Curb weight on the `10 appears to be roughly 3,533 lbs., compared to 3,450 for a 5-spd `05-`09.

It looks a bit better but not my taste. It would be a wise idea for Ford to loose the 4.0L. That engine does not have a good reputation, it does not get good gas mileage, it is not going to be competitive with the upcoming models if the Challenger gets a Phoenix engine. Ford needs to switch in either the 3.5L or 3.7L Cyclone V6 engine. Those are far more powerful, more fuel efficient, and far more impressive. Ford should consider keeping the 4.6L in the GT and featuring the 5.0L in a new model (perhaps a Mach1 or Boss model).

 

I just saw the 2010 Mustang the other day......
Looks like ASS!....
well, the good news is we have the very last true muscle car that will ever built in the Chally cuz the Camaro also looks like a futuristic chick car like the new mustang.
Viva Challenger!

 

Most would agree that the Challenger is the best of the three when it comes to a true retro look.....

 

This is coming from a mustang owner and yes I agree. At least on the exterior. I think the mustang does have the best retro interior anyway, or at least better than the Challenger.

 

I dunno...I think they all look pretty sweet. The Camaro however, is more modern/contemporary than the others. I have to hand it to GM though...while going down the toilet they had the stones to design something a little different than the competition, while still fitting nicely into the segment. Furthermore, I wouldn't be surprised if it absolutely blew the doors off the Mustang AND the Challenger... I just don't see it arriving so late to the party only to be the slowest. With a Corvette motor (LS3) it obviously means business.

 

When the 70 Challenger came out, it was the last to enter the fight, and it came with the biggest gun...the 426 Hemi. I wouldn't expect Chevy, not to do the same thing after getting the opportunity to look over what Chrysler and Ford had to offer...We will see what they can do in light of their present financial problems...the bean counters (and the Government) may have a thing or two to say about which way the Camaro goes....hope not, but that's today's real world. A really hot Camaro could just help get the Challenger it's 6.4 Hemi....competition helps to improve the breed...Let's hope the second "pony war" is on, should be fun...

 

I agree with Carbon.

What Chevy should of done is brought back the 68-69 Camaro body and put 600 super-horses underneath and Ford should of made the 70's Mach 1 body (come'on Ford update that body already) and put 600 super-horses. [:@] [8D]

 

I for one want to see the best Camaro and Mustang they can get. I hope to tangle with a few before this all goes back to the mediocr. This is the last hoorah, the last curtain call. No matter bail out or bankrupt the fat lady will sing. Sorry, the grossly obese female will yodel The cars that will replace it will be better on fuel and not so much fun to drive at the start. More than likely get better with time. And the weight of that Mustang... what a PIG Where have we heard that before

 

I agree there. If the goverment goes the bailout route they'll most likely ban the production of gas guzzling vehicles. as there is no way public money should be used to further harm our planet. I just realized my next car may be electric! lol
