Where's all the Euro owners?

This is the platform I chose, a 2002 (or D2(chassis) as we call it) S8. The only things I have done to this car is upgraded my interior lights to white LEDs and a K&N filter. I also got FK Silverline Coilovers flying in direct from Germany and 20x8.5F/20x10R wheels being forged at the DPE facility as you read this post. Took me a few months to start this build, mostly because I am very anal about what I want on my car. I know this site is dominated by the Japanese Import big body cars. I wanna see some euro builds, I know there are a handful of you here. Here's a pic of my car as of right now. cheers!:wave:

Yeah, the D3s are hella nice, but I'm partial to the D2 platform. Here's a D3 S8 that rolled in when I was getting my car serviced.

That's awsome. Well I came from a B5 S4. I had to get rid of it because of motor problems. I found out from the techs that the previous owner thrashed the car, which in turn ended in a bent valve. Then I saw the D2 sitting in the lot and I just had to have it. If I have any questions, you will definetly be getting PMs from me. Thanks!
