But it doesn’t outperform the M3 in every single way. The M3 is comfortable to drive. It doesn’t have the “race-like” suspension as in the 302, or stupid cross braces that likely don’t do shit. It has a useful back seat in both a sedan and coupe configuration.
Too many idiots think that the price of a car is directly related to it’s performance. It’s not about all of the numbers, it’s about the car in it’s entirety. The M3 has a ton more features than the Mustang, and (if the LS edition has as stiff of a suspension as they say) it is a much better daily driver to the person who can afford it.
