And dammit do I want.

It's not the blue FiST, but this Mustang GT. He is a foreign exchange student, but that doesn't matter so much here. He's still an enthusiast.

Because, in the semester I lived with him, I learned how diverse the car world is and how it differs culturally. As an American and myself, I seemed to list after European cars, but my roommate from China was always looking at 'Murican cars, the Mustang especially.

(Manual and puffalump on the wheel)

He's partly the reason I know am more interested in American cars than I was before. And I'm very glad to have been his roommate by sheer luck. And even though we had our difficulties with some language barrier stuff and such, it was worth it. I'm more open minded because of it.

I'll have to ask him about it and see if I can get a ride some time.

If he speaks Cantonese, just call me up and I'll translate. I can also probably conduct some research. By experimenting... sideways.

Thanks. He spoke pretty good English, it was just sometimes his pronunciation would be off, and it'd take me a second to understand what he was saying. I'm sure he's improved a bit.

The grass is always greener on the other side. I'm always amused whenever I see Europeans post about how jealous they are of our big displacement muscle cars (especially their price) or how easily available and large our pickup trucks are.

Different perspectives can be quite funny.

There was a guy in my grad school class who had a Mustang GT and all the exchange students were crazy about it. I guess it's one of those cars they always hear stories about but never get to see.

The German girls in the class were always excited to go for a ride in his "Mooshtong."
