is there a V8 non premium that starts under $30,095 or is this the cheapest V8? it doesn't look too redesigned for 2010...i thought it was supposed to be significantly updated?
the Camaro won't have an "electronic mirror" with compass or seperate display for a compass, mpg calculations, etc right?

I kind of expected Ford to increase the price on the 2010 Mustang GT. Sure you can still get the base GT for less but Ford has to charge for the premium options. This puts the Camaro SS at a better price position because it's no longer a good bit more expensive then a comparable Mustang GT.
#4
This falls into the "Non-News" catagory.
It's a price increase of about $100.
Current Premium Mustang GTs cost just over $29,000
There is at least a $2,000 difference between the Mustang GT and the Mustang GT Premium. Base Mustang GTs still cost $27,200
Current Premium GT includes leather, shaker 500 w/ 6 disc changer, and a whole host of other items as standard. It's a pretty loaded, not many options left vehicle.
The new one includes: "Ambient Lighting, Bright Aluminum Accent Dash Applicques, Pedal Covers, Scuff Plate & Shift ****, Cupholders, Door Trim Panel Inserts, Front & Rear Footwells, Gloss Pain Center Stack & Console, Leather Stearing Wheel w/ Aluminum spokes, 6 months Sirius Satellite Radio, Satin Door Speaker Surrounds, SYNC, 18″ Spoke Aluminum Wheels, 6-Guage Cluster w/ MyColor, 6-way Power Adjustable Driver’s Seat w/ 2-way Adjustable Head Restraint & Power Lumbar, Shaker 500 Audio System. "
What's more intresting is "a GT Track Package for an extra $1,445 with dual piston calipers, performance brake pads, a 3.73 axle ratio and a recalibrated stability control."
Base Mustang will still be about $2,000 less than Camaro SS.

Not huge, but more than $100.
I'd assume there will be at least some increase over the current $27,210 for the Deluxe, too.
Camaro is still going to be more expensive, but it will be a little narrower gap...
#6
I'd be inclined to add that "track" package to any GT Mustang being compared to an SS Camaro...it makes sense (to me), since the FE3 setup on the Camaro has the brakes, etc and was tuned on the 'Ring. When you do add it; it lowers the price gap a good chunk...the Camaro's looking better every day...

Looks like it's still with us from the brochure:

Who on earth said that???
I see the 3:55 rear axle on the manual has been replaced with 3.73s.
The 2010 GT will apparently be a little quicker than the current one.

Don't need to.
1. They have owned the market for 8 years.
2. The public isn't impressed by excess horsepower numbers (or else the Mustang wouldn't have owned the market for the past 8 years).
3. Most importantly, that 315 horsepower V8 powered Mustang GT is in a car that's roughly 300 pounds lighter than the new v6 Camaro and a solid 400 pounds lighter than the Camaro SS.
The 300hp Mustang was right next to a 400 hp GTO till almost the end of a quarter mile. The Camaro SS is heavier than a GTO and has only a 22 horse advantage and that's only with the manual.
I'd save your smileys till we actually see the numbers this car pulls with that new axle, that Bullitt level high revving engine, and the new tuning that computer has.
Besides, we aren't talking "All Out" vehicles. We're talking bang for the buck. The 700 horsepower Shelby Mustang GT500 Super Snake is what I would call "All Out".

Have official numbers been released yet? I knew it was only speculation before, saying that they were gonna receive a big bump in HP #'s AND be 500lbs lighter. I don't think it's appropriate for us to jump the gun until we have real-world numbers.

What the hell is this?
Security Package (43S) - $995
Active Anti-Theft System, Wheel Locking Kit
It better be a guy named Guido who stands next to your car with a baseball bat when you are not there for that kind of cash.
