Coming To Germany!

Hey everyone, I will be coming to Dusseldorf Germany for a trade show in October and just wanted to know if there was anything going on in the Mitsubishi sceene that month. In Canada it is a really great scene with lots of events and I just wanted to get an International feeling of how other clubs are while I'm there, Keep me posted.
Thanks
Danno

Nope... Germans like their BMWs and Porsches.
Not a big Mitsubishi scene out there, i guess.

I' ve even heard stories that you are frowned upon if you drive your Japanese car on the autobahn.

Since, my entire family lives in Wuppertal (10 min. away) I can tell you that you won't find another Lancer, Evo or Eclipse!!! The car scene in Germany is in the south and you will be right in the middle/west (1/2 hour to Holland)!!!
However, you will have fun on the Autobahn and on the Landstrassen!!!! I can recomend the Hockenheimring and Nuernburgring if you want to drive circuit.
Hope this helps a little bit.

Tip: Don't drive faster than 50km/h in cities, don't drive faster than 80km/h on Landstrassen (streets that go thru forrest) because they have hidden lasers all over the place. They have lasers that look like trash cans also!!!!

i've been living in France for the past 3 weeks and i have only seen 3 other mitsu's here. one was a 2nd gen eclipse non-turbo, one was the L200 pickup and i have no idea what the other was, but it was smaller than our lancers by quite a bit and also it appeared to be a hatchback. i only saw it while on the tram so i couldn't see too much. that's the extent of the "mitsu scene" here in France and probably most of europe. i have also ventured a little into Germany since i basically live 3km from the border.

evo 7

A couple of years ago, digitech's Evo 7 won the tuner shootout (sedan class)in Hockenheim; just edged MTM's RS4.

They're very aware of it/them
