2- 2002 camaro ss converts new on mso

[Belair62]

The new T-Birds are kind of weird.They took bits of styling from several different years and at first you couldn't get one.Now I see them on a lot of dealer lots.

The new T-birds are too slow. I saw a new red Mach 1 today and I like it. The Mustang still looks Mustangish.

the camaro went a restyle every ten years, and added body pieces every five. GM needs to do what the imports do, have a design for 5 to 6 years then redo it. It keeps the attraction and value up.

My two cents anyway.

Chris396,
I personally think you are looking thru the eyes of the car enthusiast on the street, which I think is correct.----MUSTANG stood the automotive world on it's ear with it's fresh styling----the intial stlying kind of lost it's way in the 80'IMO ,but Ford has slowly gotten back to the "C" frame shape of the 60's-----IDENTITY---if you took all the emblems off the new mustang and new camaro and then compared them to old 60's photo's ,you wouldn't need emblems for the MUSTANG to recognize it---just like the Corvette---no matter how they modernized styling the Corvette and Mustang kept their identity in-tact------IMO I always thought the Camaro tried to be a new Mustang with their new design and just kind of pushed the styling that got them there, completely away--I know a lot of you fellas are saying I'm full of crap, but that's OK because we're just kicking some ideas around---when you get a chance look thru some old photos of Mustangs--Camaros--Corvettes and it makes you think Maybe Ford does have it's finger on the pulse of the car enthusiast---- especially with their new performance[Total Package handling/styling/performance--You Gets Your Moneys Worth].--Yes I am a CHEVY-MAN.

I don't think you're full of crap (not int his instance anyway[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif[/img]) as I personally feel the latest Mustangs flat out have it in the looks department. The small scoop (even a shaker option!), the revised front/rear...and going back to their roots with the Bullet, the Mach 1, etc. Being a die-hard bowtie guy I don't know if I could bring myself to park a GT in my garage, because I'd be going backwards performance-wise, but I could be swayed for an '03+ Cobra! Those things are bad@ss, and MEGA-HP is a simple pulley change away.

Interesting theory, Charley, that unfortunately in our day/time makes sense.

I just hope that GM doesn't "Impala-ize" the Camaro and go V6/FWD...[img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

I gotta disagree with the looks of the current Mustang. It looks like some off-road 4x4 vehicle with those big plastic fender flares. And they're too squared off. I pass 5-10 of these Mustangs every day and they get uglier each time I pass one. The Cobra definitely has some awesome performance, but the cars are dog ugly. People will buy anything with a little horsey emblem on it. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif[/img]

I have been quiet, working on some things - like how to get some pics scanned! I'm trying to scan some pics of this Huggar Orange Deuce that was just found, and the H.Hound! Charley's ugly, and his mom dresses him funny - that's all I can come up with!
