Ohhhh, you meant garbage. Well, the one at Polk had a bunch of dirt bags; so, I doubt it'll be anything worse. At least it's new and jammed full of snap-on tools and an in-ground alignment rack, so I'm happy.


Mmmmm, I can't wait until a motherfucker tries to tell me I can do something in there....

car scene is strong bro, but, its mostly about domestic cars. you'll come across some japanese imports, but nothing too crazy; if they are, american's own them. its expensive to own a car and modify it here. you're looking at about 8-9,000 euros for a good R33, and thats just a gts-t. the TUV is ridiculous. hell, koukis start at about 6,000 euro stock.

love the autobahn though. Germans overall are agressive drivers, but they're good drivers(most). doing 130mph on the autobahn and still getting passed by fucking turbo diesel audi wagons getting twice the gas mileage; hate that shit.

but, you should to bring a S13 with you and sell it to me; or an s14. i'm not bucking up $3500+ for a stock euro spec s13 w/ a ca18 and 250tkm

Jap cars are cheap, not JDM imports. Problem with importing RHD is that they have to get the approval paperwork, then have LHD mods done like correcting the headlight beams (~2000euros). Being military, you dont have to worry as long as it conforms to the USEURA inspection. Guy locally is selling an evo VI tommy makanien(Sp?) For 5k euro, so that's an awsome deal.

Yes modded cars are allowed, it like I said....it's expensive, VAT is like 19%

The 316/318/320 models are cheap. Expect to pay up for an e36 w/ a 2.5 or a 2.8. They also go crazy for older bmws and mercs; just gotta look for deals.

Seriously though, bring a 240, I'll buy it haha.
