Default New from ITALY!

Ciao guys!

I'm Michele, 26,from Italy, near Milan!

I'm so happy to be there!

I read this forum from some months after I decided to buy a Mustang!

At the and of the last year I bought a 2006 Mustang GT in Tunghsten Grey and premium package and it's amazing!

Having a Mustang or american car in Italy it's very hard because they're very expensive with import and the gas here it's very, very expensive almost 3 times than in USA!!

Anyway I decided to make my dream true...I love american car since I was a kid and Ialways tried to find a good car for me in Italy...

At the beginning I was looking for a '69 Mustang but they're really hard to find here and with really high pricing and hard to find parts...

So one day I decided to take the s197 beacause since I saw her in 2004 I promised to myself that one day she has to be mine!

Consider that here a used Mustang GT costs something like 40000$!!!!

Ok, see you soon on the forum!

Thank you!

Grazie ragazzi!

HI!

Yes, more precisely the current Italian gas price with Eu/$ is something about 7.9$ per gallon!!

And yes, it's Mustang dedication!

For us, Italian and European American cars enthusiast, driving an American legend like the Mustang is something that change our life!

For me it's a really big dream because Mustangs are so rare here! I think that here there are only a few houndred of those cars!

Being inside of a Mustang, driving her, feeling the American dream it's so amazing!!

For me it's not a car, it's a piece of art!

Well, I'm also an American culture enthusiast beacause I love your cars, your music, your country, your art and many things in you way of life! (and your junk food!)

Just yestarday I tattoed the "V8" ford logo on my arm!

Ok, I've to go, it's lunch time here!

See you soon!

Hi!

Saturday morning I have to go to put the stripes on my 'stang and sunday I'll mount the hood pins and after I'll do some good pics!

For now I have one pic done the day I took the car from the dealer, I'm looking for a "how to" post pics!

For the tatto I'll post you it when all the arm will be finished.

Right today a parcel from USA arrived to me with many t-shirts and accessories, everything inspired by american cars! I'm so happy!

See you soon!
