wouldn't even be a question - with me I reckon you'd get as far as:

"this or an Au...."

"Mustang please!"

Or The Original?



I'd go original
I don’t like either enough to choose. They’ve just never tickled my fancy at all. Ok, maybe one, that hot mental GT3’esque one launched recently.

I've just watched a programme on Sky Turbo - "Head to Head" contrasting an M4 & a Camaro. Should have been a European wiping the floor with a lardy yank tank, but the roles have changed. The BMW has gone luxury cruiser losing its sporty credentials whereas the Camaro has upped its game and retained a nasp engine. This trend has been going on for a few years now. I used to have the usual European prejudices but I'm now looking at an S550 for big V8 fun. (keep the Lotus as well!)

I alternate between my M4 and the Mustang and it's the Mustang that's more fun to drive for me. A big part of it is the gearbox - the M4 is an auto and a very good one but the Mustang 6spd is just more enjoyable. I almost treat the M4 like a luxury car now and use the Mustang for when I want to enjoy the drive.

Nice motor. The wheels look like they belong on a Porsche. I much prefer the original Ro-style ones.

I'll likely get flamed for this, but I dislike convertibles. This would look alot better without the haircut.

S3 all day. Not everyone wants to look like a midlife crisis
It would be highly unusual for both of these cars to be on a potential buyers shortlist, so the question should very rarely arise.

So 60 years ago we got the 911 and the Mustang.
Is there anything launched this year that people will remember in 60 years.
Or that versions of will still be in production in 60 years?
Or 6 years.
