search ebay for this item #220357080347. its a nice silver one and he's asking for 43.9k but i'll bet he'll settle for 40k. If you look at the c6 z06 history on ebay, you'll see that they do sell for 40k and sometimes a little less. There are other c6's on there now that will probably sell for about 40k. And believe me by the time the camaro comes out, the price might drop another grand or so for an 06 z06.

my mistake, thats still not within 5k. I didnt realize they were selling them for 31k; i thought they were 35-40k. I'd still rather shell out an extra 9k for a 7.0l

Some good pics of the production SS interior:

I'll be honest, the SS seats rock. But I find the forward instrument cluster to be rather unattractive. What's with the two giant humps for the speedo and tach??? The rest of it is fairly uninspiring....seems quite basic despite how amped up it looked in preproduction photos. Very strange layout.

I like the gauges built into the console. The seats are nice. Radio looks funny, wheel looks cheap, and the gauges look stupid. I also like the shifter.


If I had to choose between the 10' Camaro and 10' Mustang, I would pick the Camaro. I like the way it looks. It actually looks like the classic camaros. The new Mustang looks nothing like the classic mustangs.

Screw all this Camaro vs Mustang talk, GTO pwns all!!!!!!!
































j/k.



Seriously, though- Most buyers of either car are going to be loyalists and wouldn't consider the other regardless of how good it is. Just how it is. Looks are subjective, performance will be no contest, so it's obvious what will bring most customers into Ford showrooms. I personally believe the new Stang is great looking and a step in the right direction, it's just a shame it's still down on power. Excluding the new Camaro, the Mustang will have a lot of cars to compete w/. Price wise, the WRX and Cobalt SS; class wise, the 370Z and upcoming Hyundai Genesis. Me, I'd take a new Camaro over a new Mustang, but it's by a much narrower margin than I'd have guessed. But in reality, the '05-'09 GT's are just as good and much cheaper. And LS2 GTO's are going to be just as fast and much cheaper than the new Camaros. So w/ the new cars, all you're really paying for is being able to have one of the first ones. Once they've been out a little while, the novelty will wear off and the hype will go away. Too many people get caught up in the new car itch imo. I'd keep my GTO over buying either of these cars. And if I were in a position to buy a new Camaro the way I'd want it, I'd buy an E46 M3 instead, or as someone else already mentioned, go all the way and buy a used C6 Z.

oh my god gross

thats horrible. the drivers side is very cluttered, and the the passengers side is a blank slate. the radio is just an odd shape


the only thing i like about that is the steering wheel and possibly the seats

Honestly, scg.........I'd take an LS2 GTO anyday over the new Camaro. Hell, if I could have found a good deal on one back in 05 I might have one instead of the GT. I compare the Goat with the Camaro, and other than the LS3....the GTO has it hands down. IMO........it looks better and has a nicer interior. Plus.....it's actually LIGHTER.

I agree that the loyalist are gonna buy their fav no matter what. I do agree that the 2010 GT isn't really worth it unless all you care about is creature comfort. But if Ford does bring the heat with a new quad cam V8 after 2010, I'm gonna have to side with my Mustang loyalist buddies.....and go for the 5.0
