Re: euro EM2

looks good man. black out the headlights, rock some aero side skirts/front under and rear under spoiler, upgrade to HIDS, smoke the tails (if you want)..then it will all come together.

and congrats on being the first (i'm thinkin') em2 owner to have a set of Eibach Pro S Coilovers...i was plannin on being the first one with them, but have to save my funds for a house. Looks good man. keep it up!

yeah, its euro version, stock goes with folding mirrors, side markers, rear fog light.

There were just 2 types of EM2 in EU: LS D17A8 & ES D17A9; LS being US LX with EX header (that's where extra 5hp comes from), and ES being literally EX with some minor engine differences.

Plus they've always been stock equipped with A/C, ABS, RPM & power windows which i know is not always the case with USDM EM2s.

Re: euro EM2

So is that gas or diesel? Looks really good. Black is hard not to scratch. I was in Romania recently, and it was an interesting experience how all the cars were diesel and stick shift.

yeah even if it looks cool in pics I do need to polish the car.

That's not diesel, there was no diesel EM2s, the only different fuel was a USDM HX CNG version

All EUDM EM2s were stick shift & you're right it's typical for EU.

but it's true there's so many diesels in EU; even Jag has some, Rolls is thinkin and BMW is working on M Diesel at the moment.
