I dont know about that .. the 2010 Mustang is just a facelift and ya will get new powertrains, but thats pretty much it.. the Camaro will still ride on a far more advanced platform. And i dont think the 2010 Mustang will even get a 6-Speed anything. The Mustang with the EcoBoost (which wont even be offered on the Mustang until sometime later) will be putting out about 300 hp... thats about the same as the V6 Camaro, so if GM wanted to one up Ford again.. all GM would have to do is add a turbo to the V6 DI Camaro, and easily push out 350+ hp. I dont think the Mustang will stand a chance against any Camaro until the Mustang gets a total redesign from the ground up.
