The best Mustang ever made to YOU.

The best all-around Mustang, objectively is the S55 Mach 1 HP. The most bad ass Mustang ever is the S550 GT500. The best collector's Mustang is the S550 GT350R.
"Objectively"? Lol. We'll agree to disagree, although my opinion includes the 350R. Not talking about collector value. Talking about road racing ability.

Buy a Model S Plaid. It will destroy either of your "choices" on the street, it requires no maintenance, thereby requiring basically no automotive or mechanical knowledge, and Tiktok and Bookface patrons will think you're the coolest 19 year old in town.
No maintenance ? Wait until the tires need replaced, due to the torque that car has it punishes the sidewalls and requires special tires. Customer of mine has one and he went to get tires from the Goodyear store and they told him that it is a tire only offered by Tesla and they would not put tires on it due to liability. He said Tesla wants 6K for 4 tires, but there is a waiting list as they don't have any available. That's just what I was told. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think that’s true. Maybe 6k for the wheels and tires. The tires are Goodyear supercar R3s. You can get a set of 4 for around $2400.

Lol look at all the non GT350 owners getting dragged in here. This is a troll-fest.

I took a ride in my neighbors Ludacris Tesla.....From a visceral, raw car experience there was nothing. I felt like I was either on the NY subway or back at Great America riding that one of those "start fast" rides.. thrilling for about 2 seconds and then.. Yawn..... Sorry, I just don't get it....

you were told wrong. I have had 2 Teslas. A model S and a Y. They both require high performance, XL load tires but nothing more expensive than what my Mustang requires.

And yes, aside from tires they basically are maintenance free. No fluids to change, no spark plugs, no fuel filters, no belts, the brakes pads and rotors last 100k because you almost never use them, no transmission to flush or replace filters.

I guess if the cabin filter counts as maintenance, then that.

This is what happens when TikTok starts a thread and states he has no automotive knowledge or experience, wants GT350 or Supra so that his homies like him more, but then never responds to the now 7 pages of dribble. Basically a cruise ship full of people, headed full steam to Antarctica, when the captain jumped overboard 3 days ago.

Yup. And the Supra's a hundred HP lower than the GTPP. I guess the question is, why did Toyota/BMW bother? A GTPP, Mach1, Bullitt, etc are all going to be faster and likely handle nearly as well on a Ford budget.
From the tests I've seen, a Mustang is faster in a straight line and it's faster around corners. It sounds better as well. I wouldn't be afraid to own one past its warranty.

The Supra has cooler styling (depending on your taste maybe I should say more striking styling or more unique rather than cooler. Frankly they seem a little ugly to me.), feels good in the corners because it's smaller, and the interior initial quality seems better. I would prefer not to own a BMW past its warranty.

And if you drive with Supra with the windows down, the wind buffeting is so bad it will burst your eardrums.

I wish the current Supra had more of a resemblance to its 90’s brother. Clean lines, big wang, not half BMW. That was a beautiful car. One of the few JDM’s that tickled my fancy.
