Pharmacist is from Canada though, so technically the Mustang isn't domestic. He's hating on an import!!!

Camaro will be made in Canada?? If so... That's nice lol



Muscle Cars look nice & sound awesome but they suck in handling and will always suck in handling for some reason.

Design is based on past Mustangs - Yes
Aged technology - Only the axle needs updating
Stone age reliability - WTF?
The Mustang is probably what has kept American muscle alive while all others died. It may be an age old tale, but it does what it does very well.

Here is an article comparing the 2

don't get me wrong, I love my Z, and in stock forum it will run circles around the mustang in a canyon cruise. On the other hand, I've owned 4 (modified) mustangs, and for very little money put into a few upgrades they can really shine. They really are a lot of bang for the buck, I beat the crap out of those cars and was really surprised at how well they held up to the abuse. Anyone that would disregard the 2011 Mustang with 400+HP as not being a real competitor, obviously lacks experience. We all know you can make any car go fast and handle good, it just takes money.
Not planning on trading in the Z anytime for a 2011 mustang though.

so? put money into the z and it would still be faster than the mustang.mustangs do not handle well. they're not made to handle well. and why are they bang for the buck? you used to get a pos car wrapped around two pos underpowerd engines. now for 2011 you get a pos car wrapped around somewhat decent engines. basically, you're paying tens of thousands of dollars for an engine

that isnt the correct mustang, the mustang 5.0 hasnt had a final release of specs so they really havent made any bulletproof comparisons..
