Going the shameless route of promoting that there is a very hot lady in this video featuring Alfa Romeo 4C concept at FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW. Actually, its needless to plug it this way because this car was in its natural beautiful self worth taking a long look at!
Not sure where to put Alfa Romeo as a brand right now, they seem to struggle losing that permanent label of being a ”designer brand” with ”fance engine sound” before something you would actually buy judgeing by simple common sense. If they can keep the pricetag down on this one though, I would really like to see many of the on the streets…
I have looked on this clip several times, and I think there is a clear connection to my slightly (even more then usual) confusion and the things that the camera catches. So go have a look yourselves, and see if you can forgive me. 😉
Going to try and push the pace even more so we can have ALL CLIPS (CLICK!) gathered from the expo very soon. I hope the around 100 seconds each one is in lenght keeps you all to keep watching them, not much time to ask for! 🙂
Here is a bit of a surprise, when we saw that Dacia were on location we… didn’t care at all! But looking closer, we saw a car which made us change our opinion- Dacia Duster! Funny that the least sporty brand on FRANKFURT MOTORSHOW 2011still brought one of the meanest racecars?
This thing is as you can guess a Pikes Peak racecar, and with its 850HP coming from the Nissan GT-R engine it gives me the same feeling as that Suzuki Swift did in some random videogame a few years or so back?!
Bit of a sleeper for the ”car I would like to drive” award at Frankfurt, but if the occasion would come I would probably be far too scared getting into this small monster. We all know the old Gruppe B drivers had to take a lot of pills sometimes to manage their fears and block adrenaline racing their beast so… maybe not a wise move for an amature driver like me!
The Frankfurt-frenzy continues today with more ”100 seconds of…” clips and plenty of SUPERIOR SELECTED top quality galleries. Hope your enjoying the show so far…
Lets get this one over with, Ferrari was as always a major attraction at the FRANKFURT IAA 2011and their stall was always too full for our patience to cope with it- and that even if the only major news was the 458 Spyder (Hardtop actually).
We were in quite a rush here, and did not felt like waiting in line to get a clearer shot- then suddenly the hardtop came off and we wanted to shoot that right away so… meh, not one of our best clips. Maybe just out of entertainment value of my obvious hesitation all the time. 😉
Doing a re-shoot is for wimps, and the good news is that thanks to AUTOROPA which is Swedens Ferrari dealer #1 we will get a closer look of it anyway. So don’t want to be unecessarily hard on myself but, forget about this clip and check ALL THE OTHER ”100 seconds of…” we did at Frankfurt instead. 😉
Looking at the list of features like this one still waiting we got some really impressive ones that remain and we are more happy with.
Hope they are scratching the surface on how big and awesome this expo was…
Following up our ASTON MARTIN clip we got another British nobleman this time in its most summer-friendly mood; The Bentley Continental GTC that world premiered at FRANKFURT IAA MOTOR SHOW 2011!
Bentley seems to have found a secret forumula were these behemoths in size still look sleek, sporty and inviting for anyone to drive. Lots of love from us to the Crewe based automakers which I think have finally distinguished them totally from ”big brother” Rolls-Royce!
I liked the result of this clip as it showed most the car in a good way, some of our clips leave some of that to wish for- but I guess shooting over 30 cars in less then two days makes it excuseable. Got another hot convertible that world premiered thats coming up shortly too in the Ferrari 458 Spyder!
Do you agree with that this GTC is certainly something you wouldn’t mind ”coming to a party in”?
I know there was a bunch of such dream cars, but this one get a high place on my personal wishlist for such occasion… 😉
Time to get busy again with our ”100 seconds of…” clips (Find them all HERE) from the FRANKFURT IAA 2011 EXPO, this time with the most noble of all british brands- Aston Martin! We got most of the Zagato concept, some V12 Vantage and also a tiny bit of One-77 in a special colour!
Oddly enough, I feel quite dissapointed at myself for not spending more time in this part of the expo. Never made a secret of that Aston Martin is a brand I did pull a lot of inspiration from on my current 700+HP Toyota Soarer project. But, forget about that and enjoy among my usual confusing english some damn good automaking… 😉
How do you feel about the Zagato? Is it perfection in the making? And do you agree with that the colour of that One-77 could possibly be the worst one to pick for such an astounding car?
Really looking forward to more feedback on these clips, don’t be shy to comment below and take your time to check them ALL OUT HERE! 🙂
Say what? Did you mean the same automaker that is currently put out of business and ready to be shopped on a huge discount by some random group of Chinese people? I guess so, please dont take this clip too serious- as we surely didn’t… 😉
The state of the whole ordeal with Saab is quite sad indeed, but we hope they will bounce back as a small ”nische” kind of brand somewhere. But if you can’t play with the big dogs of the upper middle class of the auto industry you can’t expect to be bailed out by the government. What do you guys think?
Far more (serious) ”100 seconds of…” clips can be found in a neat and tidy thread HERE. Enjoy! 🙂
Coming of the CADILLAC CONCEPTwe did a video of, we got another impressive one from Mercedes that has ”luxury in the future” written all over it- so coming from one of the German giants it was a blockbuster indeed in FRANKFURT IAA 2011 EXPO!
I think the best line about this concept was used in the video, that even Lady Gaga would blend in and not look her usual crazy self if she sat in this car. Fun to see a brand very aiming towards more strict and ”business” sort of appeal make both this luxury concept and the A-klasse they also did so wild!
I was lucky enough to catch this beast in motion for a few seconds before I was drowned in the crowd that was present during Mercedes mega-pressrelease show, and if this is a hint of how the future might look Iam all for it– sign me up today!
This is the last video feature of the day, in total there is around 30 of them and we gather them all IN THIS POST so you can easily keep track of the action.
Hope you’ve all had a pleasant sunday, and before you go to bed- Lamborghini will give you something to dream about as Martin Persson has a gallery coming… 🙂
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!).
Here is another video world premiere from FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOWall 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!).
Instead of clogging up the news too much, you can use THIS POST (BOOKMARK!) continually updated with all the latest links to the other ”100 seconds of…” video-clips we did at FRANKFURT IAA 2011 MOTOR SHOW!
***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:
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…?
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…
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.
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.
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!
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!
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!
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…
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!
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!
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?
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 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..
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?
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!
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.

We appreciate you sharing THIS BLOGPOST LINK as much as you feel like, and make sure to LIKE OUR FACEBOOK like mentioned to stay tuned with everything else we do here at Superior!
I 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! 🙂
A personal favorite at FRANKFURT 2012 IAA MOTOR SHOWwhich 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? 😉
We are getting closer to knowing exactly what it is we captured in these two whirlwinds of days. A complete list of all ”100 seconds of…” features is coming soon. So we can have a bit of a vote on which to put a priority on. Always taking requests too if you got any!
Make sure to ”Like” our FACEBOOK PAGE so that you can easier follow the action here in the Superior-blog.
Lets hear it then, is this the best M5 ever- or do you like any of the previous generations better? Comment below!
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…
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! 🙂
We here at SUPERIOR MEDIAbring it easy and rather with more enthusiasm then rambling facts and deep conclusions. The Toyota FT-86 concept is one of the news any JDM-fan in waiting for, and we went right for it at FRANKFURT IAA MOTOR SHOW 2011 to give you a ”100 seconds” feature of it:
We wont apologize for my lack of experience in front of the camera, and the whole segment is un-rehersed so you’ll find a glitch here and there. But hopefully it will make you more curious about the concept, because sure as hell there are hundreds of others who have done more elaborate in-dephts reports on this.
We just like to call this scratching the surface and having fun with our visit to Frankfurt. Feel free to bring some constructive opinion on whay you think? 🙂
Enough with the talk, its time to show what we have been up to ever since Gatebil Mantorp 2011 ended and we got home with hours of insane action from this unique event!
We’ve been hyping it for a long time, but hope we a least will please everyone who knows about such Gatebil-profiles as Driftmonkey, The Alm Bros, TS-Motor, KRB Trading and Swedes like Team Raidopower Motorsport, Limmet ProInt Drift & so on…!
We hope you will take our advice and watch this killer-movie with the best possible display and sound you can muster. We worked extremely hard on those details and feel its injustice to watch this on a PC-screen or smaller (unless you need to view it while on the fly). 😉
So sit back, open up a bottle of your favourite beer and enjoy the show (this movie is/was released on a saturday) to the fullest. Wheter you liked it or not, please leave your review in the comments below. Here we go!
If you really liked it we would be extremely grateful if you spread it on your Facebook and any small or big forum you might be a member on. We strive on reaching a big audience to be able to continue to produce passionate and high quality production like this one…
Feel free to ”like” our Facebook (Superior Imports AB) and continue to follow our blog where there is always plenty of action coming even if you don’t speak Swedish…
…cheers to the heroes that made this movie possible, from the drivers to the organizers that gave us the green light to use our tools to the fullest. Thank you!
So you want to know what the Swedish tuning-scene is like? Do we have what it takes building speed, driving it- or just making things look good?
Would it be a bold statement to say we might considering size-wise we even do it quite well?Look no further for proof of this then what BILSPORT ACTION MEET has to offer = the largest auto-activity based event in the country. As always based on the home of Swedish motorsport, MANTORP PARK!
We are pleased to show you how we captured the event one sunny saturday a week or so ago. This meet has always been heavily centered around the 402m dragracing which is very popular among streetcars to compete eachother in, but this year drifting entered the scene with a bang; and in our opinion stole the show!
Finaly we capped it off with the essential views on what the Show and shine had to offer as well, as the field was quite dense in the Top 10 and there were some nice (and less nice) cars on location. I wish the song used in the final part would translate well to English, but we couldn’t help to throw in some carefree humour into the mix as well there… Enjoy!
We really hope you like it, and will lend us a hand to spread the work we do- and naturally the Swedish tuning-scene itself. Pleasing news to say the least are, that this was a week-long (intense!) project for us- but very soon we will release our blockbuster production from GATEBIL MANTORP 2011!
(We give a ”money-back” guarantee you will enjoy the Gatebil movie which includes all madness from guys like Team Driftmonkey, DTS Systems Supra, Team Yellow, The Alm Bros, Team Raidopower Motorsport and lots and lots more truly mad stuff!)
*DISCLAIMER: Movie is for free anyway… but we still think you´ll love it!* 😉
There is plenty to see in our VIMEO-CHANNEL when it comes to movies, and if you are in the mood for the best pictures from the different meets & events around the country- all you need is this SUPERIOR SELECTED LINKwhere there is plenty to feast your eyes upon!
Make sure to add us on FACEBOOK (CLICK!) so you wont miss any of the action. We promise plenty of media that speak the infinite language that is the love we have for the whole scene!
Thanks in advance for leaving your sincere opinions in the comments below. We have thick skin and enjoy your good and bad pointers on the production…
Dags för en första trailer av jag vet inte hur många, jag och David @ SUPERIOR MEDIA har bollat ideer som galningar mellan alla andra saker som måste fixas efter ett sagoligt GATEBIL MANTORP 2011!
Denna produktion går i klassisk (kan man säga så om något så ungt) stil när det gäller våra filmer, och ni med lika koll vet vilken film vi har en enorm förkärlek till…
Hoppas ni får goda vibbar av detta, vi har så sjukt mycket material från detta event att vi nog ärligt talat behöver lite tid på oss att sålla ut vad som ska användas. Men hey, större problem än så har man ju haft.
Kommer garanterat en trailer till, jag har tjatat sönder David som är producent för filmerna att använda en Arctic Monkeys låt bra länge nu. Blir det den i nästa…? Vad tycker ni annars om våra extremt blandade musikval?
Observera att våra klipp inte får ses utan en rejäl ljudanläggning eller i minsta fall hörlurar. Man går misste om så otroligt mycket mer några fattiga datorhögtalare, och den ljuvliga HD-kvaliten är inget man vill slösa på en liten datorskärm. Testa och jämför själv, kvalité kräver kvalité! 😉
Om ni inte vill missa ytterligare trailers och mängder av grymma gallerier, bloggande och dylikt- GILLA OSS PÅ FACEBOOK så löser sig alla problem. See you there!
Sista lilla SUPERIOR MEDIA videon INFÖR GATEBIL MANTORP 2011och ännu ett stycke vacker klassisk musik blandat med feta bilar och körning som kännetecknar detta galna event. Man kan summera allt nu såhär nära inpå att; ni aldrig kommer få se MANTORP PARKvåldgästas och bilar misshandlas så hårt som under Gatebil!
Ni som följt VANJA ”JILL” HELLBERGS INFÖR BLOGGvet ju att ovan röda Audi A4 vet ju att bröderna Alm kommer till Mantorp i år igen, och vi kommer garanterat se mer fantastiska sladdar med omöjliga vinklar av dom denna gång med- bara njuta av filmen och givetvis förstå att detta bara är en delikat försmak av den konstanta action som pågår på banan!
Jag tror superlativ och hyllningar för GATEBIL MANTORP som event förbrukats för längesedan, men detta måste upplevas live för att man ska förstå det (har också varit ”tvivlare”). Men de som inte kan komma så vet ni ju att bokmärka SUPERIOR BLOGGEN är enda rätta samt GILLA VÅR FACEBOOK där allt också kopplas ihop.
Nu är det inte långt kvar innan man åker ner till MANTORP PARK och möter upp chefen Mikael Hammarström som vi är evigt tacksamma för över förtroendet han gett oss.
Vi lovar belöna er alla tusenfaldigt för detta, och göra the best damn show online någonsin– ingenting mindre duger för oss denna gång!
Here we go again! Ännu en promo och tre stycken till är faktiskt på väg inför GATEBIL MANTORP2011 den 17 – 19 Juni denna helg!
Förra temat var Gatebil Extreme bilarna och nu går vi över till något som kallas för Powerdridting och borde vara nationalsport i Norge då de är överlägset bäst på det enligt mig…!
Vi kommer gladeligen ta emot din kritik på valet av musik då jag kan avslöja att de två andra promos vi har på väg också har klassisk musik. Ni vet vid det här laget att vi älskar prova nytt, och som en tillbakadraget men ändock stort fan av den typen av elixir för öronen så tyckte både jag och David @ SUPERIOR MEDIAdet var dags att prova; enjoy!
Vi är enormt stolta över vilken respons vi fått på våra filmer hittills, men välkomnar alla nya att GILLA OSS PÅ FACEBOOK då det också är ett ställe som försäkrar er om att aldrig missa något. Kommer nog rulla på ordentligt här i bloggen närmsta veckorna med videoklipp… 🙂
Vi har en massa goda nyheter om nya samarbeten att berätta om, samt att en ”Ten of the best” lista från VINGÅKRA-TRÄFFEN 2011 är på väg ut tills morgondagen- pepp pepp! 😀
