Honestly, I don't know what I was thinking when I bought the '13 GT. Actually, I kinda did, that's why I got the 3-day grace period. However, I didn't think I would end up disliking the way it looks this much! The nose and hood of the '13 are ugly! I was blinded by the 5.0! The 11-12's look MUCH better! I initially looked for a '12, but there was none left that met my requirements.
I'm waiting the arrival of a dealer trade, brand new 2012 Silver Camaro 1 SS, 6 speed, bluetooth. Can't wait!!
It's cool, my fault! Congrats on your purchase Mark. I hope you fall head over heels for your car. I did with mine; a BMW 540i.

Thanks, E! I have that giddy feeling inside. Some say it's only time until I get beck into a Vette. The only Vette I'll get back into is a new c6 z06, and there's no way in hell I can afford that!
I like the new Camaro. Congrats, Mark. However, I would prefer the ZL1, because I believe it will appreciate more in time. The only thing really wrong with the new Camaro's styling IMO is the grille, which looks really ugly. A horizontal grille is the answer. Something like these two grilles.
I agree 100%, Enrique. The front end on the '13 GT's is very similar to the GT500. I initially wasn't impressed, hence, the 3-day grace period. I thought I may get used to it, but the more and more I looked at it, the less and less I liked it. If I could have found a '12 GT, I would have kept it. I was so intrigued by the 5.0, that was the majority of my decision on the '13, but, I also must like looking at my car just as much! The Camaro SS looks 10 times better than the '13 GT's, even of it doesn't get down the 1/4 strip quite as fast. Regardless, the SS still has 426 HP V8!
I think the GT350 is the best looking new Mustang. Of course, that is a Shelby tuning package that costs 34K on top of the 36K cost of the Mustang.
I have a 2013 GT. I love the front end.I get more compliments on my car. I have the Red Candy. Nice color. I do not like the Camaros. They look to squished to me. I was looking at the 2012 GT. Used and saw the 2013. Liked the front end and rear tail lights much better. Also the Government Motors Bail Out gets to me. I sell Porsches. I have for 25 years I love the 911. Just can not afford one.

To each their own. It just didn't do it for me in the end. Sure drove VERY NICE, though.
Not to be a jerk but what does this have to do with anything? What does that have to do with the way a car is built, handles, and drives? So the fact that Ford didn't take money automatically makes the Mustang a better car?

LOL im rarely ever on here anymore, but everytime I log on you have a new car!
It seems like a constant struggle to find the perfect balance between looks and power for you. IMO you'll never beat the C6 Z06 you had in that regard. Maybe you should switch to German cars, get a 911 or an S5 or E92 M3.
