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.

Renovating a house is a complicated process. If you think that it is as easy as giving general ideas to contractors and hoping for the best to happen, you’d better think again.

Read MoreSolid Performer // BMW F30 335i on HRE

Right now …
Read MoreStreet Rules // Porsche 911 Turbo S on HRE
Porsche. Most people recognise it for the company’s range of high-performance sports cars. Highly capable of churning large HP outputs (such as today’s Turbo S with an excess of 520HP), yet perfectly safe to be manoeuvred across tight alleys under low speed. Iconic curvy aerodynamic design is another top-of-mind for the brand. However, the way I see it, Porsche hasn’t …

In 1975, BMW continued the success of their compact BMW 2002 Coupe with the first 3-Series ever produced: the E21.
