This has to do with Muscle/Pony cars you can get in America. The candidates are the Ford Mustang GT, Chevrolet Camaro SS, and Dodge Challenger R/T (the SRT8 is in an upper price tier). There is also the option of 'Something else.' If you pick that one, please give the make and model. Also, if you hate muscle/pony cars, there is the option for that, but please tell us why. If you just don't care for muscle cars or prefer another type, just don't vote. The hate option is only for people who truely and completely hate muscle cars/pony cars.
Now, my opinion; we all know that the Challenger is crap, so it's between the Camaro and the Mustang. I own a Mustang (a v6), and I can tell you that the interior build quality is second to quite a lot of others, but it's not bad. The visibility is really good, and it comes with built in blind spot mirrors. The transmission (shared between V6 and V8) is VERY nice, and the clutch feels good. The steering, even in it's heaviest setting, is a bit numb, but not excessively. A guy came over o my house for a party who had a Camaro (also a V6), and i can tell you that the Camaro has a much nicer interior. Leather and ambient lighting are (apparently) standard. I can also confirm that's really hard to see out of. As for styling, they are quite close. The Camaro some how looks fatter than the Mustang, but the Camaro is more futuristic. As for performance, I (having only driven the V6 Mustang) can only report what I've heard. The Mustang goes 0-60 faster, brakes better, gets the quarter mile down just as fast, and puts more G down in the corners. There is also the fact that the Mustang has a much more extensive aftermarket scene than the Camaro, meaning that you can mod it more easily and cheaply, and have more variety. So I'll go with the Mustang.
