Tested 33k Mustang vs 38K Camaro
We drove a $33,000 Ford Mustang and a $38,000 Chevy Camaro to see which was the better entry level iconic sports car — here's the verdict.
http://www.businessinsider.com/ford-...edium=referral “Normally, when we compare competing vehicles, we don't have a runaway winner. But this time around, the EcoBoost Mustang trounced the Camaro turbo.” |

LMAO if someone paid 38k for a 4 banger Camaro I don't care what car you compare it to, you lost your ass.

Lousy article with zero actual info, by the way I had a 2015 Stang GT, and I like my 2017 Turbo Camaro a lot more, she mentions plasticky interior, my mustang was the cheapest turd interior of any recent car and had rattles out the ass.
This was written by a Stang Lover for sure. |

I'm sure there's going to be someone who says the test isn't valid because they should have used the V6 Camaro or some other reason.

I don't care for the 2.0t. I've never driven a Camaro with it, but lots of other cars and never cared for it. |

What the hell is up with the hood on the Stang? Look tacked on by a 16-year old

Silverado is using a new 2.7L turbo 4, 310HP/348TQ. I think a version of that would be a better fit for the camaro.

I've driven an ATS with 2.0 and it felt strong.. The Camaro is even lighter. Wouldn't buy either of these cars without a v8 though.

No idea what they were smoking, except if their conclusion had already been made before hitting the first key to write this article... $38k? 1LT, 2.0 turbo 4-cyl, auto trans, RS package:

You know right off the bat it's an unbiased review without any favoritism when the cars are refered to as "the 'Stang and the mullet-mobile"
