A Euro is a car that has not been dumbed down for the American market with less power (on the 928S models), more lights (side markers), worse hedlights (H5 instead of H4), and all kinds of "bing-bing-bing" warnings and warning labels that prevent the manufacturer from getting sued.

I guess I lack taste. This car is actually a classic in some ways. I'm thinking it would be a great addition to JE's collection, or at Sharktoberfest etc ... I like the old '70's style "flair". CLEARLY this owner is a fanatic, and at least knows about checkerboard interior ...

Right on. That paint (completed) would be perfect for a track car.

The seller's put more money into that paint job than his landscaping.

Yeah, put some numbers on it, a few stickers, sprinkle a roll cage or bar and suddenly the outrageous design looks more than acceptable for the track. For a pure street car, though, it's wacky.
