Semi off-topic, but I was in Aviano Italy from 2004-2006 and I liked it. I had a 1995 Ford Escort Cosworth the majority of the time I was there, along with a Ducati 996 motorcycle. We would also go on drives from Italy to Germany and into the Kaiserslautern area on long weekends. I miss the roads there, we've got some nice mountain roads here in Japan, but it's nothing like driving through the Italian Alps and Austria. Maybe one day I'll go back to Europe.

How long does it take to get your car once it's shipped?

I dunno about Honda, but many banks won't let the car leave the US. If that's the case, call up USAA and refinance with them. I know quite a few people who did it that way.

Honda will allow you to keep your loan when going to germany.

Yeah I'm 100% sure. When you call American Honda, there is a little part that says "If you plan on taking your car overseas press 3"

You should be able to get all of that shipped to your APO address for fairly cheap. I ship exhausts and stuff to people all the time for $50-$75, works the same both ways.

Oh ok, I just figured since this was a thread about Military Si drivers in Germany that he might have been one of them.
