Happy mustang owner from Russia

Hello guys,

I was dreaming for this car for almost 5 years and finally bought 2011 Mustang GT (with manual transmission). Unfortunatly, due to russian taxes, Mustangs are very expensive here (for example i bought my car for almost 46 000 $) .

In my town its the first Mustang ever and people are very curious what car is it

After my previous car (Chrysler Crossfire SRT6) Mustang is way bigger and a bit faster. However, for me the suspension is too soft and stock brakes does not suits this cat power very well, so i am slowly improving it (added stripes, installed new front brakers, ordered a lot of differens aftermarket parts)

Nice to be here, a lot of useful information in this source helped me a lot.

Best regards,
Nikita Voroshilov

And few pics

What is it like living in Russia? What happens if you get caught speeding? Are the fines really high?

Nope. For example for now, if you drive speed limit (town 60 km/h , federal roads 90-110 km/h depending from the road) plus 20 km/h , no one will catch you, only warning for that. If you drive up to +40 km/h to speed limit it will be fee approx 14$, but most likely no one will stop you for that. If you drive up to plus 60 km/h to speed limit it will be approx 40$ fee and most likely cops will stop you for that. And only of you drive more than plus 60 km/h to speed limit cops can take out your driving license for 4-6 months + fee approx 1.300$

But our problems are roads. In central cities and regions they are mostly fine. But in other regions they are mostly awful

I live in pretty small town near Russian Finnish border in apartment, and private houses are not so popular in Russia as in USA (been there few times).

I work in shipbuilding , sales specialisation, we build mostly icebreakers for Baltic Sea region. Quite interests in job actually

sounds great! We don't see to much of normal day stuff here from Russia. Mostly political stuff. Sad actually.
