And I do look at the speedo on occasion.
Interestingly enough, an on-line automotive magazine (take your credibility shots here) recently compared the new Mustang, the new 350Z and the Mini Cooper S. The link is here. (I have the PDF file also if you like, although they distribute it for free). |
Interesting read. Really a strange comparison. I never would have thought of comparing those cars. I don't disagree with anything they say either. The Cooper is by far the best car to drive, they are just stupid amounts of fun. The Z is by far the most refined and most versatile. The Mustang is the drag racer, for certain. Having driven all of them, and owned two of them, I like their summary.
