So took my girlfriend's escape in to the dealer for service, and noticed two 5.0's sitting in the lot. They ended up giving me a good number on my M, so I brought the 5.0 home!!!

That's awesome! I definitely didn't expect to see this when I saw 5.0 in the title. Guess we'll all have to get used to the new car's being called 5.0's too. How would you compare it to the M3?

I think it's hard to compare the M to the mustang. Just two different types of cars.
There are a few turns near my house that I usually take at 80 mph in the M, but I don't think the mustang could swing it. The mustang seems really heavy thru the turns...maybe too much roll or something. Flat-out straight line...the thing rips.
My M was a 2006.
Must find springs & exhaust.

Congrats man! Looking to hear how it compares to your M...
Good buy Tim.

Aren't M's also 3600#?
Without looking up stats, I would think the mustang is actually better in every category, when equipped with 3.73's and the 14" brembo upgrade.
Nice car....I'll be curious to hear of the fuel mileage results in comparison to the M as well.

Congrats on the 5.0!
A friend of mine has an 08 m3 and I have been trying to convince him to go with either a 5.0 or the gt500. he complains that neither of them have enough "status" or "practicality" of course this was someone who was nutting over the GT-R for a year and half until he got the M3 so who knows.
I'll be looking for an update on a comparison between the two cars!
