After having the Mustang for over a year, I've got to say that it's a fun car. Track Pack w/ 3.73s helped. It's really a different animal than the M3 though. I wouldn't really attempt to compare the two, although mine was built for much the same purpose as the M3. It really is a track car in my configuration, and was wonderful to drive on twisty roads.

That being said, I see the M3 as a step up at every point.
No offense but the 2010 GT is a nice car but with the older 4.6L it kind of pales in comparison to the 2011's 5.0L. That being said everything else about the car is pretty much the same and your assesment of the M3 vs. the Mustang is pretty much dead on. I almost bought a 2011 GT but after owning 2 E46 M3s and a 07 997S the rest of the Mustang, while light years better than the 05-09 Mustang, just wasn't up to snuff vs. a E9X M3.
