The ultimate classics back at it again, who will take first place?

The feud between Camaro and Mustang has been going on for more than fifty years, competing to see who is the king of the “pony cars.” It has been a back and forth competition between the two. As soon as one company comes out with a high performance car, the other companies’ job is to top it and they have been doing so. These car manufacturers have advanced cars so drastically that it is unbelievable what they are capable of. The new camaro is a good example of that with its 6.2 liter LT4 supercharged making 640 hp. The new camaro also has magnetic ride suspension helping deliver the power to the ground. It is not only a track oriented car but can be a daily driver as well.

 

The prediction car review magazines like car and driver,  hot rod magazine, and motor trend predict that the Camaro will surpass the Mustang not only in performance, but in driveability because it is a very well rounded car. The Mustang does have about twenty five more horsepower but lacks in the brakes and the suspension area. That is where the Camaro dominates because the Chevy company has best brakes in the business.  All the factors of the stopping power and the ability to turn faster helps the Camaro take first place. The Mustang gt350 is very track oriented so they did not really develop an interior for all the “creature comforts.” Camaro is in the lead right now but it’s only a matter of time before Ford steps their game up and gives Chevy a challenge. The battle between these two performance monster will live on forever.
