Just because a modern #Mustang might have the base V6 under the hood, that doesn't…
Jack Baruth decided to look for the best $30,000 sports car by pitting the Scion FR-S against a five year old +Porsche Boxster. While the Porsche beat the Scion, he also found a remarkably capable alternative at the same price point, a brand new +Ford Motor Company Mustang V6 with the Mayhem package.
Brought to you by the same team that created the marvelous Boss 302, even the "entry level" V6 engine generates more than 300 hp and a fairly stout 280 lb-ft of torque. Some things do indeed get better with age?
The Comparison: Accelerated Depreciation
It used to be that the best car you could buy for $30,000 was inevitably a new car, but now that cars are lasting longer, the choice is no longer a forgone conclusion. So which is best: a new FR-S, or a used Porsche Boxster?
