Absolutely so. For me, 45K (I got supplier pricing), I could not find another car that tickled the same feeling as the SS. NPP exhaust, MRC, A8. All the tech goodies. I think S550 is amazing. Nothing wrong with it at all for its price point. I just doesn't give me that feeling as much as the SS.
I had the same feeling when I drove the 5th Gen for the first time...I was in love.
There are finally starting to show up around the NOVA area...most dealers only had LTs to start and the SS they had were pre-orders.
Agreed...millions use them to make informed decisions. At the end of the day the average buyer is not going to be coming to a Mustang or Camaro forum. They are going to be reading magazines/magazine websites/USA Today/Consumers Reports/etc to figure out what makes a car better then the other.
Im not an average consumer by any means. While i favor mustangs i would buy whatever is superior for the racing i do and it sure isnt the camaro. Your opinion of "heavily in favor" is as subjective as mine. Dont pass that off as facts.
Dude. Easy hahaha. You are in the fringe minority. Very very very few people buy cars for their potential to go deep in the single digits down the 1320.
I wasn't rude about it..but I have sworn I'd never buy a car from that dealer...dated their parts delivery driver for about a year and a half though! :lol:
Im easy. You might be adding tone to text that isnt there. However its getting old seeing him say nothing postive about ford. I know im not an average buyer. But what one person feels is superior to someone else may not be. Its all subjective. He always puts a spin on it that the camaro is the bestest car that ever was. Its best for HIM. Thats what hes forgetting. To assume that "average" car buyers give two craps about what a performance magazine says is hilarious. They dont. Now the average casual enthusiast. Sure you bet. With that said, even being a casual enthusiast youre still a minority. Me being a hardcore racer, even more so. Either way both of us are minorities. So his idea of what the average buyer as a majority is, or does thats what hes misconstrued.
I think the average consumer would think that the Camaro is better because it is getting a ton of accolades that the GT has not gotten. I think that is all he is trying to say. But I could be wrong.
Does accolades help pay the payment? Does it help you have more fun in the car? Does it win races? Does it actually mean its better for every persons needs? Does it help you get to work better? Does it teleport the car to an island? Does it print money for the owner? Its as useless as those jd power awards.
To the average consumer, the accolades say "Car A is more fun to drive, it has more power, it gets better MPG, it has more standard equipment, it does A, B, C better, Etc." That does not mean a whole lot to enthusiasts like us, but to some who know no better, it does. When Chevy starts to run their ads saying, its won awards from A B C D, some are going to be like "hey, I want something that has won awards." Sad.....but very true.
I hate that shit. People are so dense. Also, for the love of god, people are far too trusting. Like businesses dont lie, or the president or the priest down the street.
