335is or Mustang 5.0??

I've owned both. This is a false statement.

My words may have come across wrong. I've owned both a 370z and a 335i and I've test driven two 2011 Mustang's with the premium package. While the new Mustang's interior is leaps and bounds better than the the 2005-2009 models, it still 3rd among those three cars. There are still quite a few low rent plastics and odd ergonomic features that you just don't see in the BMW or the 370. That's not to take anything away from the Mustang either, it's an awesome machine, but this isn't one of it's strong points IMO.

I disagree. When I test drove the Mustang I wasn't really impressed. It isn't bad, but I didn't think it was better than my Z. I thought it was on par with the Corvette, minus the steering wheel, which was better in the Mustang.
