Performancestrong consensus
This engine and gearbox combo is to die for so good. 4:58 Zygrene
I've driven the FB800, which is the upgraded car from Ford. It's amazing. It's great. 7:47 ThatDudeinBlue
Handlingstrong consensus
I've driven them back to back, and the S650 to me is the winner. It drives better. 4:42 ThatDudeinBlue
The magnaride dampers and upgraded springs feel so track capable they handle these bumps really well. 5:25 Zygrene
Fun to drivesplit
I think for just under $75,000 this might be not necessarily fastest although it might be very close but one of the most enjoyable cars you can drive on track. 6:14 Zygrene
it does remove a lot of the personality from owning a Mustang. Like say you just want to do like a cold air intake, exhaust, stuff like that. Well, that typically needs a retune. 8:01 ThatDudeinBlue
Daily drivabilitystrong consensus
It's a more premium feeling car. It drives smoother. It's a nicer interior. It feels more like a GT car. 3:08 ThatDudeinBlue
it's a tad faster more capable GT essentially but still very comfortable and daily drivable. 1:43 Zygrene
Valuesplit
it's just too much for me at the moment and I think too much for most people in the car scene for a twodoor muscle car or sports car. 12:21 ThatDudeinBlue
I think that's what I was talking about earlier this might be the most driver Centric car you can buy brand new right now. 10:23 Zygrene
