I drove a 2010 GT500 at the dealership I work at the other day. Although the interior is great. The exterior just doesnt seem right, like the front end is great but the rear is sloppy in my opinion the taillights look backwards and the flat spoiler that hangs a few inches off the back doesnt look mustangish. The car itself sounds great though.

I don't know what or how Ford pulls it off year after year but, the Mustang ALWAYS sounds great!

The old GT500 was like a pussy cat in the noise department apart from the blower whine. The new one's finally sound good stock without being abnoxious and from what I hear they've toned down the blowers whine. One thing I like about my 2010 GT is the engine noise under acceleration which comes from a resonator running from the intake to the cabin. It's got a real nice V8 growl to it when you drop the hammer. Not sure if that's on the GT500 too?

ill take the Maro hands down. im not a big ford fan anyways but i just dont like the feel of the new stangs.

oh and on 2nd note..he says at the end, the stang is better to live with?! WHO THE FUCK is doing everyday driving to work and goes through a 70MPH slalom!!! or does .87G of force in a turn!

The Maro LOOKS better, MORE power. and price tag is probably a good bit less than the GT500.

that is all.

Alex has a spectacular aura about
GT500 is actually $13k less than the 'maro + they were saying how it feels on the street.

I'd still take the Camaro, not feeling these new stangs. 03-04 Cobruh = win, 05+ 500 = win, not liking these 10's yet.

I'd take the Camaro in a second, no questions asked.

Mustangs are way too ubiquitous. They just seem to change the badges, tinker with a few things, come up with a new color, and call it a different variant of the same thing.

BUT for the record, I do really like the new looks of the new GT500's. I saw a brand new GT500KR at a car meet in Tampa a couple weeks back, that thing was a bad mofo!
