Sigh. You are both missing the point. It's all about how the power is delivered. I assume a Mustang delivers it with a deep bellow when you plant your right foot.
Not that I'd have one, tbh. My old C63 AMG did all of that which actually becomes rather hard to live with. That and having to replace the tyres every 6000-8000 miles.
It does sound ok then delivers you to 60 in a relativelysedentary 5 seconds.
Hang on.
You don't buy a powerful car and then moan that it is 'rather hard to live with'
That's the whole fúcking point of them.
And why you also have a rather sensible diesel to do the mundane stuff in.
“Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”
Well when I bought my Merc I was hoping that it could be both an everyday car and also something to have some fun in. Fun it was... But the drone from the exhaust on long motorway runs (which is most of my driving these days) was annoying. That and it would do about 22mpg at absolute best.
Now I have a 435d which can go from 0-62 in 4.8 seconds which is fun. And on the motorway it's like a lamb. Wonderfully comfortable.
When I've finished tearing the insides of my house out I may check to see if the finances allow a weekend vehicle. A Caterham, perhaps.
