I didn’t like the new for 1970 GM F-body cousins style at first but it really grew on me, so I’m going Camaro for this matchup. I do believe my blood brother Geno would agree that we would visit the local Pontiac dealer in 1971!

Camaro all the way !!! Now let’s see that TA in my color… Red with white hood scoop and fender vents 👍🔥 The most wicked thing on four tires that i’ve ever driven.

I find it amazing how GM decided to only do a coupe version of the Camaro / Firebird leaving the convertible market to others.When they first appeared I was in love. Forget Diane Morris in my junior/senior year… I wanted to ‘paw’ at the steering wheel of one of those DDG cars. I got lucky in ‘74… with a TA, not Diane.

The only Camaro I liked was the '69 RS SS.

After '70 I have nothing for the Mustang.

'71 the only pony car I like is the Cuda and only in '71.

Not a pony car fan, so today I have no interest in these selections.

The Mach I version, with its attractive decal package is the only Mustang I like from this year and I like it very much.  The SS and Z-28 Camaro however is gorgeous and beats the Mustang handily.

The split bumper Camaro is my favorite Camaro and the 71-73 Mustangs were my least favorite Mustangs until the Mustang II came along.

Amen brother. Any 70's T/A takes precedence over a Camaro. Although I do love those split bumper models. Out of these two,  its the Camaro. I do like the Stang though.😊

They are superb-looking and performing muscle/pony cars. I am happy to have scale diecast replicas of each of these automobiles.

Interesting Brush as i dislike the styling changes to the ‘71. I think the ‘70 is perfection with its dual headlights and lack of vents/add-ons to the fenders. Just my personal taste though and I didn’t like any other Cuda year after ‘70. Thnx for hearing me out. BTW, i always liked the 67-69 Barracuda coupe. What say you on that beauty ?

I believe there was a sense that convertibles would be outlawed, hence no investment.
