I just can't belive it. It was in the opposing direction to mine, so no pics, but it was glorious. At first I was like, oh cool the new Mondeo, because I haven't seen one with the Aston grille, but then it hit me, with all of its awesomeness, that this is the new Mustang.

The front is indentical to the US version or at least I didn't see any difference, and the back is like the one in the picture, but with 2 red and one translucent rear lights, it was also white. The reason why I am so excited is because I live in Bulgaria(the poorest country in the EU) and they have a test model for some reason here.

The first 500 cars for Yurop sold for just 30 seconds and over 9000(hehehe) people battled for them.

Ford looks to be pretty serious to bring the global Mustang here, with ads replacing the dreadful Kuga in the Champions League and the whole Road Awaits campaign.

We don' know pricing yet, but !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! we commented that a 35k Euro($47k) starting price will be a very good option and it doesn't have any alternative. The BRZ is at around 30+k Euro and the Mustang will have much more power. The problem is that I have a bad feeling it will be at least 45k($61k) and things will get ugly, becuase in Europe not a lot of people are ready to pay such money for 'Merican car, stereotypes and all.

Wow, 9000 people battling over those initial Mustangs? That's awesome, I'm glad the demand IS there! I'm really excited to start seeing it on the roads in the Netherlands when I visit my Mom next.

The fucktards in the Alfa importer can't give me a price for a 4C a year after it released, so even in Europe we can have Alfa problems. They say not enough interest to import one to here. I am ready to throw money at them if they don't have a huge markup on it in 1-2 years.

Now I am really looking at the Mustang, if the Euro price is reasonable I will definitely go for one.

Yeah I read your post and some days later I see one in the flesh, pretty cool. The only difference from your pic was that it had the Mustang logo not the GT badge.

And in France you will have to do with a 8000€ malus on top of the price... assuming it's like the Camaro.

I wouldn't expect Bulgaria at all. Pretty cool stuff.

What is the price of the Camaro in France, here in Bulgaria it starts at 39 000 Euro with the V8 and manual?

The problem of having mandatory VAT and other stupid taxes.

43 for the coupé (without the malus) and 48 for the roadster.

Somebody in the area of Granby, CT drives a late 90s Alfa Spider. I've seen it twice now. Blows my mind, because HOW?!

Ouch, that is a 428i territory there and even with a V8, we Europeans will not get it, which is sad. I looked to get a used V6 Camaro , but most people here on Oppo said it is not a very good idea.

$47,000? Damn! You don't want to know how little they cost here.

I know, I know, I just accept that we in Europe are screwed when it comes to prices.
