    Rest of the car looks great.

      If you're blind, which you could very well be. Have you cleaned the walls of your bubble in a while, they're probably pretty scuzzy.

        I don't even know why I had to ask. You are the one who consciously chose to buy and then mod a cobalt.

          And for the record I don't have a problem with you or anyone on the site. I like to push your buttons because you get fired up like one of those girls on the hills when I talk about your car. Just like when I like to whisper sweet nothings into Jon's ear because it gets Darren fired up.

            Sad to hear that the Mustang outsold the Camaro. I just don't see it. That picture that Autoblog has is the very definition of why I don't understand it - the Camaro looks so much better than the watered down Mustang IMHO.

            Seems like we have a lot of sell outs on the site. I'm still an FBody guy to the core and I'll never root for a Mustang. Does GM have to do something more? Yes, but I still stand behind the Camaro. And yes - the Camaro rear end looks 100% better than the Mustang's diaper full of a poop rear end.

                  Yep right on Milford rd. And it's hard to see everything since at most times there is usually atleast 5-6 cars hidden in the garages. Should have my formula/my brother's formula/ and the Camaro up at baker's for the m&g. Hoping for no T-storms.

                  Right now we have 5 GM Products(1954 Bel Air, 1965 GTO, 98 & 99 Formula's, and the 5th gen)
                  We also have a decent sized Mopar Collection as well ('66 Plymouth Satellite, '66 Dodge Coronet, '68 Barracuda, '74 Chrysler Imperial Lebaron)
                  (Not including the 2 parts cars we have. 1972 Chrysler New Yorker & 1966 Chrysler Newport)

                    Not a sell out. I just don't like the 5th gens. Truthfully I don't much like the 3rd gens either. I'm not a huge Mustang guy though. I like the 03-04 Cobras, 64-70's, and the 2011's.

                    Not likely. My neighbors '11 GT beat up on 5th gens all nigh long when we were in Pontiac a few weekends ago. Same HP and less weight is all it takes. I'm curious what it'll run at the MM track rental on the 19th! The ass of the 5th gen fits it though. It looks heavy duty like a tank and thats pretty much what the car is.

                      I'll admit I like mustangs. I had a 1986 GT. Was a fun little car to learn how to drive in when I was younger.
                      And I wouldn't mind a '11. Truthfully I'll admit I was looking at the '11 as a possibility. But with the 5th gen that I got I just couldn't pass up the price and I didn't have to wait for the '11 Mustang GT to hit dealership show rooms. If my lease was ending a few months later the 2011 would of been a coin flip with the 5th gen. And the Challenger wasn't even in the realm of possibilities due to not being impressed with it's cousin(and base) the 300c.

                        This sales race will likely keep going back and forth with no slam-dunk winner. Hopefully whoever wins the future sales crowns can do so without having to resort to rebates.

                          I can't afford anything new right now anyway but if I could id have a 2011 V6 mustang on order in grabber blue for a daily driver. Practically NONE of GM's products impress me lately. The C6 is the only car that I can honestly say I like everything about it.

                            unfortunately for gm, ford has been doing a great job with with the stuff that its been coming out with. im on the boat with the people who are more impressed with the new mustang than the new camaro. however, both are far too bulky for me, i dont think that theres really anything sleek about either, which is part of the styling that i liked about the camaro i bought

                              The mustang is a nice car, and it will probably outsell the Camaro for awhile due to the fact that Ford has done a better job with it than GM has done with the Camaro. I'm still bitter about the death of the F-body. All that time that the F-body was gone Ford had a huge advantage in gaining a fan base therefore it will sell more units over the long run. That being said, if we were purchasing a new hotrod it would be the Camaro because deep down inside I'm a GM kinda guy

                                thats the thing... camaro doesnt really fit anywhere for me. For a daily sports car i like the mustang, but if i wanted to buy a new performance car id be going straight to the corvette. yea, its missing 2 seats but its lower, sleeker, and lighter with the same engine. Honestly give it a back seat and its what the camaro should be IMO.
