Peter, Ich war vor 10 Jahren fuer 4 Jahren in Bayern stationiert als US Leutnant. Haben Sie schon die Moeglishkeit die Wagen zu fahren gehabt?
I habe immer basis Modelle Mietwagen (z.B. BMW 528, Mercedes E280) gefahren. Niemals ein echt US Muscle Car probiert auf die Autobahen.
I wurde die Wagen um 0200 Uhr auf ein freie/leer Autobahn gut aus probrieren.
Hier, in Amerika, schon auf 130 km/h ist meine fuhrerschein in Gefahr!
(PS: Ich habe mein 'nicht Duden Deutsch' von Fernsehen und Bild am Sonntag gelernt!)

Charles,
thanks to write in my language and really you learnt it from TV an Newspaper.... very nice thanks again. So, to your question. Yes ,I drove the car but not 200Km/h cause it s new. I drove it max 170 (105mph) for a second and than about 100(65mph) outside city. The car feels great but the best I think is the exhaust sound and the sound of closing the doors, thats awesome!! Thats pure quality. Forget about to close a BMW 3 coupe door, thats really cheap!!! I love the new Mustang inside, outside, everything! Wombert, the stripe job is vinyl but I was not satisfied, so they did it again the right way. I gave them the measures of shelby striping from this homepage
http://www.titchenal.com/mustang/steptwo.htm
and they made the typical mistake and don t look at the plan. Here you can see that the beginning of the hood-stripe is smaller than on the windshield how to do it on the roof and and and. Tomorrow I will send updated pics. The company who made the Job is TRIM LINE in Munich/Sendling. Now they know it how to do. The price? Give them a call.
To the diesel Plan, hmmm... I think every car is possible for a diesel engine, if it s not a Mustang! (Do you know, Jaguar is offering a Diesel in Europe!!) I prefer for the Mustang a nice V8. The bigger the better.

Sehr Geherter Peter,
Congratulations! Ich hab viel gluck, weil ich wohne bei der Hockenheimring, und kann echt richtig proben, wann der motor ist nach 1500 km.
Sorry man, I speak pretty well, but almost never write in German, and it is very late. How much did you pay to fly your baby across the Atlantic, if you do not mind my asking, and how long did it take? I am weighing my options.
Vielen Dank,

No, dealing with Customs or the Zollamt is never funny, but they have always been nice to me. Cost is an issue, but if I can get on the low end (perhaps flying out of JFK, instead of California) that may be worth it next time.
$1,200 by ship X 2 months aggravation (29 Sep till ???) vs.
$4-6,000 by plane X 1 week aggravation
I am assuming I go to the factory, or a dealer in the vicinity, and drive to NY, and since I am exempt from German tax, I have my paperwork beforehand and spend only 3 days in the Cargo section of Frankfurt Int'l.
Thanks for the information, and consider a trip down/up here, there are many enthusiastic Americans with Mustangs in this area. PM me if you wish, and thanks again.

That's Dutch, instead of German, Boss. A little worse than two people speaking only slang, one from the 'holler and one from the 'hood.
They liked it.

Translation above.

Peter, vie gehts? Not all your pictures are showing up. That is a beautiful car and stripe job. Congrats! Can you make the rest of the pics bigger like the first few pics? Thanks.

Peter,
Are you saying the stripes get bigger as they go up the hood?
Isn't that they way they are supposed to be if you're copying a Shelby?
If they're not, would you mind measuring the width and the distance between the stripes.
Any way you could email me those pictures individually or post them seperately?
I love that combo on the '05. I have the same plans for mine and add some black wheels.
