[@TheFirstCause]

The Mach 1 truly is the first time since the 2018 refresh that I've thought 'yes that looks awesome with no down side'. Like many I wasn't happy with the 2018 Mustang refresh, but I liked aspects. The taillights were great. The headlights bothered me, but I did like that angles on the bumper. Some of the lines on the hood gave it a 'saggy by close to the windshield look' that I didn't like. It did slightly grow on me in general but I still had issues. But that Mach 1 front bumper is AWESOME and works perfectly with the headlights I wasn't a fan of before. I used to own a 2016 Camaro SS. Had to sell to help grow my business. Covid didn't' help either. But when I'm looking to buy again I'd seriously consider getting a GT and do a bumper swap to get this look.

[@islandon22]

I owned a 69 Mach 1, 428CJ and we currently own a new Lexus SUV. Hardly a comparison, but having been in Car Sales Mgmt for much of my life, I know that ownership of a Lexus/Toyota will be far more enjoyable than anything produced by Ford. But I would never opt for the stick. Between endless hours commuting from Burlington to Toronto on Canada's biggest parking lots, the Q.E.W. and the Gardiner Expressway in summer, or sitting in Las Vegas' Spaghetti Bowl in winter. Excellent video, by the way!!!

Especially the fact that the mk5s chassis alone is already pretty capable of outperforming both with just a few mods so tuning them isn't going to do much especially for how long both have been around and both weighting more in the process. And Even if it shares parts with the Z4 it's irrelevant to even bring it up when the amount of mk5s being bought are completely trampling the amount Z4s being bought to where it really doesn't matter and is even surpassing both lexuses in sales currently.

Yea they could've made the car themselves but theres always some sort of drawback when toyo makes these sort of cars anyway especially if it's something like the mk5, mainly since toyo sucks at pricing these sorts of cars anyway. Even their review of the RC track made it pretty clear it isn't worth for what their asking for and them doing the same with the supra wouldn't change that(wouldn't make sense in doing anyway when the RC350 exists so there'd be no point in making a supra based off the RC chassis anyway)

Everyone rooting for a mustang is just eating with their eyes, you want a car that will start every time and not have stupid little things break every time you use it, pick the Lexus 💯. There’s no comparison other than they have 8cyl and are fast.

[@cashmoney7660]

I own a 2017 GT 350 Mustang I bought new no problems except for one recall to replace engine oil cooler hoses. I have 2013 F150 with 189,000 miles, just replaced my rear brakes for the first time and the engine has never even been tuned up yet runs perfect.

[@thirtyhitcheapz]

@@cashmoney7660 well then you got way better luck than most people I know. Myself I’ve never bought a used car but to this day, both f150s I got (2014,2015) have problems with doors not closing all the way, trunks falling open, windows letting air in, terrible electronics, the Damn hood latch stopped working on one and im just unhappy with them overall. They’ve had a couple dead bucks in them and The occasional bit of furniture but they’re normally just day by day mountain bike haulers. Still very upset with the quality. But the Lexus I got literally has zero issues besides a recall. My brothers drive Lexus too and the reliability is the same. I will say tho, a lot of the problems I’m having with these two trucks never happened on my old 2003 f150 that I traded in a while ago, without a doubt my next truck will be a tundra.

I'm loving this comparison! So glad to see more videos with the Mach 1!

[@1LE_Ciko]

Gah that Lexus IS fugly imo.. also Lexus vehicles are beyond over price for the performance, they’re always dead last in their class when it comes to performance.. I get the reliability is there but it doesn’t justify the price..

RCF with full NOVEL header back exhaust sounds exotic!

[@TheStraightPipes]

Yes

[@Zelow.]

Lol a lot of people don't have a clue how good the RCF can sound with a full novel setup. If the car came sounding like that from factory it would be the much more popular option regardless of it being less powerful to the competition.

[@jacoballen1380]

Just can’t beat a great manual transmission. I definitely agree with you guys. The GT350 is my realistic dream car though, so I’m bringing a lot of bias.

[@RSRS-ws3px]

I think most of the bad shifting feel in a regular 5.0 is from the shifter itself and not so much the transmission. I had a 2014 Stage 3 Roush and of course I didn’t enjoy shifting it until I installed the MGW shifter. It completely changed the driving experience! It felt silky smooth and just clicked into gears once it was installed. The BMR suspension and one piece drive shaft also added to the driving fun.

[@AlexRosskopf]

if both were manual, i think i would go with the lexus for the luxury

Price difference is just enormous here. You could get the Mustang AND a really nice automatic sedan or crossover for what the Lexus costs...

One of your best reviews ever. Great job as usual. This comparison is one I've been wanting for a long time. Now lets have one with the non-track versions after all, how many will ever track these cars? This Mustang wins on price and the Lexus wins because it a Lexus. I'm older so the Lexus wins of course. Never really like this latest generation Mustang. Liked the looks of the previous one better.

I gotta make an argument on your exhaust look rating. I think the fact you can see the massive resonators behind the RCF’s exhaust kills the look. If you couldn’t see the resonators then it’d be a win no doubt.
