I spy.....

...A '10 grabber blue v6.

Was in the parking lot of the local outlet mall. First time seeing grabber blue in person and its really nice.

GF said she likes the rear end but "the front looks like a Camaro". I wanted to open the door and push her out after that comment.

I've heard that "looks like a cumaro on the front" crap a couple of times now and I just really don't understand how anyone can think that.

I was at dinner, looked out the window and the grabber blue stuck out like a sore thumb. The picture is from when we were getting into the car.

The 2010/11 Mustangs hardly have a straight line anywhere on the car and the car's looks change noticeably depending on your perspective. The picture below is of me and my 2010 Mustang GT and in this particular camera perspective, I've had people tell me it reminds them somewhat of the original Camaro front-end. Not saying it looks like an original Camaro but has hints of it. I try not to be insulted when folks tell me that, but I know where it's coming from.

I've had people say that to me too. It makes me mad. I try to explain to them the clear differences, but most don't care.

I would say that the new Mustang does look a little like the new Camaro when it has a black billet grill without fog lights and the Roush front facia with fog lights.

I agree and my fiancee has said the same thing. I mean come on, there is definitely a similarity there.

Aerodynamic efficiency will lead everyone to the same design in the end... resemblances are inevitable. Hell, you look like me and I've never met you... But you have eyes! So we kinda look alike...
Most important think we we have blue ovals and not a pudgy bowtie!

I doubt either of these cars are that aerodynamically efficient. I know the 2010-2011's are much better than the 2005-2009's but that's not saying much.

It's also not the end of the world that two muscle cars have similar front ends. Look at the past open grilles of the 60's and 70's. Many muscle cars had similar designs.

They're muscle cars. They're going to have some similarities to get that muscle car look. That's why they're muscle cars and not Hondas!

I can't say a Mustang looks like a Camaro but i will say the Challenger and Camaro favor a lot.
