I started it, but it is not MY thread Trip! You are welcome to post here anytime you like! I know you will find "your" car...just might take some time. They are out there!!!

On a EURO85 note...car ran GREAT TODAY! Went out to my FAV BBQ place in Taylor, TX (Louie Muellers BBQ) and parked where I could see the car... Man does this bad boy turn heads!!! People go out of their way to look at this car! AMAZING! NONE of my other cars do that! The '94 GTS (in Grand Prix White) is probably the next closest on that front! Even BLUE82 (though it is hard to say as it gets out so rarely) does not attract the kind of attention from the public at large as EURO85 does!

Drove over to one of my fav places to eat (Freebirds) and the car turned over 102,000 miles on the way...took these pics.

This food REALLY makes me miss home. Next you're gonna say y'all are having a gathering at the Salt Lick.

You know we have a Salt Lick in Round Rock now right? I am not sure it was here before you left the area! Over in the Dell Diamond parking lot. I am not a HUGE Salt Lick fan I have to say, but it is closer than LM's... Also not a HUGE Chinese food fan either, though EURO85 got LOTS OF LOVE at P.F. Changs a few weeks ago while I was having lunch with the woman in my avatar!

Took EURO85 to dinner tonight and DAMN did it run great! Hammer the loud pedal and it would down shift to 2nd and TAKE OFF! Pulling REALLY strong from 4500 on up to 6k+ before shifting! OH YEA!!! This car gets better every damn time it is driven!!! Looking better all the time too! Gotta love it!

Here is an update...

Put a Perfex Manufacturing splitter on the car tonight! Took a bit of time and fiddling to get it installed (just ask Jim Willman, my personal master mechanic) but we got it in place! I had this one wrapped in CF vinyl just to make it look fun!!!

This has continued the theme of subtlety with EURO85. The car is really a wall flower among cars, you hardly even notice it! LOL!

Took EURO85 out for a quick bite of lunch and got ALL kinds of love in it! Needed to settle the front end since we had it up in the air for the splitter install (Oh, also put in the fender liner, thanks Mark B of The 9 Source for the great deal on that!) and have it looking good for photo shoots tomorrow and Sunday!

Car is running better all the time and just gets all the love!

Bunch of compliments on the car today while out at dinner! LOVE IT! A few folks even stopped to take pics of it! AMAZING car actually!

This is a shot from my friend Howard! Great work! Might see this shot in the 2012 928 calendar "High Heels & Hot Wheels"!

This car continues to run better each time it is taken out and run hard! I am going to put a different muffler on it. Probably keep the single tip (prefer that it be oval though...so might look in to that) but it will sound much better with a Flowmaster on it. In fact it ought to sound JUST LIKE my race car with a Flowmaster on it, because it is the same exhaust on the same 4.7L engine as the racer!

Damn. That car has got some serious attention going on.

James, you need to be supplying some pascha bikinis to these models.

James: that's a beautiful euro-S, wish mine looked half as nice, great wheels too! I always avoided red cars but got to like the color red very much since I have one now. Got clocked at 95mph last Sunday in my blue euro-s, but nice cop, could have been much worse! Tomorrow I get my 80 Euro-S auto with pasha checkerboard interior, hoping for the best. So now I only have to buy 5 more to catch up to you!Bill
