I really like the powerful 420hp V8 for the money. Just can't beat that power for the money if anyone want powerful car. But a good car design and engineering is not just dump in a big engine in a big boat car and call it's better car. The big heavy mustang can't compare to the drive quality of a porsche cayman and brz/frs. Two different comparison in quantity vs quality driver car.

Before I bought my S2k, I wanted a Mustang test drive. The only new Mustang my local dealer had with a manual transmission was a V6 and it was very unimpressive in handling, clutch, & shift feel. It did not al all feel sporty or well designed for a manual transmission. The high-sided interior and short windshield made me feel like I was driving in a cave. No thanks.
Mustang and Camaro are the same type of big heavy muscle floating boats for whoever like it for the best power deal !

Actually, the Mustang GT can hang quite well with German machinery....

The Mustang is even "better-balanced" than the M3. Who would have thought?
So I guess Randy Pobst's opinion > your opinion
