Awesome video aside it goes to show just how special the GT350R is, actually quite surprised you (and the others above) call out Mustang rather GT350R, guess goes to show your own ignorance as to how different the GT350R is in comparison to the base Mustang GT. Have a watch of the video and learn something, you'll still come back with your GTS bias I am sure but you'll be surprised at how good the GT350R is and how it makes the GTS look ridiculously priced.

Wathced the first minute or so.

LOOK at the cars they are comparing and they are ACTUALLY saying the Mustang is the best DRIVERS car?

Even if you discount the M4GTS. Nearly EVERY car there is better than the mustang! laugh

Anyway. Counter video tongue out

Remind me what the Mustangs 350 (economy model) ring time is?

You're righting off one of the most iconic yearly road tests after a minute?

Clueless, no further comments from me.

Did anybody watch the 1st video, the McLaren won rolleyes

And that M4 video needs an award for the most monotone lap commentary I've ever heard. Great driving but christ I had to switch off after less than a minute for fear of forgetting to breathe.

The most iconic AMERICAN yearly road tests. Nationalism is great, but the yanks wear oil tanker sized blinkers.

I can't find one non-US road test that ranks the Mustang as high as a normal M4, let alone the GT3 RS rivalling GTS?

Saw a porsche 918 spyder and an aventador yesterday heading north up the M40 or a46.
Can we please only work on pictures or whats the point, no disrespect but whats the point?

Thats said, I saw a Pixie earlier...
Now if you had said you'd seen a Gremlin earlier it might have been a bit more believable wink
I thought I had but when I got closer it was a Pacer...getmecoat
