But Jeep wranglers sound so good. And have just an engaging driving experience - more authentic than the sterile F80. And they were invented by the side that won the war against those bavarian driving jerries.

(is there a fancy emoticon/smiley for :stirring shit up:? )
...and yet these same people who argue for the supremacy of performance metrics will be the first ones clamoring about intangibles (probably not sound with the F80, but we'll certainly hear about handling, poise, luxury, and driver confidence) when the new Mustang and Camaro are faster 0-60 mph, 1/4 mile ET and Trap, around the Nordschleife, around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca with Randy Pobst, and in every YouTube video repeated ad nauseum on Jalopnik.

I hate to be a buzzkill. Believe me, I'm not the guy leaving BMW to buy a Mustang next year. I'm all for the F80 to be successful, but I'm so tired of the bickering by all parties. It's constant back and forth and often, like this, unnecessary.
