“This BMW M4 feels more like a car for social media than for solitary driving” is the most 2021-auto-industry thing I’ve ever heard. Says a lot about the current state of the new car market. Ever since the new M3/M4 came out, I’ve been trying to ask myself, “what does the grille say in a broader sense about where the auto industry is these days?” I think Todd just answered that question brilliantly.

Both are brilliant cars, each with their plusses and minuses. The M4 has more class and a much nicer interior (the mustang's interior has a bit of a cheap look to me). I actually like that front end. It has significantly grown on me and looks very nice in reality. On the other hand, that mustang V8 sound just can't be beat. The mustang also oozes that raw muscle car spirit. It looks like it's going fast, even when parked. If I had to pick one I'd probably pick the M4. If I had enough money I think I would save myself the trouble of choosing and just buy both. Great job, Ford and BMW.

For a 40K extra over the Mustang, I'd expect the interior to be a lot nicer. Nobody seems to be talking about the cost difference here. For 100k one could have the Mach 1 and a nice medium size SUV to drive when the weather sucks or you want to haul the family to the beach for the weekend.

Yeah, M2 or the Supra. Also can't help but think $60,000 gets you a Corvette.

[@gian-lucbrasseur207]

I'd love to see the mach 1 handling package compared in this same format.

[@AruaBakayaro]

I'll take the Mustang. I cannot stand that front grill design of the M4.

[@chaddaniel-f8k]

When you actually load up a regular GT Premium Mustang with Magna Ride and all the goodies, you're approaching $60k, but are stuck with the less than desirable Getrag 6-speed (if you want a manual instead of the pretty good 10-speed auto). For a few extra thousand dollars, buying the Mach 1 and getting the Tremec 6-speed (and all the other GT-350/GT-500 goodies) is an absolute no brainer.

Another brilliant informative video. I think it was a great comparison. I didn't realise the similarities until I seen them both in side profile...I always enjoy the amazing camera work on these shoots, would be nice if you guys gave a shout out to your colleagues on the videos? But possibly you have done this on the podcast and I missed it? Anyway, loving your work!

[@EverydayDriver]

Glad you enjoyed this. There are only 4 of us making these episodes. Paul and Todd, joined by Chance and Edgar who are mentioned on the podcast and sometimes seen on camera. All four of us do trade off doing everything for filming and edit and are in the end credits. Thanks for watching!

[@craigyBow]

@@EverydayDriver ah I see thanks for the info. You guys make a great team! 👍

[@ZZ-ed6wp]

You should really do a manual Mach 1 handling pack vs m competition test including some track time 🔥

[@Lndmk227]

As much as I understand the "value" proposition of the Mustang, surely it wouldn't be too much to ask for them to take some stick-on leather or vinyl to dress up the interior just a bit. A few more pieces of aluminum trim wouldn't go unnoticed.

[@valentinorossi7771]

Guys, 40 grand difference in price and that makes the Mustang the winner by a county mile. Yes it is not as good as the M4 but for what Ford produces at that price you've got to declare the Ford as the winner.

[@vise5224]

That makes it better value. Not the winner. Use a dictionary and understand the meaning of words. Winning is when you beat it in majority of the categories. And these American cars have shitty quality n worse reliability them even the Germans. I'm not even talking about the expensive ford's but even the cheap ones. But for VALUE yes the Mustang is hard to beat. If the BMW is the latest iPhone then the mustang is a redmi phone

[@pettersaethre]

@@vise5224 bmw easily beat the mach on value with the 540i

[@valentinorossi7771]

@@vise5224 Ford could have - easily - built a BMW beater but chose to stick to a price point to appeal to the wider cross section of buyer.. It is a winner. It costs BMW so much to produce a car which Ford could match with a much lower price. Shit quality may be what your county produces. Most cop cars are Ford. If they were unreliable then they would not have been purchased.

[@benedict6027]

So much truths spoken. And those = signs confusing everybody

[@RNMAutomotiveAddiction]

Great review - Todd captured it well with thoughts on M4. I wish you guys can do a review with F8x DCT Comp version vs the new G8x Auto - I believe the loss of the DCT is a huge negative along with the hideous styling.

[@robertwhitey6621]

Back in 2003 when I bought my Mach 1 the M4 was our stiffest competition needless to say they could not hang with the Mach 1 on the dragway. On the street from a roll the M 4’s we’re tough to hang with.

[@dannypadilla7136]

I love how when BMW harness back to its roots, it's "not a BMW" rookies!

[@JH-rk9gd]

A friend bought a BMW M5, 3 year warranty and it was almost $150,000.00 out the door. Warrant ran out after 3 years started to cost money and he got a $63,500.00 trade-in, he said its only money

[@camcorp]

Human interaction sight and sound ...the Mach 1 is glorious. It brings out the bad boy in you. PLUS you needed a 4 speed

[@rwac07]

The specs on paper add up but in the real world the M4 is much much quicker (expected given the price difference), the S58 is an insane tuning platform

[@predatorshelby5780]

By "Much quicker" do you mean .2 seconds in the quarter mile from a 30 roll quicker. Also has less braking power, less lateral Gs and ugly as hell. For a 20-30k difference this isn't even close as to which is better.

[@rwac07]

@@predatorshelby5780 The difference in speed is night and day. The DCT runs easy 11's all day with the xDrive versions recording low 11's which the Mustang doesn't come close to (with much lower trap speeds). And an ///M car isn't intended to be a value car like a Mustang - its a BMW so it is going to be pricier but you're getting BMW's build quality not Ford's. Sure the Mustang looks much better and is better value but its not the better performing car, its not even close.

[@ceooflovingthehomies9294]

But the engine is way less fun.

[@tommygeary1931]

Were the aerial shots filmed at 24fps? because the judder is insane...

[@anoniem9518]

I really like the front of the to BMW. It is different, it is aggressive, it refers to the past. It really grew on me.

[@larryfishkind5387]

A couple times from certain angles on the front of the bmw looks very similar to the Alfa Romeo guilia. Great content ! Awesome cars !

[@itsalgud1459]

This is really an excellent description of both cars, very detailed and complete. As a long time lover of BMWs since the days of the 2002, I have to say they’ve really uglified this new model. If I bought one I’d have to park it every single time in such a way as when I came back to get it I would come from the back end of it and never have to look at the front end. From your descriptions I have to say the BMW doesn’t sound all that exciting. One big factor that you barely mentioned is the sound. There is absolutely no comparison whatsoever in the sound. If I imagine myself canyon carving in Colorado, no matter how well the BMW handles it would seem mundane. Definitely not so in the mustang. I hate to say it but between the two I would have to go with the Mustang.

[@hpkntnw]

2:10 the left one is an air intake. It takes about 5 minutes to pop it out and it’s a direct path to the air box.

[@josiahthibodeaux]

That spouse analogy was spot on.

[@rogerwolfe7302]

The 10r80 is a absolutely great trans for drag racing. I didn't buy it for rev matching bs but for great acceleration.

[@bthor5397]

Great review. Can’t wait to see Paul redesign the M4!
