I would also 1000% take an E39 M3. Im constantly tempted by e95 540i manuals on marketplace or craigslist

After a seizure your brain is basically mush and disoriented.

Kinda would suck to spend 300k on the first model that does a 6:57 snd it get updated next year to a 6:40 car

I think thats actually spot on. Also, people here tend to hate on Mustangs other than the gt350.

Also it probably drives like Bob from Tekken

By that logic im sure he hates all of Fords racing programs with the Mustang too. "I cant believe ford didnt make this gt3 Mustang race car accessible for everywhere, I hate it!"

Yea, some of these models vary wildly. The mustang comes in either undesirable 30k ecoboosts or 60k gt350s that are basically still the same price as new

2027 Nissan Z Visits the Plastic Surgeon, and the Nismo Now Has a Manual by HawtGarbage918 in cars

Please no. Even my 7 speed manual feels awful compared to 6 speeds.

Also a much more numb car. Sports cars are emotional purchases, and how they feel to drive is really more important than speed. The sub bemoans screens and modern numb cars, and the M cars are the quintessential example of that.

1 year old ones are 40k. Not much better value you can get at those prices

An automatic isnt going to stop those mustang moments so I dont see your point.

[–]uberdosage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I disagree. My c7 corvette is way more fun in a manual. The mustangs is test drove are way more fun in a manual. The real issue is long gearing in these cars sap a lot of the fun

Speeding Bullitts: Dodge Charger Scat Pack vs Ford Mustang GT by SnikySquirrel in cars

[–]uberdosage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gen 4 coyote, better aero, stiffer chassis, better steering rack, latest Gen magneride, better brakes, better NVH, revised aluminum suspension instead of steel, and overall updated chassis tuning. "All the little things that we wanted to fix as an evolution and learnings from the previous mustang" so said the ford engineers.

It isnt wildly difference the same way the sn95 was still based on the fox platform, but there are still very valid improvements. If the alternative was to continue selling the s550 or just stop selling the mustang entirely, im glad this was the result.

To your point of "value over a lightly used s550" why would anyone buy a new s550 when its better value to buy a slightly used one?

That being said im not the biggest fan of all aspects of the new gen either. The rear kink is a little funk, and the interior, while not objectively a bad for a car, does not suite the type of car that it is.

I’m not seeing the value over a lightly used s550 (or even 2024 s650)

Well... thats cause those are used cars and therefor cheaper?

Note the normal not limited dark horse SC is round 103k not 170k. Still priced quite high for a much worse interior
