Saying that, this is a fine machine Ford, mighty fine.

That white paint and blue stripes.

Isn't a 3 series entry level luxury though?  Entry level luxury car interiors aren't all that great. 

M3 is entry level now?

I mean it has basically the same interior as a 328i/335i but to say those interiors arent great? I mean if youre in Lamborghinis and Aston Martins all day then yeah, I guess.

I swear..

I'm always against buying a used sports car.  Cause 9/10 you know most time when you picking up a used M3/V-tech or maybe even a GTR...the dude who had it drove it like he was auditioning for Fast Five.

335 interior is at like the same level as a C-Class Benz.  I personally think it is slightly better.  They are cool, but I definitely wouldn't consider it "great" in terms of luxury cars.

The 3 series interior isn't a huge upgrade over the top Mustang interior. Maybe if you are talking about a 7-series, or maybe even 5-series, but definitely not the 3.

Ford has been closing the gap between other automakers on interiors.  These aren't the same Ford interiors that they were making back in like 1999-2000.

Here you go again mocking someone's preferences. This act has gotten tired. Not everyone will want to drive a Ford over a C63 AMG dude.

 

[nocomment6]

impressive actually.

 

[al audi]

Lemme rephrase

I rather have an m3 if it had those specs, an somebody explain how the hell they pulled off the mpg? Specs are crazy.

Easy... Huge overdrive/top gear. Every manufacturer is doing this.

thats for damn sure. but to be fair, majority of american cars justify low maintenance costs with low quality

. that's why japanese cars are the best mix. you get superior quality by comparison, but the costs are less compared to german cars. hell my boy who's a huge VW fan said that audis are the worst in terms of cost and difficulty...which is a shame because audi's design game is

right now.

but ima cosign ninjahood on this one. ill take a gtr anyday over this, but for a 3.5 sec car for that price deserves respect. with that said, a used GTR prolly will run u around that anyways and u get the bonus of AWD and better styling imo.


props to ford tho for sticking with a OG clutch.

at it being a rarity nowadays.

 

[coldcity]

saw this in person & it looks really cheap up close .... im good on the fix or repair daily

 

[airthompson]

Love all American cars, but ZL1 over the Shelby.

Love the new headlights paying homage to the '70, but the thew tail light change is ugly imo.

Right? Dude constantly tries to push American Muscle down everyones throat. Why doesn't he just buy one with his Porsche money

. The only dude on NT I truly trust with opinions on cars is RFX

And.....?

 

[cafinest23]

Ford is trying to take over the game.
662hp for 55k? Hopefully they've redone the suspension and ditched that live rear axle.

Edit looks like they kept the live rear axle. SMH the only advantage to that is better launches on a drag strip which makes sense but i'd rather have it handle better.

 

[denni5themenace]

I ain't eem into american cars but this car goes hard.

Ninja is all about "bang for your buck", but speed isnt everything. A second faster in the 0-60 is not that serious unless you trying to track your or something. Not even that, but no one is trying to pull their best 0-60 time after each red light.
