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.

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!

Martin BILBILDER.SE Persson took plenty of nice photographs there, so apart from this video really giving you a good glimpse and plenty of drool-reasons; we’ll make sure to cover this even more. Just be patient…

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

 

People are working non-stop to share everything in a rush- please show your support by a simple comment below at least! 🙂

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…

VIDEO: 100 seconds of Audi R8 GT Spyder @ Frankfurt IAA 2011!

Today we got the world premiered Audi R8 GT Spyder being given 100 seconds of attention from the Superior Media team down at the FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW. The specially built from scratch Audi hall was very busy, and we were competing with many other video teams just to get a glimpse of this incredible machine!

I would have loved to see more of this car in action, it was actually running laps around inside the hall but it was mostly ”gimicky” to impress rather then giving up its true engine sound etc. Really impressed with Audi this time around, even if they will forever be the little brother of BMW and Mercedes they are as a brand honestly becoming exciting as hell!

 

Hope you like these snippets we call ”100 seconds of…”, lot more of those coming up and also recap-blogging with quality pics from both Rani Giliana and Martin Persson.

 

Shame the expo is over, but gotto admit seeing the material and to share it will each time be like revisiting these two extremely memorable days! 🙂

Ett axplock bilder från första dagen på Frankfurt IAA bilmässa 2011

Innan vi går och lägger oss måste vi ju belöna alla våra trogna svenska läsares tålamod och uppmuntran med ett litet axplock blogg och bilder och från Frankfurt IAA bilmässan 2011 iaf?

 

Martin ”BILBILDER.SE” Persson och jag har sållat över de mest (spontana) bilderna han tog mellan varven av ca 90% filmande, mest ”100 seconds of…” typ av features som vi bestämde att göra. Slutsatsen är fyra stycken som alla har en liten story bakom sig.

 

Det blir mycket mer av den här varan, och vi hoppas ni förstår att det inte riktigt är det himmelrike man kan tro i tillgängligt nät och framförallt ro att lägga ut materialet vi fångar…

 

 

(SLS AMG Roadster var ju en efterlängtad release, och även om den vanliga versionen förmodligen blev så omåttligt populär tack vare sina ”måsvinge-dörrar” och starka koppling till gamla ur-klassikern SL; så ser denna riktigt bra ut utan dom. Däremot ifrågasätter vi om en verkligen är ”färdig” då det fanns många banala skvanker som att cabben så lite hafsigt ihoptryckt ut nedcabbad, och dörrar ärligt talat hade rätt dålig passform mot karossen? Inte likt Mercedes…)

 

 

(Den stora fienden till ovan Merca när det gäller att åka med toppen av, är Audis R8 GT Spyder som lanseras på samma dag. Där vi tyckte SLS drogs med ett par frågetecken på kvalitetskänsla, så gör denna totalt tvärtom och fick oss smälta totalt med sina underbara detaljer. Visst, Audi har gjort sig kända som en premiumtillverkare på detta vis; men vi tycker med denna mer ”trackday inspirerade” version de på allvar ger sig in i samma liga som Lamborghini och Ferrari t.ex. Stor favorit!)

 

 

(Är man på världens viktigaste och pampigaste bilmässa så kommer man även få se en hel del damer av samma ”klass” om man nu får objektifiera lite. Pierre lyckades bli kär hela tre gånger på mässan, och denna donna av Italienskt ursprung hos Lamborghini var en av de vållande. Bedöm själva och lämna en kommentar, Pierre hade rätt bryska kommentarer om jämförelsen med Elmia-brudar som vi tyvärr inte kan sätta i pränt…)

 

(Man ska vara stolt över sitt ursprung, och efter ett litet snack med en av cheferna bakom detta koncept Volvo kallar ”You” kände man det än mer. Vi ska göra en djupdykning av denna minimalistiska studie av skandinavisk lyx under morgondagen- men faktiskt så kände vi att det fanns en uppriktighet och mening bakom ”snacket” också som intresserade oss mycket. Well done Volvo, dessutom utan att skämmas ”det mest svenska som vi gjort på länge” i syftan på var kompetensen bakom konceptet från A till B funnits!)

 

Imorn blir det lite mer fokus på att fotografera, Martin har inte tagit en enda ”seriös” bild utan allt är mer ”papparazzi” på fri hand mellan att vi filmat. Är ändå otroligt många filmer likt den av TOYOTA FT-86 vi gjort innan. Så målet att ”visa hur det är på plats” ska vi absolut kunna nå när allt är sagt och gjort…

 

Har ni några önskemål? Läst om något spännande som ni vill ha våran åsikt på? Eller bara hissa/dissa någon i teamet? Bring it on i kommentarerna nedan! 🙂
