bronch · 11-02-2014, 08:18 PM

I enjoyed your pics and write up, considering your route, hotels and restaurants you must've had a great time. I like the color combo of your car too. I would really like to do ED some day.

STooK · 11-02-2014, 09:14 PM

Thank you for the detailed post! Really like your F83 and hope to do ED one day eventually!!

JSCO · 11-02-2014, 09:36 PM

Seanmag · 11-04-2014, 12:00 PM

Sweet ride - love the contrasting paint and leather. Thank you for sharing your ED photos!

Gstone · 11-04-2014, 12:42 PM

You have inspired me to do ED next time.
If not, I definitely need to get to Belgium.

Fantastic pics. This will be me and my wife in two weeks!

Truly awesome pics and thanks so much for doing this. I love this forum....

I can't wait until ED next summer, looks like a blast. Maybe you've answered this but how long did you stay and how much was the whole trip including airfare ?

stayed 2 weeks ... as to cost I don't know (not my dept), but depending on points you might have and how much you wanna spend on hotels, etc I'd plan on $5k

How was the luggage situation with that tiny trunk?

EndBosS · 11-08-2014, 07:59 AM

No problems at all. The trunk is pretty roomy with the top up, with it down for extra space we just use the back seat.

For daily use, its fits 4 wheels which is about the most large cargo i ever carry. If i need more room i just rent a van from home depot or uhaul for $20

Trip looked amazing! I stopped in a lot of the cities that you were in when I was there this past summer at Monaco F1. Your photographs captured everything very well. Still upset I had to miss out on the northern part of Europe I really wanted to see Belgium but your pics made up for it!

The car looks fantastic btw Moonstone is definitely a jaw dropping color in person.

Awesome, thanks - do you have a thread or pics of your F1 trip? That must've been epic! I'd love to do that - any tips on battling the crowds, etc?

2ndlife · 11-10-2014, 12:27 AM

Nice pictures and nice color choice! Moonstone is beautiful!
Why did you erase the Euro Plate numbers in every picture?
I can understand Cali plate should be blocked off but can anyone easily trace
you through the Euro plate?

European authorities / people can - slim risk, but why make it easy ... there were a number of incidents

Vectors2final · 11-10-2014, 03:51 AM

Nice pics, nice trip! Good looking vert....

OneRib · 03-03-2015, 08:43 PM

Can't believe I missed this thread. Great picks and looks like a fantastic variety of sights over 2 weeks.

Making me rethink going south and missing out on Belgium.

By the way how many and which languages do you speak?

3er · 03-03-2015, 09:03 PM

I'm also ashamed that I missed this thread - wow - a job well done. I really enjoyed the photos and story! Keep 'em coming!

Upbeats · 03-03-2015, 09:17 PM

Curious to how much miles from 1 did the beautiful M4 rack up the whole European trip?

Dimitri · 03-03-2015, 09:29 PM

Great post and awesome pictures. I love your color combo!

Rick955 · 03-03-2015, 09:39 PM

Great pics, GG. I can't get enough of these photo threads!!
