First test drive for 2002!!!

04-18-2002, 04:54 PM

The first test drive was tonight in Stockholm, Sweden. Where should I drive??? OK! To my brother.... He lives around 40 km from the city (out in the archipelago). After a few minutes I come to a stoplight. And a Volvo S-60 T5 (250hp) 50% of all new cars in sweden is a Volvo or a Saab. From 0-60mph I kick his as..... And you now after that I don´t race anymore. But it was a kill!!

What I want to say....

Now I understund why I have this car, its so nice to take a weekendtrip or a eveningtrip and looking for something to eat

I like my car very much and it´s still stock (close to).

Are there any other Mustangs in Sweden at all? I went to Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Chech Republic, Austria and Holland for about a month total in October and I didn't see one Mustang. I saw a few Corvettes and a v-6 camaro, and some cool older muscle cars, but no Mustangs! I did see a truck load of Ferrari 360 Modenos in Italy though, that was pretty cool.

Thats cool man, good job! Now they know where the real cars come from right

Kinda off the subject, sorry, but I was wondering how much did those 4:10's spice up the ride? Do you have an auto or 5-speed?

Thanks James

The gear give me a new car. I have a T5 and changed from 3:08 to 4:10... It´s fun in town but I think I need more power on the "open roads". I need more power att high rpm...
The car is only for late evening fun and weekendtrips, just for some redlight race. If I should drive more with the car I should go for 3:55 or 3:73.

Sweden is biggest in Europe on American Cars. Some reason it´s hard to find a Ford Pickup here. It´s probably Ford In sweden sometimes in the 80th.

The -79 to -93 is very hard to find here. The convertible is more easy to find.

And the cars from -94 to brand new... offcause the old -64 1/4 to -73.

I know 2!!!! Mustang -87 to -93 with compressor!!!!

Have a nice evening

Nice kill, joakim!

Been a while since you've posted much. Aren't you planning a trip to Arizona coming up pretty quick?
