Jay, I'm sorry, but you're an idiot. You can't lump all people of a country together like that. And just for your information (I'm so angry right now you can't even imagine it), Dubai didn't have anything to do with the 9/11 attacks, just like Iraq. Most of the hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. Now go and look it up on a map or use a globe. Go and try to even locate the country Omar lives in, then come back and talk again. After that, will you please tell me who "they" are. And last but not least let me tell you that Dubai is the most liberal emirate of the United Arab Emirates (I bet you don't even know what this is).

Wombert, you replied before I could edit the posts, so your reacting to what others won't see.

Omar:
Very cool man, its great to see the car have the same impact (sometimes even more so) in other countries as its as rare as seeing some exotics in North America!

The sad thing about people like Jay is that it's people that take that kind of thinking to an extreme, who become as bad as, if not worse than the terrorists. :notnice:

Omar, nice to see that Stang fever knows no country boundaries.

Been to Dubai, amazing place with great people. The Navy has given me the opportunity to travel. Nice to see the Mustang having a world impact like that.

congrats omar.its great knowing that the car we know and love most is going to travel and impact lives all over the world just as it has here

and jcopin, i dont know what you sed, but im guessin that it had something to do with arabs and 9/11 by wonberts post. and he's rite. shame on your hiney for saying somthun like that. this is a CAR FORUM. we talk about CARS. we dont diss ppl for bein different or make stereotypical judgements. i have alotta good friends who are middle eastern and they love stangs. i dont judge by looks. i judge by character. try it sometime. sorry to everybody or goin off topic again, but i just had to say this. im pretty offended rite now.

Guys just as a heads up, lets refrain from bringing the negative comments to light. Keep it strictly on the car

Personal Message for private conversations.
Thank you, carry on.

Omar, it means a lot to ME, & does my heart good! I'll be a 1st time Mustang owner, & hope to be accepted into the fold of current & past owners. With the climate of the world today, if only the Mustang & other interests could bring us together. Thankyou for posting, & hope you post often. Peace.

arin, i can speak for qatar in that there are quite a few camaros and stangs (all v8s) in doha, as well as the customary porsches, mercedes, beemers, etc etc. petrol is about 85c/gal, so we can afford to have gas guzzlers. it was quite a shock to come to the US and your $2+ gas prices.
