Hey Folks.

During my research for nice car pics I found this great community. The selection of member-cars is awesome.

My ride is not badass, but maybe you’re interested in what these germans are driving.

> **Facts**  
> 2006 Ford Fusion  
> incredible 80HP / 98 cui  
> 2645 pounds  
> 17/7 ATS-Wheels with 205/40 Tires

I’m not sure to put that thing on the ground, or to fit offroad suspension on it. What do you think? Or maybe keeping the money and buy a proper ride? 😃

Pictures worth more than words.

I’m thinking your fusions are a bit different than ours.

Yeah the US Fusion is a totally different car. the european one is not more than a little bit bigger compact car.

in germany the tdci cars have not that good reputation. they are mostly driven by businessmen or people who want to save fuel. everyone thinks tdci are slower than regular gas cars. but I think thats just not true. these things are more durable than everything. and you can save money because diesel is cheaper than regular gas. we have to pay up to $6.5 per gallon for regular, 5.5 diesel.

no it’s build relatively high. it’s like a higher ford fiesta. higher sitting position gives a bit better view.

Their shop is 20 miles away, on the other end of berlin.  
I drove their once to see how the shop looks, but I think this garage is not my financiell class.  
I’ve seen all the special germany episodes from “streetcustoms”, with the guys from wcc. they build cars which are nearly as exiting as in the states. but they always struggle with the german MOT which is very hard.

MOT… thats such a stupid thing in germany. you need a technical component report for every part you put on your ride. even for eyebrows for your headlights. if a single document for additional parts is missing, the police gives you a sheet of paper. with this thing you have to go to the MOT again, and they say if your customization is legal or not. if the police thinks your ride is illegal they keep it and bring it theirselves to the mot. your ride is marked illegal fast. the ride has to be that high, that you can drive over an erect box of cigarettes. your tires are not allowed to stand out of the wheel wells. you’re not allowed to put neon under your car. your exhaust is not allowed to be louder than 85db.
