Should I trade for an ls1???? Am I crazy?

You can't possibly expect to get an unbiased answer for this from a Mustang forum. We're all here because we chose the Mustang instead of the Camaro.


But, for what it's worth, car vs. car the Camaro is faster, but it's also an automatic which in my book equals boring. I also don't think it'll sound half as good, but that of course is debatable.

Fbody... ?

the LS-juan is touched by the hand of God... therefore, if you don't go through with this trade you're basically giving God the finger... you don't want to give God the finger do you?

Long as the mullet car is clean I would

I'm biased...i'm a Ford guy, but i can respect the LS1 for being a badass engine. The generation Camaro it came out in....well, like anything else if you put the right wheels on it and lower it and if it was a stick, then i'd drive it. I wouldn't trade a Mustang for it just because the Mustang is slower though...i'd stick with the car i loved the most and built it up if i wanted it faster.

If it was a six speed, maybe.. but an auto? Not even.

truly depends what you are after. I have owned both so I will give you my .02.
The camaro will not have that shoe box on wheels feel that makes the fox feel like a monster with only 200hp. The fox has a much larger back seat if that matters to you. I was able to put a childs car seat in the mustang and still have adults occupy both front seats. The camaro also has a trans hump that cuts passenger floor board space in half(once again if that matters to you. The camaro's stock rear end is weak. A modded car will have no problem making soup of the rear diff. Most gm guys upgrade to a ford 9". The extrememly long hood makes it difficult to judge exactly where that curb or stray dog is.

Now for the upsides to the camaro. The ability to turn the rear tires to glue even with an auto is addicting. I personally found evey facet of the vehicle easy to work on and maintain. The interior is more ergonomic. The ride is smooth, steering exrememly responsive, and it handles like its on rails even with stock parts. OBDII cpmpliance is a big plus to me as well.
