Generally speaking:
* 1996 Camaro V6: These often had less powerful V6 engines compared to later models. They were also heavier cars.
* 2000 Mustang V6: The 2000 Mustang V6 generally offered a more powerful engine and a lighter chassis than the '96 Camaro V6.
Therefore, a stock 2000 Mustang V6 would likely win a race against a stock 1996 Camaro V6. However, modifications, driver skill, and even the condition of the cars could easily change that. A heavily modified Camaro could easily beat a stock Mustang.
To give a definitive answer, we'd need to know:
* Specific engine sizes and models: Both Camaro and Mustang V6 engines varied in displacement and horsepower over the years.
* Modifications: Any performance upgrades (exhaust, intake, tuning, etc.) would dramatically impact performance.
* Condition: A well-maintained car will always outperform a neglected one.
* Driver skill: A skilled driver can extract more performance from any car.
Without this information, the 2000 Mustang V6 is the *more likely* winner, but it's not a guarantee.
