It's actually a nice car. I'm not a fanboy of any auto maker. I've had many of each manufacture. That being said......
I thought the interior was decent. Looked pretty sharp as this was a black car with the red interior. It could use a little more headroom. The heads up display should be an option for us mustang owners. The Bose stereo sounds quite a bit better than my 401 shaker with sub. Angle of screen kind of points downward and is a little awkward. Vents didn't bother me at all.
The fit and finish was about the same as any other gm car. Just OK. About the same as my GT.
Biggest thing to me was the power. It definitely has more low end torque and acceleration compared to my GT. Stock for stock, I'd easily be toast. The steering feels heavy and I thought the ride was clunky.
Just for curiousity, they would give me $29,750 for mine on trade in. I thought that was a decent price. Mines a loaded 15 GT premium 6 spd with the 20" wheels and has 3600 miles. Msrp on Camaro was $47480 and they came down to $37k. GM has 20% off or 0 for 72 on the Camaro. Salesman said they could do even better on my car. These prices were without any negotiating and there would be some room to move.
I don't think I'll look into it any further as I like the looks of the mustang more, But my wife and kids like the looks of the Camaro better.
I know some of you are thinking "just mod the mustang". My dealers are tough around here. They gave me a tough time over the roush exhaust for crying out loud. Both dealerships said zero warranty with ANY tune or modification. I won't play the they have to prove it game. They can make it pretty crappy for the owner.
Long story short....it's a nice car all around with OK visibility and has a ton of power.
