Mustang Test Drive in Germany

Hello @ all,

currently i'm in South Africa, so whenever i'm going back to germany for a short vacation, i try to ride a Stang.
In 2008 i drove a Mustang Convertible V6 and last august i drove a Kona blue 2011 Mustang GT Coupe.

After 2 days with the GT it felt quite hard to say good bye, but this year i hope to be able to get the BOSS 302 for at least 2 days. If not, my dealer told me i can have the Shelby GT-500, which will also be not that bad at all.

Can't wait to come back to germany, after business is done here in south africa (Feb. 2012), so i can buy myself my own Stang.

All the best,

Stefan

Hi,

Gunzenhausen is a nice little town, especially the cars there are very nice! *G*

I was driving on the Autobahn at appr. 230KM/H. to much traffic at this time.
But no need to be worried about, still smooth handling.
But the 6th gear as way to long in terms of ratio.

But the funny thing was:
When i decided to rent to Stang 5.0 for 2 days i though, ok, let's push the car hard ect,ect and see what it's all about....butonce i drove it, i didn't want to go fast, just because it's so much fun to cruise on the Landstrasse, overtake somebody quickly, the cruise again.
Waiting at the robot to get green signal, accelerate quickly, cruise again, play a little bit around with throttle, watching all the other people walking next to the streets turning their heads, ect, i think you guys know what i'm talking about.

Anyway, let's see if i can get the Boss or the GT-500 in july when i'm back for some weeks in good old germany.

Thanks,

Stefan
