Here is the timelapse I was talking about, from Portofino Italy to Monaco. Some of the best cliffside roads I've ever been on.

Interestingly enough, I was in a restricted area of the Port of Tacoma today, right outside the US customs office, for work. What did I see but two very nice looking late model tourings, one red, and one blue, in the process of being loaded out. Truck driver said all he could tell me was they were going to Redmond Washington. Anyone?

Redmond, wonder who two. That is pretty cool to see more of them.

I'm editing a cool video related to this trip, timelapse from Portofino to Monaco.

My touring should be arriving in a month or so.

^^ pay me lots of monies to find it, pick it up, get it plated, make a ton of calls.
actually it isn't that hard(if you know a bit of German)- just very time consuming, and it would be impossible to register without a German bank account.

+1 teach us how we can all have delightful tourings in the states.

James, please give us lessons learned on the whole purchase/shipping/import process when you have time. My wife would love to have a touring.

Simply awesome that I made it through the entire thread right before my wife said dinner was ready.

Have a safe trip home

It was nice to meet you two.....So cool that the touring completed it's mission and it's on the way home. I think I'll mount the rusty tailgate to the wall as a memento...


Damn diesel still won't run, but no worries....Mike is just a phone call away

Quick update, we have quite a few photos yet to post, more stories, etc, just have not had the time to upload everything. Car has been dropped off to the Shipper and should be in Washington state in a month or so. We leave Germany tomorrow morning (4am, yikes) and will be back in Seattle.

Getting back, driving home, taking a shower, and driving straight to the racetrack as we are running the R3VLimited Pro3 car in the Ridge 6 hour enduro..

More to come once I settle back home.
