If you see sales dip below 40K units I would be worried for the Camaro cancellation the following year.

As the sales stand now I am not confident there will be a 7th generation.
From every comparison I've seen, the Camaro is actually a touch less expensive if the Mustang is equipped with equal luxuries. Camaro SS for instance comes standard with many things that must be added as an option on the Mustang GT, and if you add those, the Mustang has a slightly higher price. If you go on up to the ZL1, then the Camaro will likely be quite a bit less than the GT500, since it has already been less than the GT350.

I've not shopped any Challengers to know how they stack up.
