Is that a retention berm (dyke / levee) the cars are next to?
Yeah, we went to the waterway where some big catamaran ship lands and does a 3 point turn.
Pretty impressive for a ship that big.

You are correct on the dyke.

just curious, what's the difference between US spec and euro spec gs300? and it's very easy to get US spec to be registered over tehre?
Difference (from the top of my head):

Antenna in the rear window on US, power antenna on right rear fender for euro.
Side markers on US, fender blinkers on Euro.
Different radio.
Different headlights (I think).

Richie, I am disappointed in you.....what about the headlight "squirters"?

Congrats on the meet!

Nice job Richie...thanks for the pic! The two weeks I spent around Best NL, I don't remeber seeing a Lexus...all small cars. I'm sure it must have been tuff to get a meet together.

Now where's those nice blonde Dutch babes...

This was a few year back bro...before my Lexus days. The company I worked for in Peabody MA at the time was partnered with Philips Medical (Best). I was only there a few weeks..stayed at a hotel in Tilburg and drove to Amsterdam almost every day after work. Early April time and I tell ya...what a lovely country that Holland.
