[QUOTE="Ry_Trapp0, post: 9969977, member: 27761"] you know what i didn't hear mentioned in the video? solid axle. silence speaks spades, ford has a solid axle mustang that is damn near equal to not just a BMW 3 series, not just a BMW 3 series M model, but a BMW M3 with the "competition package". consider this for a second; the 3 series is available with a number of engines, including I4s, I6s, a turbo I6, and of course the V8. you could say that the I4/I6 are equivalent to the mustang V6(el cheap-o sales leader), the turbo I6 is equivalent to the mustang GT(premium mass market mover), and the V8 powered M3 is equivalent to the shelby GT500. i'm not saying the models are competitive with each other in quality or performance, but that, in the model ladder, these are the equivalents. this essentially has the mustang GT competing with what is essential BMW's GT500! and with BMW's own "SVT performance pack" too, lol. put the shelby GT500 with SVTPP up against the M3 comp pack and you will have a straight up messy homicide on your hands! and we don't need to mention the boss 302, let alone the boss 302 laguna seca... gigantic props to ford! this obviously doesn't take a thing away from BMW and the M3, they still agreed that it was the more complete package as far as driving goes(understeer and lack of torque aside). this isn't BMW dropping the ball, this is ford stepping up - way up!
