As some of you may have picked up from a few of my recent posts, my TTS along with myself and my girlfriend will be heading to Europe this summer. We will be in many different cities along the way. I will post photos as time allows but it will be a lot of moving around.

So far the car has had a fresh service at Gulf Performance in Pompano Beach. Then it was off to have a Venture Shield clear bra installed. I will be putting the car in its container along with a close friends GTR on Monday morning...

A trip of a lifetime I guess !
And the ideal car to do it with.

If you happen to spent some time in Belgium you are more than welcome to stop by !

French cops will love you if you make even a pathetic attempt to speak French.

When I was 19 going to college in Grenoble a CRS - the meanest type of French motorcycle cop - pulled me over for a muddy license plate on my motorcycle. I told him in my heavily accented French that in the US the law says if a cop wants to read your plate he has to clean it off himself. He was speechless. I was stupid. Could have gone to jail right there, but he let me off.

Anyway, have fun and be safe.

I am curious about the logistics and paperwork of sending a US car to Europe. I see you already have the requisite fire extinguisher.
