European only car show pic's, Folsom CA, 06/23/13

EuroSunday is a once a month informal gathering of Internet-invitation only European cars though a few exotic American and Japanese cars are allowed too.

I decided to arrive in my new '13 BMW M sport 535i and show it along with the other vehicles, yesterday; here are some of the pic's I took. I am guessing about 100 cars total were there. This is the biggest such EuroSunday gathering I'd ever seen

Not to take anything away from your new ride and I know it's standing between a Delorean and a MG, but the first picture shows just how bloated new car designs have become these days. Even a 500SEC looks subtle in comparison.
And the DB9 is just perfect, another great design by Henrik Fisker and Ian Callum.

In the picture with the VW bug. What is the car that is to the right of the BMW behind the Lotus?

Tom's 1991 560SEC is still gorgeous, iconic after 22 years on the road. I would never give mine up

I heard someone at the event say this model is the cheapest Ferrari you can buy.





a V12 S Class Renntech! "Go big or go home!" Hartmut Feyhl, the founder and owner of Renntech, was the head of the North American AMG operations back in the 1980s and Renntech mods are very very good and very VERY expensive.
