    Wagon Attack!

    This is a complete 180 from the video I posted earlier today.

    If you find yourself feeling strangely attached to cars that seem to have no redeeming value to anyone besides yourself, you have a jump start on relating to this video. There’s something about being loyal to a vehicle that has been loyal to you that gets me every time. I still miss my first car, an automatic 1991 Subaru Legacy L Wagon. It had 4 Hella 500s mounted to the front bumper and sported raised white letter BFGs. It sacrificed itself to other motorists on multiple occasions, usually in college parking lots, each time brushing off the attack and continuing it’s reliable service while I used the insurance money to pay rent.

    But I digress. Fun and well-done video here.

    The behind the scenes is also worth a look.

    Thanks to Erik for the link.

    Monday Evening Video

    I was messing around online doing my usual rounds and ended up getting sucked into the black hole which is YouTube. So addicting.

    I found a couple threads with links to vids of a pretty rare E30, the 320is. This was a model only made available in Italy and Portugal because they couldnt affordably import the M3, due to steep taxes on cars over 2 liters in displacement. It’s basically a standard E30 iS car with a de-bored 2L S14 motor from the M3. These cars were super rare. Lightweight, well-balanced, with just about everything that made the M3 great, but with even more exclusivity. It’s odd BMW felt these small markets were important enough to create and totally unique model, but I’m glad they did.

    You can read a bit more about them here.

    I chose this video out the pack for a couple reasons:

    1) It has Megadeth at the beginning and end.
    2) Apparently this car is spec’d with cams and a carbon airbox and sounds unbelievably good.
    3) The Accelerometer and Lateral G Force charts are sweet.
    4) It’s the Nurburgring.

    Enjoy!

    E30M Weltmeister '87 Prints

    A package was waiting for me on the doorstep when I got back from NGP today. It’s a new product I’ve been pretty stoked on, we’re breaking some new ground with this and I’m hoping you guys will dig em too.

    I’ve been wanting to do some prints for awhile, but wasn’t quite sure how well things would translate. After I finished the Weltmeister ’87 design I knew I had the perfect candidate. 8380PALZ Dan Lutz and Dave Toto are responsible for the printing and they did a great job, they came out super nice. They are 15″×20″ and printed on white 90lb. Stonehenge paper, the inks are hand-mixed TWGraphics. Each one will be numbered, with a total of 15 prints in this edition.

    If things progress nicely, we’ll be doing more Unbesiegt prints, with the potential for all kinds of other designs as well.

    They are now available for order in the Shop, get em while they last, enjoy!
