i don't disagree with you, but i think the BMW 128i will catch a lot of those sales.

If you read the news about the new Congressional MPG requirements looks like all cars, trucks, and SUVs will be the size of golf carts -- 37 MPG corporate average by 2020. Somebody's living in a make-believe world.....

The market for a Mustang is just that........it has no competition.
Apart from trucks, the Mustang is one of the most lucrative models that Ford enjoys.......it helps keep them alive. A 350Z? If you think these cars are focussed in the same market.....I'd like to get some of the **** you're smokin. A loaded stang is 2/3 of the price of a base Z.
Both cars are in the $25-$35k segment. Both are RWD. Both offer upgraded models. Both offer similar hp. Both come in coupe and convertible. Both offer a long list of amenities to choose from. Nah. They arent in the same segment....

Is this waht you are talking about?
http://www.bmw.com/com/en/index_narr.../overview.html

Are those BMW's even going to to be available here in the US, or are they coming in the next couple of years.

From the picks, I will not be buying one of those 1xx, no matter how fast it is.

I am considering buying a mustang or camero in the next 2 years. They look ausome, have big power, are affordable muscle cars. Thats why I want one.
