This is true ^ this is going to really hurt the segment, the problem here is Challenger and Mustang were still in the 10K units for the quarter. Camaro was not. Yes the segment as a whole is bad, Camaro did worse.



Difference is for the parts bin argument is no other Ford has the VooDoo or Predator. LT4 is in the Camaro, Corvette and former CTS-V





That is one thing that is so hard for people to understand. The volume for all of these cars comes from the low end models where majority of buyers won't care if its the fastest/best handling/ whatever. Does it look good, does it offer good features and does it do what they need it to do.




Well said.



But it's not just golf clubs, but golf clubs are the easiest to talk about. That can almost relate to anybody that plays sports. Equipment takes up a lot of room. Ever seen a mens hockey bag? You're (not you but GM in a sense) basically saying anybody that wants to play sports still tough shit you can't also enjoy a pony car.

I've said it many times, I used to DD a Mustang since 04. Could get my golf clubs and bat bag in there. Life got in the way and I had to get rid of it. When my lease is up on my Mazda I might try to get back into a coupe because the wife has an Explorer. At the moment, I can't even consider the camaro because it won't allow me to still enjoy my other hobbies but the Mustang and Challenger will. I am not saying I need to be able to run to home depot and load the car up with stuff. I am just saying I think they could have made a slightly larger trunk opening/area with out compromising performance or styling that much.





Yep, currently it has Camaro crossed off my potential list of cars as well.



Can't put the seat down when you have a child seat in the back since it's not a split folding seat. It's a situation like that were trunk space is ideal.



The Mustang Convertible has more trunk space than the Camaro Coupe does...



Ford had a Mustang ad very similar to that, female teacher leaving school gets into her Mustang GT
