Chevrolet's Camaro, Mercury Cougar, Pontiac Firebird, and Plymouth Barracuda were all introduced in 1967, cutting into Mustang's sales figures. Still, Mustang outsold its nearest competitor, Camaro, by a two-to-one margin.

Brad, Barracuda was introduced in 1964. In fact, it was introduced 2 weeks before Mustang.

Camaro sales in 1967:
RS: 64,842
SS: 34,411

I think you need to correct this too.

Mustang: 472,121
Cougar: 150,893
Barracuda: 62,534
Camaro: 99,862
Firebird: 82,558

So, the closest competitor was Cougar, but Mustang outsold it by over 3:1 margin. And Mustang outsold Camaro by almost 4:1 margin.

Just though you wanted to know.
