: How about a Mopar, anyways did you guys know for the movie "Vanishing Point," (where a guy tries to get a '70 Dodge Challenger to San Fran from Denver in 24hrs and he crashes it in the end), well in the part where the car actually crashed, they used a '69 Camaro, so not to waste the Challenger.

: LOL what a great idea!!

: I actually saw in real life one of the 2 Challengers used in the movie.

Dont forget the Hemi Cuda in Phantasm 2! What a show piece.

: I have to agree with the fact that off the showroom floor, Camaros are a bit faster, but look at the engine differences. The Mustang's 4.6 can stay pretty close to the Camaro's 5.7 V8. We all know what happens when Ford put the 5.7 (351C) in the new Stangs (i.e. Cobra R). As a Mustang owner I would say that up until 1973 the Mustang was a much better car than the Camaro. The Camaro wins in my mind from 73 until the mid 80's when the 5.0's HP was increased. But from 94 until present, it has been the Camaros who have the advantage.

Yea, but look at the price of the mustang with a 351c. If you want to spend that much you could buy a camaroSS with an lt4 and spank every mildly modded car on the road-not to mention some crazy modded car's! And it still would be cheaper than a mudstain with a 351.

But we're not talking about price, we're talking about which car performs the best.

Exactly my point. The lt4 will smoke any production mustang made period. The base line competetors-----camaro on top again. GOT IT!

Warnerve, if you read that guys first post again, he was agreeing that the camaros with the It4 are faster than the production mustangs. Why does everybody have to be so hostile on here?

Yea, he said to look at the mustang with a 351c in it and said it was better. Then I said look at the LT4 in a camaro and it would be better than that. So all im trying to say is that chevy is always up one more notch than ford. Im not being hostile....just trying to get a point across. Off course the LT4 would be faster than a stock production mustang. But wouldnt a mustang with the 351 be faster than a stock production camaro? Put two and two together and you get 5!
