VIDEO: 100 seconds of the Cadillac Ciel concept @ Frankfurt IAA 2011!

Expect to  be taken back in time in the best possible way with Cadillac Ciel concept which was one of the most ”genuine” design studies revealed at the FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW.

 

By ”genuine” I mean that it wasnt some posh attempt into pleasing everyone or trying to be something your brand is not, instead its what concepts is all about- giving some ”haute couture” of the most extreme things people relate to your brand; and also a bit of history put in it. Rating this as one of the best cars of the expo, enjoy:

We wish all automakers refused to follow trends and feel ashamed of their heritage, but maybe this is a unique case when it comes to Cadillac as a brand? We like it, bigtime…

 

Feel free to give us your own humble opinions on this Cadillac Ciel concept, and to see more “100 seconds of…” clips we got ALL OF THEM HERE (BOOKMARK!).

VIDEO: 100 seconds of Honda Civic 2012 world premiered @ Frankfurt IAA!

Here is another video world premiere from FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW all of us ”JDM-freaks” will find interest in; the brand new generation of the Honda Civic 2012!

 

They claim this car is ”two generations ahead” of its production cycle, but I would have to say that by looking at the exterior- its a bit too bold statement. Maybe it will live up to those words after a testdrive, but we were not too conviced by this first impression sadly…

We have no doubt about that all the different tuners in Japan vill still make this something interesting, but I guess we are still living in a world where we think about things from an enthusiasts perspective; but in reality automakers have to create cars that will sell to the general public.

 

Feel free to give us your own humble opinions on this new generation Civic, and to see more ”100 seconds of…” clips we got ALL OF THEM HERE (BOOKMARK!).

***22/9 LATEST UPDATE: New Porsche 911 and Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupé added!***

Also CHECK OUR FACEBOOK (CLICK!) to get even more info anytime we release something new. Sometimes the blog is updated several times a day, so a perfect way to know when it happens although there are always spontaneous surpries as well!

We have finally counted them all in, and the final number of features Team A (Martin Persson and ”Mike”) did at this expo is around 30…! We are proud to have accomplished this, two days at this place is normally what it takes just to learn where everything is located. But we did it, and David @ SUPERIOR MEDIA has done a fine job of quickly uploading them so we can publish them for you. Here we go:

——————–

ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM COUPÉ!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Rolls Royce Phantom Coupé from Superior Media on Vimeo.

Get more VIP then ever with this world premiere, a two-door coupé of the phenomenal Phantom model. Is Johnny English going to be a better movie with this car having a lead part…?

PORSCHE 911 NEW GENERATION 991 WORLD PREMIERED!

 

 

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Porsche 911 from Superior Media on Vimeo.

Dont have much to say about this one, another generation of Porsche- and we all get older. The design though is not, and its pretty sharp; but is it growing towards an ”older” type of customer base? You decide…

ALFA ROMEO C4 CONCEPT WITH VERY HOT ITALIAN LADY!

 

 

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Alfa Romeo C4 from Superior Media on Vimeo.

We all know Alfa Romeo make beautiful cars, and we all know Frankfurt IAA is a real treat filled with beautiful women as well during the press days; but did we expect to be totally speechless about what they brought to the expo…? No, and I think it shows in the video as well.

 

DACIA DUSTER 850HP PIKES PEAK RACECAR!

 

 

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Dacia Duster Pikes Peak from Superior Media on Vimeo.

One of the positive surprises of the expo was that Dacia brought a car which could compete for the ”highest HP” award. Athough far from its stock form, the ”Duster” which is a 850HP racecar to climb mountains like Pikes Peak, was a mean sight to behold.

SAAB IS NOT OUT OF BUSINESS, OR ARE THEY…?!?

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Saab from Superior Media on Vimeo.

They were supposed to be there, but after carefully studying our little map of the expo and looking around… Well, this is just confusing and should not be taken seriously. No Victor Muller on site!

FERRARI 458 SPIDER HARDTOP WORLD PREMIERED!

 

 

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Ferrari 458 Spider from Superior Media on Vimeo.

As expected, nothing was more of a pain in the ass then to get clear acces to the worlds most (deservedly) posh brand Ferrari. Since we are going to do a special about it later this fall, we honestly didnt try harder then this; but if you are a fan of the prancing horse then check out the clip anyway!

BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GTC WORLD PREMIERED!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Bentley Continental GTC from Superior Media on Vimeo.

Another splendid convertible making its world premiere and making rich peoples lives even more difficult; ”which one should I buy?!”. Oh the poor things, well all we can say which makes logical sense is that the new GTC is one of our favourites if its all about arriving in style and cruising around!

 

ASTON MARTIN ZAGATO & ONE-77!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Aston Martin from Superior Media on Vimeo.

You know you will never ever be dissapointed looking at the perfection which is Aston Martin, but imagine seeing their brand new Italian-influenced Zagato concept and right away skipping over to their supercar the One-77? Well, thats what this clip has to offer so take a look…

MERCEDES LUXURY CONCEPT AND MAIN EVENT HEADLINER!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Mercedes Luxury Concept from Superior Media on Vimeo.

 

If you liked the almost rude in eye-catching capabilities Cadillac concept, you will equally love what the German giant Mercedes brought with them to the expo. This Luxury concept oozes of science-fiction futuristic vibes and I doubt there is anyone that could match it in being 100% fabolous- not even Lady Gaga!

CADILLAC CIEL CONCEPT!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Cadillac Ciel from Superior Media on Vimeo.

 

Another personal favourite now that we’ve had time to evaluate things, and I think the video made the concept some justice too- not going to win any awards for pure design… but as a concept and to demo what the Cadillac brand is all about; surely a winner!

HONDA CIVIC NEW GENERATION 2012!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Honda Civic from Superior Media on Vimeo.

 

A car they called ”ahead two generations” has a lot of hype to live up to, and we were not too impressed although we found some positive things to say about the front end of it. But could have been something ”more” right?

BMW M5 (F10) 2012!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of BMW M5 from Superior Media on Vimeo.

The brand new BMW M5 with its twin-turbo V8 engine did not dissapoint at all, in a way its more aggresive then ever- but still keeping us confused on how good they are still making it look so ”understated”. Check out the mental malfunction of combining Swedish with English to say ” B M W ” as well. 😉

LAMBORGHINI (AVENTADOR x2, GALLARDO SUPERTROFEO STRADALE & MORE!)

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Lamborghini from Superior Media on Vimeo.

Lamborghini was as expected quite a ”top dog” with their presence at Frankfurt, not is size; but in sheer candy for the visual sense. Make sure not to miss their special ”Lamborghini gridgirls” which this clip did capture some goodness of as well..

MERCEDES SLS AMG ROADSTER!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster from Superior Media on Vimeo.

A very anticipated car and of the ”german giants” biggest releases at the expo. A car that is firmly sold with ephasis on the ”gull-wing” doors has lost them, and some unique for Mercedes misses in 100% quality. Strange?

AUDI R8 GT SPYDER!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds of Audi R8 GT Spyder from Superior Media on Vimeo.

One of my favorite cars now that the expo has kind of sunk in. Made some valid points on how added carbon goodness and all the other aggresive details finally made the R8 the supercar Audi wants to promote it as. You also get to see some of he interior of the very impressive hall they had built from scratch!

TOYOTA FT-86 CONCEPT FINAL (?) VERSION!

Frankfurt IAA Auto Expo 2011 – 100 seconds with Toyota FT-86 concept from Superior Media on Vimeo.

For all us big JDM-fans out there, this car had the most relevance to it as its almost being seen as a ”messiah” to rejuvinate our part of the car-world. Seeing it in person, lots of Lexus LFA but some remarks on the wheels and rear spoiler.

VIDEO: 100 seconds of Lamborghini pure sex @ Frankfurt IAA 2011!

superiorsfet4I doubt there is much to tell when it comes to Lamborghini as a brand, and what you can expect such a godlike institution in sex appeal to give us at an expo as huge as the FRANKFURT IAA MOTOR SHOW 2011.

We were (of different reasons) totally starstruck by their stall here, bringing 2x Aventadors and their ”final edition” (?) of the Gallardo; called Super Trofeo Stradale. Accompanying each of these three jaw-droppers were three equally (??) stunning signorinas which had plenty of the crew talking throughout the expo… 😉

Just sit back and relex, try to catch the details in this info- and please do notice the unmistaken smile on my face as it truly is turned up a notch or five-hundred as I did say in the video as well. Lamborghini, we love you!

Got a ton of clips coming out this weekend, its time to get busier then ever and spoil you to god awful limits.

SIR_Pierres episka samling av notiser från Frankfurt IAA 2011!

SIR_PIERRE gick tillsammans med Rani ”RANISFOTO.SE” Giliana som Team B på FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW och nu kommer ett riktigt maffigt inlägg denna duo pusslat ihop- enjoy!

 

 

Är fortfarande inte återhämtat det minsta lilla..

Men eftersom jag redan påbörjade ett inlägg efter första dagen på mässan, Så kan jag ju fortsätta på det.

Detta är egentligen del 2 utav detta inlägget.. Första delen handlar bara om kvinnor och gudinnor.. Men den delen får bli ett eget inlägg när jag har bilder att visa er.

Så jag klistrar in det hela.. Och sen redigerar och lägger till.
Så just keep in mind.. En del är skriven en extremt trött natt efter dag 1.. Och andra delen nu när jag är hemma.

Jag kör lite klassiska notiser lite här o där för att snabbare kunna återgå till mitt dagdrömmande och återhämtande istället.

Vi började morgonen med att gå vilse…

Så för att vara en sån SUPERSTOR och känd bilmässa så kunde jag och Rani tycka att det var lite dåligt organiserat.. Vi saknade liksom den där Tyska *censur* ”strukturen”.

Vi hittade ingen garderob att hänga av våra grejer i.. Så vi fick släpa på en jävla massa väskor allt för länge.. Tills jag ringde till Micke vid 2 tiden och han förklarade att det visst fanns en garderob…..
Så min dag 1 gick mestadels ut på att hålla och vakta väskor medans Rani fick jobba för oss båda på egen hand.

Lite ”direktiv” fick han av mej dock 😉

Vi la också märke till efter 9 timmar på fötterna att det fanns hela 53st ”press-taxi” som körde runt folket på detta STORA område..

Så visst.. Det var kanske inte så illa som vi först tyckte..

Men det var RIKTIGT dåligt med toaletter.., Hittade en lite gömd precis innan vi skulle hem som först.

Likaså med papperskorgar.
Inte för att jag behövde en, Men jag la bara märke till det.
Sist jag var på en bilmässa i tyskland så fanns det överallt.. Var 5e meter.
Men på den tiden så rökte dom också inomhus dom *censur*!

Nu röktes det för det mesta utomhus… Överallt.. Men där var även nån som rökte inomhus..

* Alla tyskar röker.. Som fan.
SHIT vad dom röker!

* Tyskland har RIKTIGT dålig luft.. Såpass att jag på fullaste allvar skulle vilja ha syrgas vid ett par tillfällen.

* Dom verkar inte ha AC någonstans i Tyskland.

* Vi är fortfarande amatörer.. Väskor med hjul.. Vilket geni-drag!

Tillbaka till mässan, När vi kommer in så var det väldigt tyst och stilla.. Öde..
Vi ser SuperSUVen Eterneti.. Jaha.. Ingen hemlighet att den bygger på Porsche inte..

Går vilse lite vidare..

Efter nästan en timme så ser vi vår första hall med bilar (Ni ANAR inte hur stort detta stället är!)

Där står 2st Fisker.

EN VÄLDIGT vacker bil.. Smart. Miljövänligt.. Tänk att ett tak med solpaneler är mer lockande än ett tak i kolfiber.
Det tillkom senare en 3e modell.. Och då som först så insåg jag att det var olika modeller.. Tyvärr tog jag inte mej tiden att se skillnaderna eller inspektera dom något närmre.

Jag kan inte förstå att vi inte sett mer av denna bil..Eller att jag som numera är så miljötänkande inte har brytt mej mer om den/dom..Inte ens när jag hade chans att klämma och känna på plats..
Den måste ju vara färdig att köpa vid detta laget. Jag har för mej att DiCaprio äger en..

En liten notis jag gjorde var att dom hade dessa små detaljer där ändrören brukar sitta.

Frågan är bara.. Behövs detta verkligen? Av vi bilfolket fortfarande så kåta på ”ett fett utblås” att man gör en fejkad variant på en elbil?
Visst jag kan mycket väl hålla med om att man saknar motorljudet/avgasljudet..

Men så som vissa concept gjort att man väljer att släppa ut avgaser ifrån hybridmotorerna via baklamporna är väl hur coolt som?

Visst.. fula ändrör på en annan cool bil förstör mycket..
Men när det inte alls behövs på en elbil?

Då var det dags för vår allra första pressrealese! =)

Klockan var 9 och det var dags för Lotus att presentera nya versioner utav alla sina modeller.

Och vi varken hörde eller såg ett skit!
SÅ vi insåg rätt så snart där efter (Efter 3-4 försök till att medveka i en pressrealese) att det var bättre att göra som jag tänkt från början.
Att när alla andra är vid den monter där det presenteras nya bilar.. Ja då är vi vid en annan monter och jobbar.. Helst där det redan har presenterats nyheter.

Så den första monter/biltillverkare vi täckte ordentligt i lugn och ro var Techart.
(Eller ja lugn och ro vettifan.. Trångt med folk eftersom Lotus höll på med sin pressrealese i ryggen på oss.. Och vi kunde inte ens höra våra egna tankar. Men relativt lungt får man se det som)

Där hade dom en ännu extremare, snyggare, snabbare, lyxigare, dyrare version utav den nya 997 GT2 RS.

* Bilvärlden håller fortfarande fast vid den där med färgad ring på fälgarna alá Volk TA.

Vi jobbar vidare

* Brabus är BÄST!

På alla sätt och vis.. ALLA..
Vilken kvalité… Vilket skinn!

* Mansory var otippat rumsrena i år.
Nästan lite tråkiga montrar.. Hur det nu kan bli det med stylade månmiljonsbilar.

Jag har i många år sen jag såg den fösta Mansory stylade bilen haft stor kärlek för dessa bilar o kolfiber-uniformer.
Men på sista tiden har dom blivit lite tacky..

Men nu var kärleken tillbaka.
Alla bilarna var svart/vita (Som alla andra på hela mässan)
Matt vita och med en massa kolfiber.. Just i min smak.

Men.. Jag saknade en Aston Martin där.. Eller en Veyron..

Vi kan nu kanske ge er en riktigt tidig teaser..
Micke såg Horacio Pagani i och bakom Mansory montern..
Så… Mansory Huayra i framtiden?

* Audi hade byggt en mycket imponerande ”arena” utomhus där dom hade ALLT.

Men utanför denna ”arena” så stod förra årets konceptbilar.. Väldigt bortglömda.

Så vi kan nog glömma en ny Ur-Quattro verkar det som.

* Mercedes S-Klass ser ut som en bebis brevid en Rolls Royce.

* Årets grej på nästan ALLA bilar, Koncept eller färdiga bilar vad matt vitt eller matt svart.

* ALLA konceptbilar hade ”självmordsdörrar” alá Rolls Royce… Alla..

Sist vi såg detta på en ”vanlig” bil var på den bortglömda Mazda RX-8.

Och det var den detalj jag gillar bäst (bara) på den bilen.

* Det är väldigt många som härmar den gamla Ferrari 360 looken.
Artegra, Alfa Romeo, Lotus

* Lancia ”300C” var precis som önskat.
Bra skinn.. Gedigen känsla, Originellt med obehandlat trä.

MYCKET bättre än Chrystler 300C.

* Alla bar Rolex, TAG Heuer eller Omega.
Jag såg en bära en Oris Prodiver..
En stor tysk.. Och jag har aldrig sett den klockan live på någon annan..
DAMN vad den är stor!
Och väldigt få la märke till min PVD Lefty.. Men dom som såg den stirrade ihjäl sej.

* Italienarna hade mest Merchandise, Utan tvekan.
Dom alla sätter sitt namn och logga på ALLT!

* Det tog ett tag för oss att fatta.
Men det bjöds på en hel del.
Drinkar, Kaffe osv, Lätt mat.

Och en massa freebies som USB minnen, Pennor osv osv.

Det kostade bara ett visitkort om ens det =)
Det blev lite av en grej för mej och Rani att gå runt enbart för att plocka freebies =)
Och att döma hur snåla dom var eller inte 😉

* VW hallen hade utan tvekan mest folk.
Men så befann vi oss också i Tyskland..

* Jag gick så mycket så att jag bokstavligen slet ut 2 par helt nya strumpor.. bra sådana.
Men när jag och Rani gick runt för att leta efter en lyxbil passande nog för att vila fötterna i så såg vi ett gäng handikappade i rullstol.
Då var vi JÄVLIGT tacksamma över våra svullna, svettiga fötter ens kunde vara ömma efter ha fått gå för mycket…..

* BMW som enskilt märke hade störst monter.
Åter igen.. Tyskland..
Audi och Mercedes var också STORA! såklart.

* Nissan var inte alls på plats.
* Infiniti var dom stelaste..
Tråkig stämning.. Tråkiga montertjejer (Men en riktigt snygg).
Riktigt stela Gestapo vakter klädda helt i svart.

So.. Thats about it.. Eller vad jag orkar komma med för tillfället iallafall.
En video nu vore toppen att lägga upp ifrån våra dagar.
Men det är svårt att vara snabb och effektiv när alla kuggar i detta urverk bor sprit runt i Sverige. Och alla behövs, Även dom som inte var på plats 😉

Riktigt fet Silvia S15 vs På allvar ännu fetare Mazda RX-7 i garaget!

Jobbat trippel övertid idag sedan klockan 04.30, så lite mör som man brukar (men inför lossning glömmer att man kommer bli). Kan dela en teaserbild av det som vi ska jobba med under morgondagen:

Var enormt konstigt lastat denna gång, så det tog oss mycket längre tid än vanligt. Fick därför ingen riktig överblick över bilarna, men det tar vi igen imorn istället…

Usch så skitiga och ledsna bilarna ser ut, men vi ska få dom må bättre imorn som sagt! Nu blir det en öl med grabbarna, har insane mycket material från Frankfurt som ska ut imorn hela dagen. Vad sägs om minst 4st ”100 secs of…” klipp från mässan?! 😀

Måste skynda vidare mot en väntande containerlossning!

Trist nog trots en drös nya bilder från Martin Persson på två helgrymma amerikanska (Ford & Cadillac) koncept och dessutom en massa från Gatebil Rudskogen av Ronny @ JAMedia- så måste jag rulla vidare för att ta emot en container i Katrineholm!

 

 

Ikväll ska jag sitta med flera inlägg som ska upp, så det kommer bli större volym än vanligt på antalet inlägg; men det är ni väl bara glada över? Vi kör en ”dagens låt” också bara för att runda av:

Och ja, är ett väldigt stort fan av Kasabian som ni säkert hört i flera av SUPERIOR MEDIA filmerna om ni nu är musik-fantaster. 😉

VIDEO: 100 seconds of the new BMW M5 (F10) @ Frankfurt IAA 2011!

A personal favorite at FRANKFURT 2012 IAA MOTOR SHOW which made its world debut at the expo, was the new 2012 BMW M5- dubbed F10 in generation name.

 

This beast in a perfectly cut for understated performance suit could become the best one yet. I particularly like the front end, but not quite sure all my raving of it are justified just seeing this video again. Take a look and see if you agree that the little more ”extended” lines pointing forward are seen are not- loved it anyway…

 

PS. Can you spot the obvious fails in my english saying the cars name? 😉

Lets hear it then, is this the best M5 ever- or do you like any of the previous generations better? Comment below!

SUPERIOR SELECTED: Brief pictoral summary Frankfurt IAA Motor show 2011

Finally the officially first SUPERIOR SELECTED gallery of many to come from the FRANKFURT IAA MOTORSHOW 2011 event. This is just scratching the surface of this humongous expo which if not the biggest then easily one of them!

Martin BILBILDER.SE Persson is the man behind the camera, and while still working on getting the material sorted out- this is like I wrote a mixed bag to know whats coming. If you got any special requests, dont be shy to comment below and make sure to LIKE OUR FACEBOOK so you wont miss anything coming out here.

(Starting out with heavy hands, we got this MANSORY deamon of a car for you. This Ferrari 458 Italia has got any carbon bit you could ask for, and for those who feel ”there is never too much of it” I dare to say this is a real dreamcar. They had several of the worlds premium vehichles at their stand and did everything in black and white which was quite sexy. But why do I get the feeling the JDM tuning-scene knew about the goodness of this like 10 years ago already…?)

(There were dozens of world premieres going on all the time, and we gave up after the third or fourth one eventhough some were quite a show to witness. This is from Subarus stand unveiling their new Subaru XV they call a ”compact SUV”. To be honest comparing this presentation with something the bigger brands had made it look quite… simple. But I’ll never forget Martins reenactment of it later on our hotel, with perfection capturing the moment by crossing two socks over a shoe… Oh you had to be there to get it.)

(We’ll have a lot more from the Aston Martin stand as well, which was somehow a dissapointment lacking totally in flair and cars just ”mashed in” together. How can you feel otherwise when I actually had to take my second lap of this place to spot the One-77 they had brought along? Since its one of my personal dreamcars I took a real close look and confirmed what I suspected; this car doesnt look nearly as much of a supercar on pics as in person. The lines are just ”too perfect” to understand how wide and mean it really is from just a picture. What do you feel about the colour?)

(There were plenty of good-looking women at the expo, and the common theme was that the classiest had Italian heritage. Naturally stands like Alfa Romeos were very popular to revisit during the day…)

(Just like you can imagine, the amount of ”design concepts” being shown was almost silly. Some were just plain unnecessary as if the ”if you dont have anything good to say, don’t say it at all”. Its afterall a matter of showing what the engineers in more playful and without boundries are coming up with within the brand, not a type of gimmick you must have at a large expo. With that being stated, how do you feel about this Chevrolet concept?)

(Although far from being a combination of an expo which also includes motorsport, Audi were busy showing their new Audi A5 DTM coming this season. Some brands brought their ”big dawgs” in different racing classes with them as well, but it was honestly far from a priority- and they were more or less treated less then ”icing on the cake”. This was actually outside of the huge built from scratch hall Audi had, proving that statement. More from inside there coming…!)

(Something we wont try and keep secret is that we really liked the Lamborghini stand at Frankfurt. A lot. Immensly even! Having two Aventador and the brand new limited edition Gallardo Super Trofeo Stradale gave plenty to look at. I do know something the people did not like to look at was Martins back when we got a special moment inside the closed barriers surrounding it = you know we got gooood pics coming up.)

(The Superior Team which gives me a super occasion to individually thanking them one by one. From the left: Martin Persson (FACEBOOK) who was my partner all days, never afraid of some hard work and to give brutally honest opinions in decision-making. Pierre Ingelsgård who with his enthusiasm and knowledge lightyears ahead of my own in the ”connoiseur” type of cars was a very valuable addition to the team, be sure to read his OTHER BLOG to know more about the charachter this dude is. And finally to my own left we got Rani ”RANISFOTO.SE” Giliana who is like a younger Martin in the making, both in skills and charachter. Never ever a single whine and positive attitude to always give it his best contributing to the team. Thanks to all of you!)

Hope you enjoyed this, and dont be afraid to drop of a few comments below if there is anything you want to ask us. Being down there in Frankfurt was honestly a car enthusiasts slice of heaven; so we really want to share with each and every one of you. Dont be shy to give requests!

[nggallery id=356]

Still just a small sample gallery, and lists are still being made on what to blog about from the expo. I think we will start to get seriously busy in around a day or two, but we also hope some SUPERIOR MEDIA ”100 second of…” clips will drop in the blog regularly.

You can expect tons of stuff coming, so really hope you have bookmarked THE BLOG and have ”liked” us on OUR FACEBOOK so you never miss anything. 🙂

Feel free to share the above links, got someone who likes cars and the lifestyle around them- pass it on to let more people know about us and the media we post for your enjoyment!

VIDEO: 100 seconds of Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster @ Frankfurt IAA!

This clip eventhough we had to superrush it and squeezing with a ton of other TV-teams, shows a quick glimpse of the Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster having just been world premiered at FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW!

 

We did a lot of these ”100 seconds of…” features, and some were more obviously improvised then others- but we felt this car and the unusual lack of some finishing touches made it worth posting. If you didnt like this particular one, no shame in admitting so in the comments below!

We made it a little thin red line to follow to show you some of the premium convertibles coming out very soon, and the importance of the Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster I guess forgives the journalistic quality of this clip. Hope you find something useful, and if not- 100 seconds is not too much time to waste! 😉

 

Still doing a ton of work going through everything we did down in Germany, but getting more and more organized = insane amount of stuff coming out soon…
