I think the GT350 will be the winner in the first battle on price alone. But we will have to see what Chevy does with a track dedicated car for the new design, since the Z/28 will no longer be in production for 2016. Ford got caught a little off guard when the Z/28 came out, so their answer is a bit late to the party. With the other battle SS vs. GT, the Chevy is going to win that one hands down (subjective opinions about the looks aside). The SS will be around the same weight or so, but the LT1 blows away the Coyote, the 8 spd auto is faster, no MRC in the Mustang, etc...

I think people are a little off here with these comparisons to Gen5 Mustangs and Camaros and how that moves forward with the 6th Gens.
There is no doubt Ford had insight into what GM was bringing to the table with their 6th Gen. That being said, this is what I think the direct comparisons in price and performance will be with the new generations:
Camaro T4 to Mustang T4
Camaro V6 to Mustang V6
Camaro SS w/o MRC to Mustang GT PP
Camaro SS w/MRC to Mustang GT350 w/MRC
Camaro ?? to Mustang GT350R
Camaro ?? to Mustang GT500?
Just my thoughts.
