Styling is very subjective and the Camaro is far from tanking in sales vs the Mustang. The typical Camaro/Chevrolet/GM customer doesnt like the Mustang and vice versa for the typical Mustang/Ford customers. Dynamically they are very different driving cars from size, to weight, to handling, to power delivery and so on. I for one having owned around 20 Mustangs passed on this current iteration for a few reasons.
1. It didn't make me smile when I drove it, I didn't get a great feeling which for me is my buying point
2. Performance wise the Camaro has it beat in nearly all aspects
3. The design wasn't aggressive enough for me visually
I did consider it seriously for the reasons below
1. It looks very good from a rear view at the quarters with a nice wheel/tire combo and lowered. And with GT350 body styling added as well. But thats more dough
2. The Roush Warranty for their 720 blower kit with a base car makes for a great value and a lot of HP for the money. Leave the engine alone and its Hellcat power for around $41k. I had one spec'd with aftermarket big brakes, factory recurs, blower and full FRPP suspension for $52k. Plus it kept the warranty and all I needed were wheels/tires of my choice. For the money its the best bang for your buck out there. Seriously...
Despite that when I drove a Roush powered car I learned a few things, namely I still don't like roots blowers, the 1LE handles better even with the suspension mods and I wasn't blown away. Thats just me though LOL
