I sat in the Camero at the Chicago auto show. It was like sitting in an extra deep bath tub. The feeling in the drivers seat was terrible and so was visibility. Interior was nothing to brag about. Mustang is the better choice.

I thought they were cheaper than that but if the SS is 45K, I have to agree, the GT500 is a better deal. That thing is pure sex!!! Local dealer has one in stock and the sticker is 50000 + LOA mark up of 5k.

I think the Camaro interior is cartoonish. Mustang has a better lay out hands down, imo.

Still glad chevy released the car. We needed more domestic choices. At least now we have the vette, camaro, mustang, and challenger. The question is for how long.

Its also made of that tonka tuff hard plastic while the new Mustang sports soft touch materials and real aluminum on the dash and higher quality leather seats. That and the fit, finish and build quality on the Mustang makes the Camaro feel like crap.

That is one ugly car. Inside and out. IMHO, no matter how bad the Mustang interior has been, it has always been better than the Chevy. However, that is one nasty sounding exhaust note!

The car does sound sick. I honestly thought I was the only person who didn't like the interior. Just don't like the layout and feel.

actually the dealers here in VA will drop the price to 37,899 out the door for the SS's... I only know cause I helped close the deal for a buddy of mine... and I prefer the interior of the camaro over the 06 Saleen I have...
