America’s pony car gets fresh sheetmetal, a nicer interi or, and suspension tweaks for ’10. Better materials inside and sharper dynamics make the Mustang—V-6, GT, or GT500—tons (literally) of fun. The Camaro and the Challenger are more sophisticated but aren’t as enjoyable.

Pony-car roar, fun, broad model range, sequential turn indicators are just plain cool, GT500’s supercharged powerMore confident and less floaty, the 2010 Mustang is improved in dynamics and fit and finish. The Track pack is even better, though the ride suffers. The GT500 rides hard but launches hard, too.
