your whole 190hp v6 3.8 vs the Grandam's....175hp V6 3.4 lol thats sad.....I think it's time to put the stang out to pasture. lol. Hate to see how you do against F-body's[8D]
ummmmm, don't be mad cause the mullet mobiles are taking a dirtnap. so i take it you have a v6 Camaro. if you are in the north ATL area i would be happy to own you

lol yea I drive a 3.8 six im not trying to pick a fight with any of you ford people lol. Im just saying itsa Grandam for crying out loud lol. And if you hadnt heard my mullet Maro mobile is comeing back....might be takeing a dirtnap at the moment but its comeing back from the dead with from what I understand over 130ish more hp then the SN97's. Oh and nota bad little Sixer eather witha six speed trans and 235ish hp. Looks like its gota the Stang in the corner on stats. But I meen im not trying to pick a fight here. [sm=bounceybounce.gif]
The 79-93's were Fox bodies, the 94-98's were sn95's, the 99-04's were sn95 new edge, and 05+ are s197, just to clear things up.

And as I've said time and time again, "You can make a Mustang fast, but you can't make a Camaro look good."

ummm, and how do you know all this? there has been no such information realeased about that car yet. i mean hell yea it would be nice to have a sh*t load of power of the stangs but you dont know that for sure. hell GM probably doesnt even know for sure, with the way things change you never know what could be put in the thing.

edit: oh and to whoever said something about the price, im sure they will be priced just a little bit over the stang. they are made to compete with eachother. the camaro has just usually been faster.

I think there's a "Fungus Umung Us".

But the CamaroIS dead. The new car that's coming out that Chevy chose to slap a camaro badge on is not a camaro. It's super expensive, (atleast gonna hit 30 thou...)it's got a huge *** engine, and did I mention it's HIDIOUS. My mom is a die hard Camaro fan and sheHATES it. The Camaro just turned into a Corvette, but ugly. One of those cars that people compare when shoping for a Mustang. "So and so car is faster than the Mustang but who can afford it?" The true roots of the Camaro "Pony Car" are gone.

However, the Mustang has stayed true to it's roots, even upto current day. Nice, sporty looking cars that are pretty fast and you can actually afford to buy a new one on regular wages.(Except for the 76 to 82 models.. those things were butt.)Ford has done a good job, and if they stop making the Mustang it would devistate the car community.

oh... now that you mention it... that model of the Camaro does actually look like a catfish... LOL!!!

By the way, to the people who say that sixers are pointless, and eight cylinders is the way to go. Don't forget that Ford made an 85 hp V8 at one point in time.

It isn't that Mustangs are built poorly that they don't have that much hp, its just that Ford doesn't put what is really muscle worthy into the car. I'd rather have the 3.0L from the Ford Fusion with 221 HP than my 3.8L, but hey that's what Ford put in there.

were do you get that the new camaro isnt a real camaro?......I meen everything stated in this post is just B/S.
Lets break this post down shall we?


ORIGINAL: Reikat The Camaro just turned into a Corvette
The fourth gens were just Vette's witha live axel. Same engine same trans. lol....

lol ok.

ORIGINAL: Reikat It's super expensive, (atleast gonna hit 30 thou...)it's got a huge *** engine

"So and so car is faster than the Mustang but who can afford it?"
uhh classic camaro's had 427's in them and its been also stated by GM I belive that its going to boast 3 v8's and the DPI v6 engines supposedly a 5.3 (327) LS2 and possible the LS3 (possible LS3 mind you) for the higher end buyer? Just speculation.... But thats the only V8's that GM has out that would work that anyone I know can think of.

We can argue this the mustang does havea few 'black eye's' in it's history.....

alright first about the engine size... a pony car has and average sized engine it basically supposed to be the perfect car for everyone... the Mustang got up to 429 in a car that really didn't want it, and that's only because Chevrolet started comparing ***** sizes first. Bigger is not always better.

when I said the Camaro has just turned into the Corvette, I don't mean litterally... I mean it's gonna be an expensive car and not many peopel will buy them. Which is basically liek the Corvette although the Corvette actually has something going for them... they look good.

and about roots... take your model of camaro for example... it looks NOTHING like the first one.. other than the badge. All the mustang atleast slightly resembled the original whether it be trim or shape or what not.

also just so you know... none of the sixer camaros that I've ever seenin Charlottesville can beat my car. *shrug*


basically after the 80's the Camaro is basicallycrap with a fast engine (if it's a v8)... end of story...

lol chevy has almost all ways used big (bigger then mustangs) engines in there cars 60's 70's 80's 90's Chevy had at least a 350 SB asa option in all of the Maro's. It's not Chevy's foult that Ford couldnt keep up in the BB market.

Oh well like I said in the post your replying to if you actually read my past post was....
"It's supposed to be based competively with the mustang."

Uhh your saying the Fox's and your SN95 does? there two different cars lol.....which is why there put into generations....

Yep all 150hp of your car uh huh. Ive seen Camry's out run your model. Stock for stock your beat by a F-body. even the 3.4 V6 has the Sn95 body style beat on power. The new 4.0's only have 10hp on the old Chevy 3.8II.
lol I meen this thread is abouta Grandam beating a Mustang. lol....I dont really belive you.
Ford (Lets say itsa 98 sn95) 3.8: 150hp
Chevy 3.4: 160hp
3.8: 200hp
