The mustang also did not get killed around the track by the ZL1. The mustang beat it on almost every track but one. We are talking about a car with a solid rear axle doing work against a car that has similar suspension to a Ferrari on IRS. have you read all the gt500 vs zl1 comparisons? Every mag and review says zl1 superior on the track

The BMW interior is "nicer" in some models. The M3 is nice, but I will take the GT500 with the suede steering wheel and seats over the 335 or lower model. I agree with the suede but the rest of the interior sucks..

I own a 3 series, and I have about 3 others in the family. I also have a 13 GT500 that is being built as the 7/9/12 and you can probably see I am maybe defending it a little bit, but coming from 2004 you can probably see your issue.

Things have changed from 2004 to 2013.
See bolded above for my thoughts
