He's thrown away his professional rep for a single car review? Did his driving skills go to shite because MT was paying him for his opinion? Sometimes you just have to let go and accept the new paradigm! The 'stang isn't a match in all areas but it is in the performance area. To be honest, the M3 is the performance version of a 335i and they should have compared the M3 to Ford's high performance (yet still much cheaper) version of the mustang called the GT500 where it would precisely get it's *** stomped into the ground.

Amen.

They also should have compared the 328i to the '11 Mustang 5.0 since it's more similar in price than the BMW M3. The Mustang would have made that car look like it was going in reverse in any sort of performance measurement.
