Couple of weeks ago our crew was invited by Studie AG Thailand (RSR Automotive) to visit the Autobacs Super GT race at Buriram, Thailand. We happened to be in Bangkok at that time and simply couldn’t resist the offer to have a look at the race. Race day was 21 June 2015 at Chang International Circuit, and the Studie AG …

Being a trendsetter. More often than not I’d stumble upon car enthusiasts who’re continuously reinventing their car builds over periods of time. Constantly new parts are added into the build, often replacing older ones that are starting to look outdated. Always innovating to be different, always pushing the limits of creativity.

Read MoreProper Classic // Ferrari 458 on HRE
An Italian architect, Luigi Caccia once mentioned,”[Italian designers are] better mediators between the past and the future.” A perspective which I’ve found rather interesting. Considering all the fine automobiles and fashion influences that Italian designers have brought out over the years, such a statement is pretty true. From Fiat to Pagani, we’ve all seen their uniquely eccentric-yet-timeless designs that has …

When we think of birds, the ones that came up on our minds are usually small, peaceful avian creatures; small enough to hold on our fingers while emitting cheerful sounds, fed on seeds.

Making a vase from clay requires hours of clay-handling experience; preparing a five-star sushi-course demands years or even decades of experience. Almost nothing outstanding in this life ever comes from a mere overnight effort. Time and knowledge are the essence in getting things right. Even in the world of automotive, it often takes years of R&D and evolutions to come …
Read MoreGrown to Speed // Honda S2000 on TE37SL
These days I think the ‘stance’ car scenes are pretty much like desserts. They have a large fan-base, have very nice exterior presentations, and showcase some nicely executed, flavourful experiences. Yet not everyone likes them, and frankly they’re not too good for your health either (or car’s health in this matter). Slammed, static, bagged, we’ve seen and heard about them …
