thanks for the comment and i know that my car wont be to everyone's taste, from looking at your car it seems you are more focused on power and handling which is the total opposite for me.
It is differences in taste like the above that make the car 'modification' scene so varied and shows that sometimes you cant really please anyone
And before any one jumps in my car is not 'euro' its not 'cleaned' or any other cliche you can think of, it's mine

Just saying, im not a fan of the small wheels and stretched tyres look...but i agree with the 'each to their own' saying.
Does it not scrape over speed bumps!?

yeh man should be good, if road trip films are anything to go by, youll get lost, beaten,put in jail,find some random strippers that tag along, fall in love,get your wallet nicked and return home broke!
but joking aside, i really wish i was coming along too, should be a great time over there.
