The PP1 was designed as Ford's performance version of a base GT, and Chevy responded with the 1LE, the performance version of a base SS. Ford lost that first round badly (as this and numerous other tests have confirmed), and has had to come up with a PP2 version to compete with the 1LE. Chevy go it so right out of the box that no '2LE' is required. The 1LE threatens their coveted, much more expensive GT350. Ford's half-assed first attempt showed their PP1 was just a money-making gimmick. Mustang PP1 owners bought Ford's gimmick.

Base GT, premium GT, base GT PP1, premium GT PP1, base GT pp2, premium GT PP2. Camaro 1SS, Camaro 2SS, Camaro 1SS 1LE, Camaro 2SS 1LE. More choices for the mustang buyer = more buyers due to more price points. Also, some mustang buyers dont want the stiffer riding, more performance oriented PP1/2 mustangs. They just want a supple, cruiser Grand Tourer mustang. However, buyers should compare the value of what you get at equal price points. The Camaro wins this, especially now with the price increase for the 2018 Mustang. Mustangs were generally cheaper than the Camaro due to the numerous configurations offered, but not so much anymore. |

The group involved in GM's marketing needs to be let go.
