At first I did not like the interior and now it has grown on me. Love how the head unit can lower and provide storage behind. Even the rear is growing on me. With wider tires it will look really nice. Good job!

I use to be able to drive any car off the lot and use it for various school functions and will always remember the excitement caused by driving a 1965 Corvette Coupe ....

Back then a basic price of approximately $4,000.

The Corvette was becoming a serious sports car.

you mean for the Conan thing?
He seems likable--has a passion for cars, of all sorts, and doesn't come off as a snob show off. Too bad he doesn't have kids (correct?).

Here it is, close up, and more indepth. One thing, I think the vents should be body colored. It would give it a more polished look. And I also think the lower rear fascia and diffuser should be body colered as well.

honestly the body looks like a bad mesh of different designs..the overall styling doesn't seem consistent. The trunk looks awful, too many air vents also.

do you like it...more than her?
Funny, there is a 2012 manual with Comp package near me, for 74k, Interlagos blue, with carbon fiber roof.
But, there is a Ford dealership with 3 Mustang 302s for 45k...more hp, similar performance...
And a collectors item. Of course w/o BMW luxury/quality.
I'd say the Domestics are starting to make a good case for themselves.

I always like the M3's but the cost of ownership is downright borderline retarded.  I haven't driven the late model Stangs, do they still drive like bathtubs on wheels?  That's the one thing I always hated about domestic cars is the handling just can't compare to the Japanese or Germans.  The only time the Japanese fucked that up, at least in my own experience is with the Supra's.  Super fast car in a straight line, especially once that 2nd turbo kicked in, but like driving with 100kilos of led in the trunk around a track.

true...but, BMW still  has that 4 yr free maintenance thing, correct? And of course BMW and their M Division are notorious when it comes to engines. I think the Lexus IS-F (current one) will hold up better in terms of reliability and depreciation.
I've driven the GT, and it handles...you can still tell its a live rear axle when going over bumps and a corner. It just aint M3 handling.
As for the 302, well...they wanted it to best the M3 at Laguna Seca, and according to them it did (Laguna Seca edition)

Not bad on the M3 probably a four cylinder not sure, the mustang 302 probably a faster top end speed.

V8 for M3 my bad, the 302 has always been a strong engine for years especially the Boss series.

The one where they photoshopped the picture to make it look like it lifts the front wheels?
