Yes very good point, bmws and benzs are regular cars there. And when you really look into it, the bimmer 3 series is just a really expensive honda civic thats put together better in terms of fit and finish. The cars are both considered compacts. Lucky them for that, but it gives the cars a better look over here. I guess you must have to drive a bently to look weathly there.

LOL, that is a good selection of the French/Belgium tuning style.
The more you go to the north in Europe, the better the cars are modded.

Take mine for instance

Nothing rice about these cars.

That's just how a good number of Europeans choose to modify their cars.

As much as BMW and MBs are common in Europe, they are still different from what we're getting here. A great majority of 3 series and MB E class I've seen in Europe have the least number of options, smallest engines (a good number of them, diesel), and are basically the stripped down version of their U.S. counter parts.

You're always one step ahead of me.

Default lexus rice?

I'm not sure I consider this rice, some might. It is expressive Just shows that Europe thinks differently about modding. Actually, there are probably some people in the States who would do this.
