The world isn't the safe place is was when I travelled as a kid.

D34DC311, you want to taste some REAL beer? (muhahaah) next time you are at your local corner store why dont you pick up a bottle of SAINT IDES.
THAT is real beer.
THAT is real beer.
Yes I will definately be careful. I would like to drive on the Autobahn tho' people are actually polite on the roads over here. IE no one hangs in the left lane going 70mph hour. They are only in the left lane to pass. Seen a few BMWs, Benz's, Audis and street bikes doin well over 120MPH. Something I also noticed was that the JDM titeness craze is alive and well here too as I saw a few civic hatches with aluminum wings and dual,square tipped cans. The food i had last night was good, steak with fried onions on top with auJus sauce. Very heavy on the salt tho. But good none-the-less. I'm not sure what our intierary is as far as touring but I'm sure we'll see some cool crap. I'm also keeping a video diary too...for posterity and something to make sarcastic remarks at about others in my traveling party(family). haha Thanks guys!
PS I'm looking out for any german Supras even though I'm sure they are pretty rare.

I'll try to find some... My german isn't that good so I don't think I'll be very successful. On another note we were driving through the mountains yesterday(saturday), Out in the Black Forest area and I look over and see piles and piles of wheels. Take a closer look at the warehouse and turns out it was the BBS wheel factory. That was just a random-by-chance happening cause no one else in my family gives 2 poos about cars. Anyhoo I didn't get any pictures or video but it was still pretty cool.
Well this was my last full day in Germany. We get on the plane for home at 1:15pm tomorrow. The "cool-car-count" was:
999999999999999+ Porsche 911's and Carreras.
1 Lotus Esprit
1 Lambo Gallardo
3 Lambo Murciolago*sp*
3 Ferrari 360 Modena
1 Ferrari Tesstarossa
And the best one of all(IMO)
1 Porsche Carrera GT
Also worth mention was the buttload of awesome bikes I saw. They're freaking crazy on the autobahn over here.
As far as the Countries and regions I was in, ranked in order of best to worst:
1 Austria
2 Bavaria
3 The rest of Germany
4 A little bit of France (Straussbourg)
I will see some of you back in the good ole US of A! Later

damn, I should've seen this thread earlier....
there are actually about 5-6 MKIIIs near Stuttgart that I know of, I myself am about 200km south of Stuttgart. next time you come over here we can do some 150+ mph runs on the autobahn with the Supra and kick the Benz's and BMW's asses j/k
maybe you'll get to see some Supras next time, since as I said in the PM, we could arrange a small "intercontinental" supra owners meet (probably be the first one ever?)
Lanky: Switzerland really is very nice, I'm living 20km from the swiss border and have a few Supra-addicted friends over there. gotta love that country.

i would be in for an intercontinintal(sp?) car meet, just i could bring pics no car, cost like .50 cents a pound X 3500lbs and u get a grand total of car would make it but i would have no cash to get over there. or i could hide in the car with food. ahh im thinkin now. yea
then ill live over there for a while.
ok im in.
