Great looking car, nice SS ducktail and clear front signal lenses.
Please share any experiences that you have on the autobahn or about the attention that the Stang gets in Germany.

The red light under the bumper would be the single red light required in Europe as a fog light. Not sure about the white one, though I know it too is required.

Ya, ever notice how come german cars drive around with what looks to be one tail light brighter then the other? that's what that is. my A4 had that and I used it in the fog/bad rain. People would always tell me that one of my brake lights was burned out [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Just another piece of clever german engineering. hehe

PS - Great looking mustang - is that a Duc next to it? Sweet bikes...

The reason for those 2 lights is a European regulation regarding the maximum height of the reverse lights and the rear foglights, requirement which isn't met by the current Mustang. However, for some unexplainable reason, I got away without them.
I've also seen pics of an even worse kind of adaptation, like this one:

They have parking lights for the car...they park part of the car on the curb and turn on the lights to warn other drivers...its only lights up the drivers side rear brake light and the front IIRC.

Haven't been to germany in 7 years so a bit rusty

The Ducati 996 and Mustang GT look fantastic together.

A dream driveway if there ever was one.
