Dear Troll, I'm not in there because that is a VALID comparison. Why don't you go on the Cayman forums and try to spew some Cayman vs Mustang garbage?

Another knucklehead.. What invalidates this comparison..? Or is it that you don't know what a s550 is, like everyone else who has come to troll a Mustang thread, but soon finds out they are a tad uneasy, because they do compare.. and match up..? Most likely in Ford's favor..? |

Or maybe the badge just matters that much to people here that they couldn't mess with a pleb Mustang. I'll try not to stoke the fire too much.

You then say you need to wait to see the mustang, but you bought your 135is without waiting to drive the 235i. The M2 is still a year away so this conversation is certainly premature. As far as the STIGMA of driving a BMW, I could care less. I bought my car because it puts a smile on my face to drive it. I was never blinded by the badge and usually cross shop competitors like audi and MB. Finally, just by substituting the word easier for cheaper does not make it true. The only thing that makes the BMW difficult to mod is the price. Its not like you have to fly to germany to get parts. I can have the LSD and a tune shipped to my house right now, doesn't get much easier than that. Personally I would rather have a stock 235 then a tuned mustang w/ LSD. Thats just my personal opinion because I want more than performance. I do agree with you about the M2 being an important car for BMW.

I dont think these pictures are helping your case at all. That is pretty much exactly what I was expecting out of the interior. And really what is up with that handbrake, not a deal breaker, but why.

I can see where this thread is going. 2addicts, the ultimate interior enthusiast community. A place where we can't appreciate other cars, but instead talk them down because of their handbrakes. Objective performance driving talk? Nah, let's make threads about how many badges are on this model year instead.

Ironically, You are the first in this thread, to mention a 228... can't follow your logic, as I never mentioned it. And for further irony, let me quote: Quote:
I am sorry, You are just being //Marketed too... and probably don't remember the old days of BMW... ! |

There is no objective driving performance to talk about because none of us have driven the car. Which is why so many have said this thread is garbage. All we can do is comment on looks and specs. Looks are subjective so posting pics saying its a great car is illogical. No one has been able to verify the specs so its too early to really compare the two cars. That is what most people have said. I'm sure there will be great debate once the car comes out.

As more reviews come out, the more we can discuss in detail. But the SPECS are out.. and nobody is dropping 235i specs, or pics... why? |

-Sorry I assumed when you said that the mustang has overall better performance you had to be including the 228 because I see almost identical specs between the 235 and EB. (other than size and quality) Again you need to be more clear and stop making blanket statements if you want anyone to hear you out. -Maybe you should read your posts because you listed it was easier to get LSD, tune, parts, repair, etc. Aside from the LSD those items are just as easy to get on either car, but the BMW will always be more expensive Clearly you are not interested in addressing any of the substance of my argument, so I'm gonna get back to work.

I am still waiting for you to offer a debate... or a rebuttal to any spec, only opinions thus far from you. The irony continues...! I haven't made any blanket statements, did you read the Opening Post..? MCF.. Quote:
