Bung on a blower and you'd probably get a better power/weight ratio than I have
It's cool that you've found a modern car which you really like in the mustang, there is just something about the sound of a v8. When (if) they start to depreciate I'll no doubt be drawn to then as a potential second hand buy in a few years.
German cars as a rule are awesome, I can't deny that. They are just too clinical for me and I can't be dealing with the "young professional" cliche of owning one. I'd rather rock up to work in my daily 45. I appreciate I'm not normal however and secretly I like fixing it when it breaks .
