Though, I am a bit bias.

I worked out the JCW additions alone were something like 13k on that car, madness. Can easily see 50k plus including factory options.

Isn't depreciation great

just as I bought it..

C.D. · 22-09-2012 06:30PM

Before anyone beats me to it, this is not a mid-life crisis.. I'm only 25! I recently moved to the States with work and decided to do the American muscle car thing. I spent a bit of time driving different Mustangs, Chargers and Camaros and settled on treating myself to a brand new, fully loaded 2013 Mustang.

3.7L V6, 305 bhp, 0-60 miles in 5.9 seconds, RWD. Extra options on top of standard spec: Xenons, dual climate control, upgraded 8 speaker sound system, leather, built in sat nav w/ DVD player, iPod / phone integration and all that lark. Pony appearance pack with 18" chrome alloys. The best part? Paid $32k (list $34k) which is about E26k. All my American colleagues think I'm mad, but you'd never get anything like this for that money back home. Insurance (equivalent of FC) is $1.8k which is also pretty reasonable on an Irish license. Unfortunately Ford's SYNC system (which allows you to control all of your media through voice commands) does not recognise my accent..

fair play to ya!! Enjoy her

Bit strange going back to driving "stick" as the Americans call it after 3 months in automatics. I have to think about what I'm doing! It's torture having to take it easy in her- recommended break-in period is 1,000 miles. The noise of the V6 is fantastic, going to take her out and down the Californian coastline in a few weeks. I shudder to think what the road tax let alone insurance would be on her back home.. and petrol at E1.70 litre. If you're a petrolhead you owe it to yourself to come to the US! Where a 2 litre car is considered small, gas is cheap and there is no such thing as a 1 litre car, 50 bhp car.

V6, V8, doesn't matter. Still beats a 4 cylinder diesel!
