I've heard of some guys having issues but most don't and I think most guys enjoy it.

As far as the Mustang or the Camaro. I didn't really have any visibility problems in my Camaro when I had it you just have to adjust the review and the side mirrors properly. That's always been the way though I had to do that in my 2002 z28 as well

As far as a base GT goes the base stereo really looks terrible in my opinion besides that the car is nice.

I would look for a used premium over a new base

Test drive them both they're both awesome cars get whatever one you like

Don't forget to test drive a challenger while you're at it these are after all the last days of muscle cars might as well take your time and enjoy your purchase
It's not bad if you are comparing it to a family car manual trans, but that's the gripe I have with the Mustang 6-speed: it feels closer to the manual trans in my winter family cars (Mazda3 or Accord) than in the Camaro SS or my Series 2 RX-8.

Sports car manual trans should feel on the firmer side, and there should be a mechanical feel to get into each gear to give you the satisfaction of shifting. Mustang's Getrag just isn't nearly as satisfying to use for a sports car. Mustang's stock shift throw is also a little long, though I don't think it's the fairest comparison to my SS 1LE (which has a shorter shifter than standard SS IIRC).
