    Because the new ECOboost is way more bad ass?

    Than what? Than the 8000+ RPM M motors with ITBs? Really?

    Because the new SHO > any BMW.

    Hope you like driving an automatic, Barbie.

    The new SHO looks like an interesting car for people want a big 360hp sedan... like the Audi S8 would sell you back in 2001... or the M5 BMW would sell you back in 1993...

    [both of which are cheaper than an SHO now but probably wont be in 5 years]

    You can appreciate some of the good things Ford is doing without going off the deepend. There is one reason to prefer a Taurus SHO over a BMW: because your ass is too fat to fit in the BMW.

        For ride quality/interior yes there is no doubt I would want an M3 over the Mustang. Just like there is no comparison in the ride quality and interior quality between my Lexus and my Mustang. But for those on a "budget" (I don't really consider $31,000 to be budget material) I would no doubt pick the Mustang over the M3.

        Although I must say, as far as reliability is concerned there is no question that the Mustang has been far more reliable than the Lexus. And when something does break or needs to be replaced, it is a lot cheaper AND easier to do on the Mustang than on the Lexus. Even something stupid like changing plugs requires you to take the entire top half of the engine off on the Lexus, the mustang is just moving around the plug wires.

            I disagree with the Ford having inferior quality than a BMW. Ever since the 1980's every auto maker in the world has been trying to perfect the Toyota Processing System (TPS), yes even BMW. They have been trying to copy the higher quality manufacturing manufacturing while reducting production cost. I will agree that 10 years ago they would have been inferior, but not today. When it comes to quality, there is little difference between any of the major car companies. Ford started making extremely smart decisions a long time ago which is why they are so successful now.

              You're retarded if you the SHO owners are the only ones who do this. Civic owners, Evo owners, Mustang owners, Eclipse owners, WRX owners...all of them have the tards that think theirs is the sweetest/fastest/best of them all.

                        As if the ego that owning an M3 garners is any less significant. I think you know/met a couple of tools that have SHO's and are a little biased.
