The Mustang is a great car, but it's muscle car. The FT86 is a sports coupe, which is closer in character to a sports car (e.g. Mazda Miata, Honda S2000). It doesn't have any direct competition, since the next cheapest sports coupe is the $30K Nissan 370Z.

Comparing a muscle car to a sports coupe and pointing at the higher acceleration and skidpad is missing the point.
