Shelby in this video looks like a big dark colored pussy that will never go up in value and won't get you stares or thumbs up on the street like the STI will :) Neither it will ever beat the STI. Neither will your GF be fond of you ever again when you get passed by a said STI while driving your Shelby GT... LOL :)) Chill.....

The shelby name will always give value to a car. Plus I bet the Mustang will beat the Sti in acceleration in "real" life performance...

This Mustang is a really nice car. Most people couldn't tolerate the Sti for the money. I would much rather have a 335i for the money..

in "real" life performance, on the street, with all that dust and rocks the Mustang will be burning the tires while the STI will already be at the next intersection.

Sure, why not be the slow bloke in 335i vs being fast in the STI, which outperforms the 335i in every way? Wow, cool choice, dude!

You cant get a 335i for $35k, the base price is around $40k, and will go up to $50k with options.

omg this is the most useless car vid on here, who BEFORE watching this didnt know a AWD lighter car was gonna beat a RWD heavier car both with very similar power.... wow just a dumb vid

Lets see, the 335i ... ( 1 day ago by mercarian7)

Lets see, the 335i is faster, has a better powerband, traps higher, has a nicer interior, better brakes, and costs around the same (a base 335i is around the same as an optioned Sti). So in todays world, it is the "cool" choice.

335i is way slower ... ( 1 day ago by 13rus)

335i is way slower than an STI, do your research. Yes it has bigger brakes but it is a heavier car. Yes it has a broader torque curve. But you get small trunk, RWD and a $3K heavier price tag for the base model over the STI. And guess what? On the street, STI will walk all over the 335i, breakfast lunch and dinner, every day of the year. BMW coolness factor is disputable, and like I said - you can be cool and slow, or cool and fast, your choice. I'd definitely take the 335i vs a Mustang though.

I did do my ... ( 1 day ago by mercarian7)

I did do my research and there quarter mile times are similar. However the Sti traps about 4-7mph slower then the Bmw. To achieve quick times in an Sti, you would have to launch the car fairly hard. Hypothetically even if the Bmw driver were to launch horribly (while the Sti achieved a fast launch), the 335i would inevitably walk by it at higher speeds.SO please stop making blanket statements like the Sti would never lose to a 335i, your coming off like a fanboi

You say RWD like ... ( 1 day ago by SuperSexyPantz76)

You say RWD like it's a bad thing. I'd rather have a well sorted RWD car (i.e. 335i) than an AWD car that pushes more than a sumo wrestler (i.e. STI).

You are right, the ... ( 22 hours ago by 13rus)

You are right, the STI traps slower than the BMW on the track. On the street it is a different story as BMW lacks the traction AWD provides. The difference in trap speeds is due to difference in gearing. BMW is 1 lb per horsepower heavier than the STI so I doubt it will ever pass the STI (up to top speed). STI's 5th and 6th gears are lower than BMW's thus STI will be faster past 1/4 mile which it hits in it tall 4th gear. I would love to see a head to head comparison between the two.

For daily, all ... ( 22 hours ago by 13rus)

For daily, all season driving, AWD rules. If you live somewhere where there's no snow and little rain, then RWD is good. In other areas it's simple - why buy a sports car if you can't drive it like it's supposed to be driven for 8 months out of the year? Thus I think for daily, all-season driving, an AWD sports car is a superior buy. Having owned many RWD sports cars I know first hand that the RWD is more fun. Yet again, I like driving my cars daily and not have them sit in the garage.

I will stop ... ( 22 hours ago by 13rus)

I will stop discussing BMW's in STI vs Mustang area now.

While your right ... ( 11 hours ago by mercarian7)

While your right about the traction issue, the 335i is still pulling off sub 5 second 0-60 times (even in auto). Also there are plenty of video's on here showing the difference in "pull" between the two cars, I suggest checking them out. I believe there is a video on here that compares the Evo X to the 135i. I know its not what you wanted to see, but its probably the closest thing well get. Finally, most sources are stating the 335i is an underrated car from the factory.

if you really want ... ( 5 hours ago by helldamnfart)

if you really want to compare top model to top model, then compare the V Spec GTR which comes out in 2010 to any PRODUCTION Mustang and the mustang will get DESTROYED in EVERY category, not just 40 out of 42. Still wana compare top model to top model? seeing as the V Spec will cost somewhere around $110K and the best PRODUCTION mustang is around $50K. So is that Apples to Apples or Apples to Oranges according to your definition?
