Is the 2024 Ford Mustang GT a BETTER muscle car than a Chevy Camaro SS?

he Mustang GT is still going strong after so many years and Ford has some big changes for 2024. On the outside you will discover an all new color call YELLOW SPLASH, 19in wheels, upgraded Brembo brakes and Ford Performance active exhaust. On the inside you will be greeted by a leather interior, 13.9in infotainment screen and 12.3in digital gauge cluster. Under the hood is the 5.0L Coyote V8 that pumps out 486HP & is mated to a 10-speed automatic. Is the 2024 Ford Mustang GT a BETTER muscle car than a Chevy Camaro SS?

So glad Ford has the good sense to keep the Mustang. This is a classy car and worth every penny! And yes, it's part of our American auto heritage!

The design looks good, the interior finally was renewed and the performance is quite nice. I think the Mustang GT is a great option to buy.

Yellow isn’t personally my color, though it looks very good on this car in combination with the stripes.

[@Jtay14]

I actually have always liked how the rear end looks on the new gen, I’m still warming up to the front end, the s550s looked more agile and aggressive and less broad, bulky and heavy to me. I also don’t have any issues with interior, makes me feel like you’re in a cockpit of a rocket ship. The doors are still retro enough. Thanks for another amazing review!

[@islanddon865]

In my family, we had 4 Mustangs and 7 Camaros. With that in mind, I take the Camaro RS 6cyl. 335 HP is all I need. The handling on the Camaro is outstanding. I feel it's sharper and quicker in transition. Style is where the Mustang teases me, but I'm way past getting fooled by a pretty dress.

[@scatpackbob3707]

Yellow + Mustang = Modern Classic ❤ Drop the over the top stripe, Drop the blue calipers (suggest red if you want them to pop), Opt for the Bronze Package to accent the Yellow Splash, Opt for the GT Performance Package, and the MagneRide dampening. Above all… six speed manual 😈.

[@gregh335]

Chevy never could get the Camaro styling right over its entire time except for the 67-69 models. They kept changing it up, groping for a design that would work. Never understood it as Chevrolet also brings us the Corvette…beautiful, stylish, and iconic. Sitting inside a Camaro is like sitting in a bunker. Their last designs inside and out look like it was designed by cartoonists. Mustangs have always been fast, fun, and affordable and they look best in colors that pop…say in M&M colors of bright red, blue, green, and yellow. The blue calipers quickly are growing on me and Mustangs are nearly the only car that actually look better with stripes. Excellent review. All the best to all!

As a Mopar guy owning 3 Challengers (SRT-8. 1320 Scat Pack, HellCat) I did buy a new 2019 Mustang Gt Performance Pack and hate to admit the Mustang really excited me to drive. It just felt very sporty, the way that 10 spd shifts down the 1/4 mi. with quick snaps, and loud exhaust, man I miss it. Wife traded it in hating the lack of backseat room. Love that new yellow splash color. Makes me want another one!

[@stevemorrison4401]

@@shanec8224 as far as the feel sitting in it and the driving experience hugging the curves yes! I owned a Gt performance pack it was an amazing car! I was able to rip off 11.8 ets in 1/4 miles with it. HellCat fastest for me was 12.1. Just couldn’t get traction even feathering gas outta the hole with those stock tires.

I own a 2024 Camaro 2SS and I’ll say the seats of the 2024 Mustang GT premium seats feels more comfortable and inside feels more spacious. Has more storage space in the middle console and glove compartment. I like the new big screens with the animations of the different drive modes. I still love my Camaro 2SS with the features it has that the Mustang doesn’t, but both are awesome cars!

Just an idea, Joe, but if you could sometimes review restored classics such as a Judge GTO, 40 Ford, 49 Mercury, or early Buick muscle car or even the Grand National, that would be great. (My first car memory was riding in my dad's black 1964 Buick Wildcat, and "steering" it while sitting in his lap. I thought I was in the batmobile lol. My brother had a 65 red Mustang convertible, and I recall riding in that, too). Such great cars! Thank you for your reviews!

[@jpete3027666]

It’s a great car but that giant screen running across the dash just kills it for me. I’d either go with a 2023 or a Camaro. The S550 generation was peak Mustang in my opinion.

[@RaitisRides]

You are not the first to say that

[@Tusuperbis]

I agree on the dash. It looks cheap and you know ford done it because it is cheap. It wont age well either. Unfortunately, the trend of us paying more for less continues with all the manufacturers. The first manufacturer to come down to reality and build something people can afford, will be the manufacturer that secures some loyalty in this market.

[@jpete3027666]

@@Tusuperbis exactly. Mustang buyers don’t want a giant screen like this. The S550 dash and infortainment setup looks timeless to me and will still look great in 20 years because it blended the old with the new, without going over the top on the tech side like the S650 does. And you’re right, knowing Ford this screen will have issues and what happens in 8 years when it dies and you can’t turn on the AC anymore? I don’t want to know how much a replacement will cost.
