A Mustang in the border area
Along the former border - with the brand new Ford Mustang from Bavaria to the Baltic Sea. Time Travel with a modern Ponycar.
History meets history.
Here the faded set pieces of a once-divided country, where the highly polished sixth edition of an icon. A Yank in Germany: the new Mustang in the footsteps of beetles and record of Trabant and Wartburg.
No jaunt to the next turnpike and back. But a four-day trip to Bavaria to the Baltic Sea 1378 km away. A journey full of contradictions, a trip through eras, a long trip through the vast land.
Time endless avenues, large picture with small villages. Car Wash 3.95 €, a € Wurstsemmel. Then again urban close, agitation until late at night, hotels almost priceless, the gin and tonic as expensive as just another bottle of champagne Red Riding Hood. The Mustang is a foreign body, both here. More retro than a five-liter naturally aspirated V8 is hardly more than 16.1 liters on average thirst not. Decadent? Yes, if since the cost would be prohibitive. For 42,500 Euro's the iron horse from Detroit including saddle and bridle, brushed and groomed, ready for the Military Marathon along the former border zone. When refueling in Nuremberg get only connoisseurs have long necks, during a pit stop in Plauen surround in an instant two dozen people from the sweaty muscle man. In the stronghold of Dacia and Skoda buck this is an event almost as long as the former Squad carts of Citroen and Volvo. Please revving the engine correctly give gum when starting, across the roundabout! Broad smile is contagious, honestly.
This car is an evolution of himself: sometimes stubborn and supple again, now a rollercoaster between sovereign and stressed out, sometimes simultaneously overpowered and underdamped. The test car no smug machine, but a manual switch works. The aluminum knob hits with verve through the streets, snaps cleanly and can lead playful. But unfortunately, the transmission is translated too long. The peak of 250 km / h is reached in the fifth. The Sixth wants to be a more fuel-efficient gentle cycle, forces on the highway but always want to return. Because torque peak (4250 / min) and rated speed are (6500 / min) separated only by narrow tours in 2250, the 524 Nm in top gear collect often delayed. The statistics of the GDR border security is a compendium of Secrets: 900 underground bunkers, 665 watchtowers, 808 km barrier trenches 996 dog runs, plus minefields, automatic shooting machines, touch-sensitive signal fences. Along the entire border demarcation museums and memorials to remember this dark era. Even 25 years after the fall of the wall testify wide green lanes of the divided Republic.
This Mustang is not a black and white painting more, can only begin to override or going under control animal. Instead, the engineers have brought light into the broad gray area between the extremes and designed a performance package for Europe. The no-cost gift basket includes thicker anti-roll bars behind, stiffer springs and dampers, connected to said front wall brace and improved cooling.
We drive right across the vast land to the checkpoint Marie Born. Is on the way, such as practical, the traditional track Schleizer triangle, where the jockey must give the whole blood really spurs on the restricted sections. Although it comes at the cost of 19-inch winter tires, but the Ford clings so supple to the vertices, as if he had trained all his life only for the Drift Challenge., as if he had trained all his life only for the Drift Challenge. Weaknesses? The suspension is on uneven turf times brittle-leggy and then again doughy-wobbly, stability would we call nonchalant, the driving program selector confused with an off-setting - Bronco okay, Mustang rather not. Marie Born acts like a ghostly goosebumps flashback in their own youth when we flocked with mandatory exchange-Ostmark through no man's land to Berlin. The pony car they all hooked from that history-oriented stations of the approach, the Brandenburg Gate, Checkpoint Charlie to Glienicke Bridge. However, the city is a course on which shuns our Mustang and strange: no outlet, no parking, no large boulevards. Therefore, we control for the last time at the trough, and set course for Priwall on the Baltic Sea.
This is a Mustang from the touch-screen navigation system. This is part of the new infotainment package, the best that Ford has ever built. The same applies for the Mustang. It offers a lot of car for the money, a full roar of the American way of driving and lots of fun driving at the limit.
Specifications Ford Mustang 5.0 V8 engine TI VCT V8, longitudinally front • Displacement 4951 cc power 308 kW • (418 hp) at 6500 / min • max. Torque 524 Nm at 4250 / min peak 250 km / h • 0-100 km / h k. A. • Drive Rear / six-speed gearbox tank 61 l • L / W / H 4784/1916/1381 mm Wheelbase 2720 mm • • Trunk 408 l • curb weight 1720 kg • EU mix 13.5 l S / 100 km • CO2 emission 299 g / km • Price from 40.000 €.
Conclusion
So much car for so little money! Rarely a car has so much impressed me like the new Ford Mustang, which is available with V8 already for 40,000 euros. With the iconic Ami whole new extreme experiences are possible - not only at the explosion limit.
