ORIGINAL: JD1969
The release date is 2009, alot could happen both good and bad in that amount of time. The reality is that wheather you like it or not the new Camaro could be a good thing for Stang owners, it might force Ford into putting more power into the Stang.

JD, I hope they do come out with a Crapmaro and hopefully they'll not make the same mistake they did with the GTO and make a 400HP sunbird with Z-28 emblems.
I doubt Ford is going to increase the HP in the stang if the Camaro comes into production. We all know Ford was never competitive when it came to HP during the last 2 decades so why change now?
Imagine, it'll be great to revive the Pony wars with the Stang, Camaro and Challenger.

Hmmm, I'm kinda curious to see what they make it look like- I'm sure it'll be retro, but then again if this comes out in like 4 years, it may be totally different.
I would still never buy one because it's a maro. [:@] I'm curious to see the challenger too.

To me that's good news. Although a little far away yet. Between ford, GM and chrysler the imports should suffer a little bit. It'll also give us a lot more choices @ the time of getting some amreican muscle. Good for GM.

They don't have to do anything to the motor/looks, they can just start back from the '02 body style if you ask me. I just want forged internals. I'll decide the power adder myself. Wonder how many 800-1000rwhp street cars you'd see...

Eh, as early as '87 the Camaro's had more hp. Before that they had an equal amount. By '89 they had 240hp and it increased to 245hp before the debut of the III gen LT1. I guess in a roundabout way, '93 was really the first year that the Camaro seperated itself from the Mustang. But from '87-'92 the Mustang and Camaro were fairly similar in performance.
