Its easy to see that the 6th gen Camaro outperforms its equivalent trims in the 6th gen Mustang. But to say it's a joke seems like you're lashing out at it in anger. You insinuate that because it does not perform as well as Camaro, then it does not perform at all. . . that's a bit of a leap there.
The 6th gen Mustang performs very well when compared to its competitors, direct and indirect. Are you denying this? If so, what is your reasoning?
'11+ Mustang GT's were/are faster than '10+ Camaro's at the strip. Does that mean the 5th gen Camaros were/are a joke of a performer there? I say no.
Feel free to enlighten me if I've made any logical fallacies.

40 seems like a bit of a stretch.
Models/trims built
by Ford, not some 3rd party, include:
S550
Mustang
Mustang Ecoboost
Mustang GT
GT350
S197
Mustang
Mustang GT *(C/S, Bullitt)
GT500
Boss302 (LS)
SN95
Mustang
Mustang GT *(GTS, Bullitt)
Mach 1
Cobra
Cobra R
*these are pkgs on a GT trim car.
Companies like Roush, Saleen, SMS, Shelby American, etc. make cars using Mustang as a platform yes, but their offerings are not built in the same production line as Ford's units.
