GUEST BLOG> Eurowerkz BMW 330i E90 & Z4M
As soon as Chad from Eurowerkz told us his Eurowerkz R3DBULL BMW 330i E90 was ready for a photo shoot (and that he had found the perfect place for it), Johan from WSTO literally stopped everything he was doing and left for a solo drive to Minneapolis Minnesota. Starting out late in the afternoon from WSTO headquarters with nothing more than a toothbrush and his camera equipment, he braved the hellish seven-hour drive from Chicago IL to Minneapolis MN. Actually, the drive isn't really bad at all - except for, in this case, the tornado alerts and huge thunderstorms. Not good.
Arriving around midnight, Johan met up with the gus from Eurowerkz at Auto MotorPlex - an enthusiast's dream. It's a private garage built to your own specifications. Whether you're there for storage or a little wrench work, the environment is specifically engineered to engender the height of personalization and comfort - the space feels uniquely designed for your car and yourself. There's even a lounge and a club house for residents. Very cool! Of course, this called for a night shoot - even though he was still drained from the drive through Hades to get there. Read more...

COVERAGE> HellaFlush Scrapes Buttonwillow, Pt.2
I know you've been waiting for it, so here's the second installment in our HellaFlush 3.5 event coverage from Buttonwillow Raceway. I'm not sure that there have ever been this many cars with aggressive fitment and stance at the Lerdo Highway exit off the California Interstate 5 highway.
Honestly, I gotta give props to all the Northern California people who came down to this event. Not only does it show that Northern Cali folks are super down and committed, but it was also great to see a lot of cars come out of the woodwork that we normally don't see on blogs and websites. I'd love to expand the MotorMavens reach from doing mostly Southern California events all the time, but it really is kind of difficult as we're doing this as privateers, and we don't have a big corporate budget of several hundred thousand dollars to spend each year like some of the other blogs out there. However, we're resourceful, so we will keep trying to break boundaries, and keep doing our best with the Macaroni-and-Cheese/Cup-o-Noodle budget that we currently have. Hope you like the photos!
