I saw my first Bright Yellow Camaro the other day. It was an SS and I was driving my 1LE when I saw it. The guy sped past me like he wanted to race but we went different directions.

I weighed them both, but my Bullitt Mustang is lighter still than the Camaro by almost 475 lbs!! The Camaro needs to lose some weight too!
Awesome stable of rides you have there.

Even though Camaro is outselling the Mustang, I see a hell of a lot more mustangs than Camaros.

I've seen one 2015 Mustang and it was... odd

I'm torn as to whether or not it will grow on me... I liked the pictures of it, but something about seeing it in person seemed off... maybe it's the proportions? I can't really pinpoint something I completely disliked, like I can with the rear ends of the 2014 Mustangs... I'm going to have to see a few more of them before I pass judgement

there are 2014 model Camaros all over central Texas... there are a bunch of them on the lots, too, but I see a 2014 on the street almost daily... so they're definitely selling around here.

It was less than 200 cars nation wide difference from January 2013 and January 2014, which is like 4 cars per state....nothing you could notice really.
Plus you have 4 years of sales of the 2010-2013 versions compared to about 4 months of 2014 model sales... It's going to take a while till you see a bunch on the roads.

2006
166,530[78]
2007
134,626
2008
91,251[79]
2009
66,623[80]
2010

2011
70,438[82]
2012
82,995[83]
2013

I wonder what happened in 2009?

looks like GM needs the 6th Gen to re-energize the buyer's market...

The GT versions need the Boss rear valance like this picture to make the 2014 look complete. In stock form the bottom looks kinda weak imo. Notice the bottom black splitter....

You just have so many choices today, from little pocket rocket hatchbacks, Pony Cars, Muscle cars, Sports Cars and even Family Sedans, if you can't find something to get your heart racing then start digging a hole because you are almost dead.
