Sucks that the Camaro continued to drop while the others picked up steam a bit...but it is what it is. Camaro is the oldest of the bunch.

But that Mustang June/July plunge back down to pre-S550 numbers ain't too pretty either...almost shocking if you ask me. If it hadn't bounced back up a bit it would be embarrassing.

I don't think we will know enough until 2016 is nearly over with to determine a sales leader (unless one is clearly dominating the other). The Camaro is releasing at what I'd consider the worst season to release a sports car, and thus I don't expect a strong surge in initial sales. On the positive side of that, the sales should continue strong into the spring as there will be many that waited over the winter until spring to buy. Its will be months after that before sales begin to level out to where we can really compare Camaro/Mustang sales. Of course, the lower than could be, winter initial Camaro sales will be pointed out by Ford fanboys everywhere as a fail....as to be expected lol.
