TCC’s Bottom Line

Wrapped in a cool pony car body, the 2021 Chevy Camaro has sports car moves.

The 2021 Ford Mustang flips its own blue-collar script with natural agility and searing V-8 performance.

TCC Likes

Agile handling
Premium Alpha-platform components
Magnetic dampers balance ride and handling

Greatest-hits body
V-8 sound and fury
Finely tuned handling in top versions

TCC Dislikes

Poor outward vision
Rear seat is tiny
Best for only two adults

We’re still warming to the turbo-4
Cabin could use less glitz
Tiny rear seat
