What, uh, what are we looking at here, similar side mirrors?

The license plates are in different locations. This makes the vehicles COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

The fanboy wars are coming...

Can we see it on a non spoiler'd Camaro?

Kinja'd!!!

The natural line on a Camaro trunk is downward in the middle (looks like a telephone pole fell on it). Personally I don't see the lines as matching up all that well sans spoiler.

If you are saying it has a greenhouse, mirrors, and a trunk. Yes.

The funny thing is that if you compare the Camaro rear to a pre-2009 Mustang (Camaro launched in 2010) it looks pretty similar. So you are saying that the new Mustang looks like a car that wasn't dissimilar to a...uh...Mustang.

I guess so, because the roofline on the new Mustang reminds of the roofline of the original Mustang fastback far more than the roofline of the 5th gen Camaro.

Kinja'd!!!

I'd put a lime green circle around it, but c'mon guys, it's right there

Kinja'd!!!

See?

Kinja'd!!!

It's right there.

It was hard to find the picture I found! I see them regularly sans spoiler, guess nobody takes a picture of them. haha

You all do realise that they have always looked alike???? That'S just the natural "pony-car" line.... If the new mustang wouldn't have some similar lines to the camaro it wouldn't be a Mustang....

I actually prefer them sans spoiler.

I'm not complaining that they look alike, in fact gives me more reasons to consider a mustang. My problem is how many of the mustang guys say they don't look alike.

Some more comparison....

Anyways, are we saying the 2015 Mustang looks like a Camaro? My response to that is "fucknoitdoesn't"

don't really see the point of this one, nobody ever said the current mustang looks like it.

There. From that angle they're not very similar. We happy now? Of course not.

actually I love that angle and totally agree and glad of it. I hate fastbacks. Most overdone trend of the 60s.

Though they are perfectly time to come back. We've done the couped sedan, the couped wagon, the couped suv, it was only a matter of time before the couped coupe.

TOTES THE SAME, GUYS. TOTES.

(Yeah, apparently a hip shelf + buttress line is now the be-all and end-all of comparison. If we're playing the "ripoff" game, I could cite the I-Can't-Believe-It's-Not-Expedition Tahoe...)

They definitely look alike. That shouldn't even be discussed....

That's how I feel exactly but it started with some guys saying they look alike and mustang guys started blowing it up. I just have an ocd thing about people not accepting the obvious.

Lol, but nobody ever said they didn't want to compare it.

Considering the Mustangs hips originated three years before the Camaro's conception, seems like Chevy stole some styling cues from Ford. The Ford designers are just tying the car back to the early years. The Camaro's inception is directly tied to the Mustang's success. Early Mustang vs. early Camaro:

nobody ever accused anyone of any stealing, just stating looks like. Looks like goes both ways, the new mustang looks like the current camaro or the current camaro looks like the new mustang. Both are valid. There's nothing new under the sun so no reason to worry about who's stealing what.

Ford even stole the Camaro's side profile!!! OMG! Those lazy Ford designers!

You do realize that they're talking about the potential blind spot that the new Mustang may share with the camaro. they're simply implying that ford guys can't use the "blind spot" as an excuse anymore
