Welcome to the USA and US muscle cars. Nice Mustang! I like Euro muscle cars, but they seem to break very frequently. Had a VERY good friend with a Ferrari. He could NOT visit the dealership for less than $5,000! All my friends with BMWs love them, but pay dearly for their fun. Same with Audis ... expensive for the care and feeding. Have one friend with an Audi R8. He loves everything but the cost of keeping it running.

I bet a McClaren isn't cheap to maintain, either. The supercars that are made from semi Formula 1 parts have to be a nightmare. Formula 1 engines are designed to last for 2 races and then be replaced.

At least your Mustang should be decently reliable, depending on how you drive it.

Are there any muscle cars in Russia? If so, please let us know so we can look them up and enjoy them. I have some experience with former Soviet Military equipment and most are very rugged, designed to be used in harsh weather and take everyday pounding. If they would turn that creativity to cars, who knows? Perhaps YOU do.

Cheers to you.
