This morning while driving to work I stopped at a traffic light in the city. Coming from the other side, I noticed an Aston Martin DB9 approaching slowly in a line of cars and finally stopping just next to me. I was like this: when the other driver (around mid 40s) rolled down his window and gave me a and a big nod. Of course I answered back, after wiping the drool off my chin . I thought this was the coolest moment since owning this car! So cool, I don't even care if I posted in the wrong forum!

As much as I love my GT, I'd have run off with his DB9 without even thinking about it!
Maybe I'll ask my neighbour who has a Ferrari 355 (blue! ) AND a Carrera GT2 and always comes over to have a look whenever I'm working on my mods
It's funny to see how the Mustang is seen as a cool, high-performance car here, while in the US it's just the "working man's" sports car. Maybe because they are so rare and completely different than the European sports coupes.

They aren't rare around here, if I had a dime for every Mustang I passed, I'd have a lot of dimes!

I pulled up next to a brand new Phantom Rolls Royce.....I was going to say nice car when the guy surprised me with "wanna race...i'll eat ya" a split second later...the light went green and my tires were squeeling. He held with me for a second or two and then it was over. He caught up to me at the next red light and he and his wife were complimenting my car! hahaa...his is worth lets see 400,000 dollars and he's giving me the thumbsup lol. I asked him what he's got he said V12...482hp :shock: Owned!

If you guys like to see exotics on the road...drive your Mustang to Miami. In one day I saw 2 Aston Martins, Lotus, Lamborghini Countach, Acura NSX, Ferrari with a young hot blonde, it's a car lovers paradise and your Mustang can hold up with most of them
