Bit of background to my vehicle story (dont worry sounds a bit crazy too me aswell lol) :

8 Months ago I went to a dealership saw a car that I really liked but there was really 0 chance of getting it, anyway I put my hand on it and I said lord I want this car, I claim it whether I get in a year or 2 years I'm going to get it.
8 months later I am very excited as you guys all know I was considering buying a mustang or BMW m2, I get a message from a dealer I know he says he has one allocation for a car, coincidentally the same car I put my hand on 8 months ago but a slightly better version, I think nothing of it as it still too expensive. The next day he phones me and he says if I take the car he give me 70k discount, I tell him I need a 100k discount to do the deal, that was on a Friday. Monday he phones me and says he can give me 90k discount, so then I tell him if I take the car I need settlement from my current vehicle, needless to say I got the 90k discount and he settles my car. I gave the dealer the vehicle spec I wanted and the car was officially ordered on 04/02/16, scheduled arrival was 27 of May.


Update
So now I am getting my dream car, specced the way I want, but that wasn’t enough lol, I have being praying for the vehicle to arrive earlier because the wait is killing me. I saw yesterday that my car finished production 4 days early so the expected delivery date was now 23 of May. About an hour ago the dealer phoned me and told me that my car is moving at a rapid pace and now arriving end of April. So excited it is unreal! Still hoping for earlier date though:rollsmile:

If it's a special car and you had 0 chance of getting one, I think I may know what it is :rollsmile: Keen to see though.

Congrats bud

Curious what do you think it is? i had 0 chance of getting at that time because of the price. Special, thats such a subjective word, its definitley special to me though. The car is mass produced but i think my spec will be rare.

So just to add my 2 cents even though you decided on a car...

Although the M2 looks like a girls car, I know its going to be an epic driving machine... I, however, do not think its worth R800k...

2nd, the Mustang is special. A close friend of mine bought one together with his father. Its a beautiful looking machine... but I have some issues with it, and some disappointments...

My father has an 08 Supercharged Mustang Salleen. Its loud, as a Mustang should be, extremely loud... extremely fast, and it wants to kill you all the time.

The new Mustang, is extremely quiet, you can barely hear the V8 outside the car, never mind the inside...

2nd, up here in Joburg, it really felt so slow. It is amazing how refined it is in terms of the drive and quality of ride compared to the previous years mustangs. It almost felt as solid and well put together as any BMW i've driven. But it was so slow. For "306"kw I expected so much more. Maybe at the coast its inner monster comes out.

We took the mustang and my 328i on the highway and did a couple pulls and we were pretty much dead even. And my car is the stock 184kw.

Maybe the engine still needs to be run in I dont know... but getting back to OP first post, If I had to choose between the 2, i would still go the Mustang, because Mustang. #pedigree #blessed

Awesome result! 328 is so under estimated!

i knew the mustang would never stand a chance against turbo charged cars here in JHB. Maybe a better chance in CT and KZN who knows, I am still doubtful though

agreed at the coast probably a much different story. If i lived in Joburg naturally aspirated cars wouldnt even be on my radar
