Is The 6th Gen Camaro SS Better Than The S650 Mustang GT ?

[RCFMustang]

Whats up guys, I've owned 5 different Camaro's over the years and I've recently bought my first Mustang GT, so I decided to make a video explaining which platform I believe is better, feel free to let me know if you agree or not and explain why. Also if you have any insight you'd like to add please do.

Camaro is just such a failure if you’re gonna do anything other than leave it stock, I was cross shopping ZL1s…. You have to throw the kitchen sink and your whole damn checkbook at them to be inferior to a whipple 5.0.

As a former Camaro guy I grudgingly have to agree with you. As a stock car they are amazing, but if you want to get decent power out of them it's very expensive, and nine times out of ten you're still going to get gapped by a 5.0 with the same amount of money invested.

And here we have him again with another clickbait.

In all his other topics he said "Next time I will be more clear about my video's".

And here he is again, with zero information in the thread. You want information? Click on his video, watch it and find out what crap he is talking about. Every YouTube video is a new thread.

After 3 or 4 threads with the same clickbait stuff, this confirms that this guy only wants views.
What he also does is, he tries to keep his threads going by having meaningless conversations with others, just to bring up the thread on top.

This TikTok generation is all about the clicks.. sigh..

Lol thank you for policing the forums, you have done your hating services today, now you can go back to focusing on your own life. #Goodbye

Coming from the practical daily driver side of things, I would say the main things the SS has against it compared to the GT are its rearview blind spots and more cumbersome, smaller trunk (I've never sat in the rear seat of the Camaro, but I'd imagine feeling more cramped [but still be able to sit upright since I'm a shorter guy] than the Mustang).

Outside of the C7 Corvette and pre-refresh CT5, I found the steering of the Camaro to be the most engaging out of all the cars I've test driven. But all said and done, for me the Mustang GT is the complete balanced package of engaging performance and practical daily driver.

You're right I actually have a question for you since you've driven all of them, do you know of a way to modify the S650 to have a similar steering feel to the 6th gen Camaro? I feel like if the S650 had similar steering feel and confidence inspired handling like the Camaro SS 1LE it will be one of the best sports cars out there period.

Camaro all the way up until boost. Lighter and more planted on the road.

I agree stock and NA the Camaro wins, but boosted and modded the Mustang wins, I drove a performance pack premium S650 and was shocked with how much better it handled compared to the base Mustang so I'm guessing that you can modify a Mustang to feel just as planted as the Camaro.

Doubt it. The Alpha chassis is what makes the 6th gen badass. Ford likes playing in the middle as far as the big 3 went. Camaro was the track car, Mustang was the all around cruiser, and Challenger/Charger were the actual muscle cars/boats.

Man that's kind of disheartening lol.

You should have options for steering feel on the control panel.
