Never had a true muscle or sports car before. Subjectively, the Camaro spoke to me like nothing else to begin with, and when I did my research afterwards, the Mustang simply had nothing to attract me apart from its awesome exhaust note—mediocre performance, bulbous body design, hideous catfish front, 1990s interior. Finally, the Mustang is an extremely common sight here, everyone and their little sister has one, and I wanted something more special.

On a related note, I genuinely didn't anticipate the way GM basically abandoned the Camaro after 2018, adding small bits and pieces and those silly, expensive design packages, while the competition are doing what they're best at. Ford is gradually making the Mustang better in every metric that the Camaro beat it at, and Chrysler are adding 'moar powah' every year. I never regretted my choice, would still buy a Camaro despite all this because it's still so good, and I absolutely love my supercharged SS, but GM's attitude is outright embarrassing.

Just my 2 cents', as always in these matters.
