Default a little update on mr.euro

so hows everything been guys? for me its been a hell of a winter. LS400 got totaled, not bothering to fix it since its not "worth it" in my mind. getting out of the whole VIP style scene, i found it way too bland and boring for me, instead i bought myself a 1995 BMW 525i touring(wagon), planning on building the motor, 5spd swap, and turbo. i'll eventually get back into a lexus maybe later on once i'm a bit more settled down since i plan on going into Dept of Homeland Security as a U.S. customs and border patrol agent and possibly inheriting a house from my parents in 2-3 years. for now i'm mr.euro again literally, and hope to see some of you guys around soon.

eh, lesson learned. not the biggest deal in the world. a little sore about it, but it was time for a new project. to be honest, i for one can't find myself in a big luxury sedan. i'd rather have something manual, preferrably boosted and still reliable in the same matter. precisely why i picked a 525i, i know the ins and outs of the M50 BMW motor and definatly turbo and building the motor is something thats easily done. i'll still be around, definatly i'll come through to the meets and hang with you guys.
