A well respected british auto journal Top Gear did an introductory video about our new Mustang. Being myself a mustang fan I love this video, regardless that they made fun of the car at times. In the end even British fell in love with a mustang.
I think this is a high quality entertaining video. A lil'bit sarcastic, but I liked it.
 
What amazed me is the quality of this video. Everything is well set-up like filming, sound clips and at the same time car history, technical data and humor. All their videos are nice. I wished we had such a tv-car show.
If you want more of them go to google search videos and type "top gear"
Normally they test high end cars like Ferrari, Porsche, etc. Maybe that's why the guy complains of only 300hp out of 4.6 liters. But at the end he makes a good point about mustang: the car is not made to compete with mega bucks sports cars, in the end it's an affordable muscle car.
I only wish the stock mustang was lowered 1 inch and had wider tires in the back. It would looked so much better against that European econo-box.
 
Yeah, I love that show.
They used to show it on Wednesdays on the Discovery Channel. Hopefully it comes back next season.
The thing that always blows me away is the prices. Everything costs twice as much there for the same car. Not to mention $6 per galon gas (petrol) and you can understand why they drive small econoboxes.
They even tax the heck out of you depending on your engine displacement.
Just lucky to be in the US...
