he would have half his answers as to why the car is what it is! And don't comment on "blind spots blind spots" or that it would suck for a daily driver, until you have ACTUALLY DRIVEN THE CAR!!!
I think what we really have here is a mustang owner jealous of the idea and, as we would argue, the fact that the Camaro is a better then their mustang.
And lastly, let's just wait and see the number of units sold, because I have no doubt in my mind the Camaro will out sell the Mustang!!!!
P.S. And don't get me on any spelling or grammer mistakes I might have made, because they happen, even more so when you are pissed off at a mustang owner!!!

Besides, if anyone has a claim on originality for orange paint, it's Chevy.

You know, I get really irritated about this whole Camaro VS. Mustang thing, from the Mustang guys. the arguement usually ends with one question. How many Camaro's have you seen with a Ford motor? Let's compare that numbedr to how many Mustangs you've seen that are Chevrolet powered. Jesus, quite a few companies actually make Mustang K-members specifically for Chevrolet power plants! Show me in any catalog a Camaro K-member that is made for a Ford "boat anchor".
Are there Fords that run good? Of course. It all depends on if you want to spend twice as much to get them to run, and I hope you like working on them alot.
Why do you think almost 80% of the Ford street rods have Chevrolet power? Simple...Because guys don't want to take the risk of ruining a $5000 paint job because they have to work on the engine every time they cruise for more than 10 miles.

I'm sorry... but the sad thing is about Mustangs is when you go to the strip and your '95 Z is running 13.80s and an '08 Mustang GT is running 14.40s... and then the Mustang owner's wife is looking at me 'cause her husband was just whooped by a girl driving a 15 year old car.

Those complaints make the guy sound like he has a small figure and soft hands. Maybe the dude is a lady? "It will have blind spots, drives, big and the steering wheel has a rough edge" is what I heard. Along with the complaint about the exhaust. What stock performance car these days doesn't have a cosmetic exhaust tip on it? And the door inserts -- maybe they'll scratch if you have long fingernails, but that's a region of the door I don't think I ever touch. Open it from the outside, pull it in with the handle. Reverse on exit.

If he wants a more practical daily driver, there are many nice minivans to choose from. They will not have "sharp edges" on the steering wheel and will have much better access to the cargo area. Many people have noticed that the trunk is ample is size but the opening is small. Chevy could have designed a roll-up overhead door but it may have altered the lines of this very sexy car slightly. Trunk access.... BFD.

Kind of funny to read. I think most people over there are open minded but we all have our biases. Neither the 2010 Camaro/Challenger/Mustang are perfect but we should all be very glad and realize how lucky we are in this day in age with the economy the way it is to still have 3 American V8 RWD coupes available. This won't last forever.We all know there is no winner to this banter.

To be honest it is really hard to see stop lights in the new Camaro, way worse than the firebird.
I drove a V6 2LT a while back and the visibility was the only thing that was disappointing, it drove like a champ! Even with the V6
The other thing was the Screen in between the gauges defaults to a digital speedometer because the real one is too damn hard to read
