We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works

the 85 is a euro, with euro lights (low class model round eye ones) and euro bumper, and no factory a/c... nice find. fixed up, it's worth the most I'd think. but it needs a lot of TLC to be sure...

oh, and I've got a full set sanden bolt in aftermarket a/c to go in there if someone on this site buys the 85...

Those are definitely just clear fogs on US lights.

If they were Euro lights they'd have a different pattern on the fogs and there would be no difference in the surface from the headlight and fog.

I guess you are right, also, I think the euro lights have larger reflectors, and there is no metal eyebrow right? I'll have to check one of my sets of them. I've got two sets in my kitchen at my house...
the car is a euro though.

A euro with a turbo? Didn't euros come with NA engines?
