Leave it up to one of the 5.0 Mustang guys here (me) to post this. Ford finally put a great engine/trans package together for the new Mustang and it should be VERY competitive to the new Camaro SS. 5.0 V8, all aluminum, 4 cams, 6 speed shifting - whats not to love? For Mustang guys, this is what we've been waiting for for awhile!

Johnny -- Good post!

Only one problem with it.... LOL.... it still LOOKS like a Mustang. IMHO (owning an '06 Mustang) is that when they changed body style - they killed it. No way would I buy one now... I'd be CAMARO all the way...

I disagree, I love the new mustang. the 2010 are my favorite since the fox body coupe. The interior on 10's are much better then 06's IMO

I agree with the interior statement. I rented a convertible last month when in Hawaii and liked it MUCH more than the '06... but I HATE the new design... and the sales of the Mustang show I'm not alone.

Hard to describe why you do or don't like something... but I would say it this way:

To me - the '06 (as an example) looks exactly like the "old" Mustang but drawn with a fresh pen.... the new Mustang looks like they just HAD to change something but didn't know why.. When I look at it - it doesn't invoke that classic Mustang "bad to the bone" look.
