  1. I have noticed, that as usual, very few people who comment these videos actually know what they’re talking about.

    ford guys allways got some lame ass stuff to say

  3. @khdude2000 Apperantly you haven’t watched any of he 2012 tests yet. The Camaro is getting killed in the 1/4. Mainly because Ford has been rating their hp at the wheel here lately.

  4. @marksranger camaro will win

  5. @yurifiero Not all females want a mustang. I don’t know any females who even like mustangs, my wife like’s Trans Am, and my mother has always liked Z-28/SS camaro she has owned two Z-28′s.

    My sister owns a 2004 GTO… Women know the different between a V8, and a V6. I have seen more guys riding around in V6 mustangs, camaro etc. than females.

  6. @SuRihtanil and ur point is?

  7. @yurifiero my mom owned a camaro

  8. a catfish that eats horses

  9. I can’t wait for the 2012 comparison Mustang – Camaro

    Well the Trans AM and Camaro SS are amazing machines but…being that i am a mustang guy all the way Id pick the cobra over the others lol

  11. I’m surprised no one brought this up yet, but isn’t the the cobra slow in the video because of that really bad recall ford had on them? Apparently those 99′ Cobra’s actually only pushed out around 260-280hp because of the defective intake manifolds and computer chips in them. That’s why they never made an production 00′ Cobra other then the R because they had to spend the whole year trying to fix all the 99′s.

    How did they only manage 6.0 seconds 0-60 in the Cobra……a 2004 Mustang GT was running was running 5.5 seconds 0-60 with 55 less horsepower…..

  14. @oneshotkill324 I know the cobra handles better, especially with its IRS. All I was trying to say is you cant judge a cars handling by how many g’s it pulls on the skidpad. Gs just mean total all out grip, not handling characteristics/vehicle dynamics. The Viper/Ferrari example I mentioned above is the perfect example. Like I said, I know the cobra handles better than the fbody, but thats due to the cars handling dynamics, and not because it pulls a higher number of g’s on the skidpad.

    @tarquinigg Go check out some slalom times and then come back to me. I’d be willing to put money down on the fact that my Cobra handles better than your FireTurd.

  16. @oneshotkill324 ur obviously retarded too. Pulling more g’s around a skidpad doesnt mean it handles better, it just means it has more all out grip, and more specifically more all out total grip in that specific state of cornering. There was a test where the viper srt 10 pulled quite a bit more g’s on the skidpad than a Ferrari F430. Did it handle as well as the Ferrari though? NOT EVEN CLOSE. It also lapped the track slower than the Ferrari. Skidpad g’s and handling are 2 different things.

  17. i’ll take the cobra anyday, i don’t give a fuck if its slower thats what mods are for. i would rather have a camaro over the trans am, trans am IMO is ugly.

  18. @oneshotkill324 Save the catfish comparison for the ‘Field & Stream’ comparison! LOL

  19. oneshotkill324 on July 31st, 2010 at 1:37 am

    The reviewers of this video are obviously retarded. Yes the Camaro has more power, but it only pulls a 0.86g on the skidpad. The Mustang pulled 0.90g. So does the Camaro handle better no. Does it go better yes. Does it look like catfish, yes it does.

  20. @yurifiero i can’t tell you how many ‘older’ ladies i have ran into that have called their mustang (v6 or 8) their new little sports car. No it ain’t. Just a comment.

  21. @nightfire1800 correction… the 4.6 powered mustang didn’t generate sales. It was more like moms that wanted a cheap sporty red coupe went and bought the v-6 Mustang. The actually people looking for performance bought the f body

  22. @nightfire1800 you can’t blame chevy for ford choosing a smaller displacment engine, likewise you can’t blame ford for chevy installing a larger mill.. They both used what they had in there own respective arsenal. Period. These are pony cars, and they are meant to be compared. You will not sway a ford guy into the chevy camp, and likewise w/ the camaro guys. These arguments are silly.

  23. nightfire1800 on July 31st, 2010 at 3:04 am

    @cordertl the only reason why thats true is because idiots compare a 4.6 to a larger chevy motor. And the camaro costs like 30,000 plus and the mustang was like 24,000 or less in these years. The mustang was priced to sell as a v8 car so everyone could afford a v8 during these years. Mass sale, thats why mustangs sell better. More power per dollar spent, and they get better gas mileage along with a boatload of modifications you can do.

  24. @laveth shut your runescape loving ass up

  25. @zamudio96 captain dipshit no such thing as 04 camaro learn your facts. and a cobra? thats outta the league put a cobra against a zo6
