I could write a check for an M3/M4 right now without any trouble, and I'm definitely driving the 2015 Mustang before I even put down a deposit.

Whether an M3 is in a class of its own all comes down to how to classify cars. Yes, the M3/M4 is a very different car than the Mustang GT, but if you're focused primarily on performance, the 'Stang is a car you have to look at.

I work from home, so I don't have a work commute. Day-to-day, we drive the X3, which is a perfect balance of comfort and utility for our household. When I get another sports coupe, my focus will be performance. I enjoyed my 1-series because it has just enough of the BMW refinement. If Ford does a passable job with the build-quality, the performance of the Mustang coupled with the cost savings is going to make the decision very difficult for me. I'd love to keep the $20k.
