Aston Martin vs Mustang

My whole life, which has been longer than many of yours, I have loved the styling of Astons. I cannot afford one, same as most people cannot. The neatest I can get is the current Ford styling. I loved the Fusion-----but the manual is gone. Anyway I prefer a coupe to a sedan; that is why I am buying a 2015 Mustang. In the color Guard which is closest to British Racing Green

Wait, really? I mean, I guess it's not surprising being a midsize and all, but the 1.6L is a great engine. Honestly, I'd buy it over the 2.0L, which IMO is not as good with the automatic.

The fact that the auto industry is emphasizing on exterior styling gives me hope for the future of the auto industry. The Mustang is a prime example of this. Not that the Mustang was ever ugly, but now that the Mustang is going up against the FRS and Genesis with the EB I think it was high-time for a new look.

I have driven two AM one stick one auto. Nice but in all honesty the Mustang is as much or more fun. Especially when you add just a little extra power to the Mustang. My friend with the Aston used tell me it was fast. He bought a DOB supercharged 2007 custom for a third of the price of a used AM and now he knows what fun is. Plus he feels more comfortable driving the Mustang.

The day I drove a DBS...............an awesome car, and the only supercar I'd want with a lottery win.






But S550 come close, real close, for a fraction of the price
