Re: New 2005 Mustang GT Commercials - a must see
Frank, I agree that Ford has always outsold Chevy when it comes to Mustang vs Camaro but I think the biggest reason for that is because of the 3 year head start Ford had and people will stay loyal to a certain brand. But you can't look at the Camaro and Firebird sales in the last 5 years of its existance because GM didn't even advertise the cars knowing that they were being cancelled. You have to look at the 93-95 Camaro sales to see the increase due to the new(LT1) engine and body style. GM definitely dropped the ball with the Camaro and Firebird but we know that was really due to where it was made. A comment I always heard people say that they didn't like the 4th gen Camaro because it was much harder to get in and out of and almost impossible for people to get into the back seat. I don't really understand what that has to do with a 300hp sports car. It's kind of funny because Ford is 10 years late with the 300hp $26,000 sports car, the Camaro was exactly that 10 years ago. It really comes down to brand loyalty in the end though.
