My opinion.
Quality:
I saw the mustang in person. I wasn't thrilled with the materials seemed very close to my 13. The bmw I think has the advantage.
Performance:
On paper I think the 15 gt will be faster all around. The eb modded most likely will also be faster than a stock 235.
Driver feel:
I can't provide an opinion on the mustang although for me the car is too big for my liking. I can't see going from a 1 or a 2 series to a mustang as an upgrade in driver feel.
Modding:
Fords are cheap to mod BMWs can be but I wouldn't go that route. This is a null since technically you can mod to extreme. Unless fbo is considered I'm going with the mustang.
Bang for the buck:
Mustang all day
Styling:
Bmw. Not crazy about the front end of the mustang.
Economical:
Bmw Eco pro (although I never use it) so toss up with eb.
Room:
Comfort I'll say bmw
Visibility:
Bmw
Warranty and maintenance:
Bmw
Holds value:
Bmw
Exclusivity:
Bmw unless you spend big bucks on a limited edition model. I rarely see 135is or m235i in my area.
Lastly lady appeal:
Bmw
Hope this lines up better with what you are trying to do.

Not hard to understand the concept of comparing two products.. Additionally, as the actual reviews roll out, we can discuss more things in detail, but the specs alone give a basis for argument & comparison.
