It seems very few people outside the US really have tuneable cars. Most are on diesel and that also 520's. So for exterior mods, there's no problem, but outside of a sprint boost, is there really anything worth the money to improve the performance?

That being said, it just seems that people on this board in Europe have non-modded cars. I'm sure the 540 or whatever they have in Europe that's the top of the line model, has owners that mod them.

Ummm, he was certainly excessive and added a source of humor here that has yet to be matched. However, AWG was the latest chromo. Thankfully, the helpful hand and wisdom of the forums helped her see the err of her ways. The pressure was too great, and the chromo too bright...
