Default Ford Mustang GT

** June 09: Ford Mustang GT indepth **

So, many american cars these days in this section after eurocopter, my turn to show you some Mustang GT

Actually this isn't really the perfect indepth: we didn't have lot of time and I still had the crappy non-stabilized 90-300 mm, but it's still a charming car, at least in Europe. This one has a free exhaust and it's pretty loud! I love the fact the exhaust tips seem so damn small and "stock" it's not the case
As for the NOS, it was a "work in progress"
I actually drove it for a while and I must say it makes you feel good! At cruise speeds it is a pleasure: effortless auto tranny, loud when you need, quiet burble and you want to be stealth and quite some punch when you push it! You feel some wobbliness, but didn't drive it hard enough to really complain. As for the interior quality (sorry Paul), well, yes it's no S-Klass, but to be honest, that's not what really matters in such a car, especially around here. it just feel special, I like it especially with those Pony wheels: too many modern Mustangs have BIG 20 inches bling wheels. IMO totally against the retro look Ford gave it :bad:

Get yourself some blue sky, those clouds are depressing.

Not a huge fan of the car, but the photos are top notch. I especially like the group shots.

Great pics TT .. I like the reflection of the branches on the black hood. Very cool positioning of the car against the "castle" and hedges.

Also I notice you have taken some detail shots as well. Thanks for that.

HAHA, it was back in February, and a hell of a bad day with incredible levels of pollutions adding to the nice color in the sky :bah:

hehe, not unlike a bottom model 1.3l Jetta right? Afterall the Mustang is a cheap mass produced car for the masses

Maybe you didn't had a lot of time for this in depth, but you can't tell it from the pics! They are great, a nice location as background and some lovely detailed pics

I like the 3some shots from ahead, the details are amazing
but IMO the location infront of the castle doesn't suit to the Mustang :bah:, the picture infront of the brushwood is very nice

Thanks TT for this Indepth!

It's a church just for the records and I thought the contrast between historical old continent bits and a muscle car from the new continent could be interesting

ok, but the strength, the power of the car is missing in the church pics (the 2nd preview pic excluded) , same goes for the third previewpic, this car neeed some tarmac under the wheels

Nevermind, a nice set of pics!
