OK....I don't have pics of my 1976 BMW 2002, but it had 15" Hartge rims, recaro bucket seats, alpine stereo, momo steering wheel and shift ****. Then was my 1987 Saab 900 Turbo convertible....SPG wheels and lowered. Then came this...The first Rover...95 4.0SE, 18" chrome Hurricane wheels...


Then the 97 Boxster Eibach springs, Litronics, 996 Bumper, Techart Exhaust



Then the 2003 Rover....mod free....

And the 996.... 99 C4 Cab...still modding....lol

It was AWESOME! The 325hp stock V8 sound was great...you can really feel and hear that power under the hood (front engine) even when idling. The power really kicks in when you hit the 75-80mph range...then it just wants you to keep pushing it. I didn't do any mods on it except upgrading the wheels.

Small problems started to bother me: windshield leaked when it rained, ac crapped out, transmission started to leak really bad, it wouldn't start unless you stomp on the gas, etc... So I sold it and got the Boxster.

I can't find pics of my first euros but I started with a 1999 CLK55 bone stock. I also had a 2000 740i sport.

From there I traded the CLK for a 2000 996 C4. This car had aerokit, 18" Techart Daytonas, Gemballa engine mods, H&R coilovers, painted interior pieces and Techart trimmings here and there.



I traded the 740 for a 2000 M5. It was a full Dinan S2 conversion. Everything else was stock (wheels, audio, etc.).
