Talk me out of it: Mustang GT 5.0

[CrusherCurtis]

The mustang is a great handling car it actually keeps up with the m3. No reason to buy the 135i. Spend your money wisely and buy the superior car. S50 an e30 and boost it before buying a 1 series. The e30 won't depreciate at all probably. And I'm the biggest BMW fanboy in existence.

Musting .1 slower than m3 around track:

EDIT: Sorry I see 1BadE30 beat me to it. (watch that video)

honestly i hate how the new mustangs look, and I'd rather have a car that can handle tight corners than a speed machine. Though I'm sure if you do a lot of highway driving having that mustang sound & speed is nice. It's just not my style. It's really up to preference, but my vote will always go bmw over ford.

Lol, then buy the mustang if you want a better handling car, did you not see how it outhandled the e92 m3 on the track? lolz

[mcgillaguddy]

well, I seem to be wrong about the new mustang's handling, though i would still never buy one. I am very surprised to see it handle so well, I have only driven older mustangs but none of them have handled anywhere near as well as any bmw I have ever driven.

Keep in mind that mustang in the video has an expensive handling package equipped. Still even the regular 5.0 is pretty nifty.

get an e46 m3.

Lol at all of this image aura bullshit, all of you are a bunch of fags. I'll buy the better car and let my image take the back seat.

Agreed. The Mustang is the obvious choice.;)

Do it.

For those who keep calling it a "speed machine" and not a "tight cornering" car.

Here's your proof of being absolutely wrong.

Nothing about that track is tight. All those corners are wide.

That's nothing against the Mustang, though. It's a great car.

I just doubt that it could keep up with a 135i on a real tight track, or twisty road.

E46 m3 + hpf /thread

About time they put a 6 speed in a GT.

5.0 no question. handles very well for an american sports car, and its batshitinsanefast in a straight line.

Handles well for any sports car, regardless of where it came from.

[KirkerBezerker]

Mustangs are everywhere.

Chirping 4th gear on the strip

If u buy the 5.0, at least wreck it and do us a favor.

If I was going to buy a new car, I'd get a real car. 2011 370z nismo.

And well, if I ever buy a new car, I'll be a man ...
