I'm not an American muscle car guy anyway, but any newish Camaro or Mustang I've sat in has had such insanely pathetic visibility that I could never buy one. I'm fairly tall (6-1 or 6-2), but still felt like I was sitting a ditch. Incredibly poor driving ergonomics.

I found the mustangs outward visibility good, so much so I trusted myself to wiggle the damn thing out of the parking spot in the dealer lot infront of ask the salespeople while the other guy needed two spotters. Ok humbragging a lil but I find it good for a modern car, I mean sure it's not a 1990 civic in terms of visibility but still good. Camaro... yeah.

Bad visibility out of the mustang?? I have a 16 and there are zero visibility issues. Never heard that from anyone. Camaro on the other hand visibility does seem to be an issue.

Sorry. I should say it was the last generation 5.0. Maybe a 2013 model. I looked out the front to see a massive hood impeding my road view... couldn't stand it. I like to see the road right in front of the car, especially when attacking corners. I assume the new Mustangs are much better.

Thats also a thing with most cars that have long hoods, just gotta get used to it. I actually really like the new Camaro, I would have to say if I was in the market between a Camaro SS and Mustang GT, its a hard pick but I would go Camaro. If I could up the budget by $10K (Canadian) I would go GT350 all day.
