With the way your economy is and what your government leaders have done to the state, I'm surprised people still do.

 

Never lift. Steer with throttle. It's more fun that way.

 

Do not ever doubt that not waking up an hour early to dig your car out isn't a valid reason to not live in the great white north. Florida is the same in that respect. The number of people that come out of NY or NJ is just... Bleh, go back!!

 

In a sense the Ford Mustang is already global..you can buy one, left hand drive and all in Japan.

Oh yeah, the housing bubble, folks retiring up north were able to sell big, go down south, and buy a McMansion real cheap.

Why anybody would move to south eastern Va with all the taxes and oppressive summers is beyond me? The short mild season where it rains alot otherwise known as winter wouldn't have been justification enough for me if I had lived anywhere else.

 

Cool little microsite:

4.3 million Yen? I think they may want to work on that exchange rate, lol.

 

Steve Ling ( Ford North American Car Marketing Manager ) was there, walking Mustang Alley. I had another good conversation with him. I had talked with him for 1/2 an hour at Barrett - Jackson in West Palm Beach in April. He indicated in April, that an IRS was a less than 50/50 proposition of being included in the next gen Mustang. In a nut shell, they are looking to reduce Mustang weight...and unless they can come up with a way to really lighten up the IRS, it probably won't make the cut.

 

Thats just a cool $54k for a Mustang GT...

 

By the way, whats that emblem below the 5.0 on this site?

It may be a marker light, I know some countries require them.

 

Yep, it's a turn signal........or indicator as we call 'em.

Certainly in the UK we require indicators positioned on the side of the car. Mostly this is done with an ugly light drilled into the wing (fender!). I have small LEDs positioned under the wing mirrors on mine.

 

Its a turn marker...
