My son bought a brand new Mustang six speed manual a few years ago. It was pretty awesome. But then he traded it in on a BMW M4. He doesn’t even take the Mustangs seriously any more. The BMW is at a completely different level. I’ve been in both. Truth be told, I don’t even LIKE BMW’s. I think they are overpriced, but holy cow is this thing awesome compared to the old Mustang.
Oh, and he REALLY thinks my FR-S is a toy. :)

My wife drives a BMW Z4...................................
That just looks like the old one to me.
They don’t change a lot, year to year, look-wise................
The state troopers in Louisville use them.
Don’t like it, no louvers on the rear window.
The BMW M4 is a gorgeous car. And I agree with him...any Mustang...meh.
“So it appears two models will be available until they phase out the evil petro models”
The Mach-E has four models.
The Mustang:
Base
GT
GT-500
Mach-1
Bullitt
GT-350
” The BMW is at a completely different level.”
At twice the price it should be!
OTOH, my Mustang eats M4’s for dessert!
“That just looks like the old one to me.”
Mustang line is retro.
No thanks. Bought a brand new 2006 Stang and it lived up to the name First On Repair Day. Not buying another.
Weary of the “angry face” look.
in the automotive repair business bmw means bring money withya...
” But then he traded it in on a BMW M4”
Wait till the maintenance and service bills start rolling in!

Only normal service except 2000 GT replaced fuel pump at 110k.
I rented a 50 anniversary red convertible in Birmingham AL and drove to Mississippi. Very nice car. The light under the side mirrors projected a running horse on the pavement next to the doors. very cool.
Meh.
The Hoonicorn on the other hand — that’s an awesome Mustang! Made of unobtainium, requires a full time crew to keep it running, and you have got to have a neck the size of a large oak tree’s trunk to handle the Gs, but what an incredible machine it is.
