I’ve been on a nostalgia kick lately. Having owned a few late model BMWs in my life, I had finally come to the conclusion that I needed one that was a relative classic. I decided I would aim for the ...
I'm a sedan guy, through and through. There's something special about a 4-door "sports" car, or at minimum, a 4-door touring car with a bit of bite, and if you ask me, it fits the BMW ethos rather we...
It was nearly two years ago that Rusty was finally unveiled: the cover was pulled back and the latest iteration of a car-turned-legend was shared with the world at SEMA, 2015. However, two years of h...
A simple glance at Craig Metros's '31 Ford will establish a few things rather quickly: he's a man of good taste, for one. With a car that balances traditional styling, modern touches, and quintessent...
A simple glance at Craig Metros's '32 Ford will establish a few things rather quickly: he's a man of good taste, for one. With a car that balances traditional styling, modern touches, and quintessent...
In the days leading up to the famous Monterey Car Week, we took our Land Cruisers up for some trail fun in Big Bear, CA, to escape the heat. With our project FJ60 complete, Jeremy Whittle's FJ62 tune...
I'll admit: I never expected to feature an Isuzu NPR commercial truck on StanceWorks. This site has taken us to the corners of automotive enthusiasm; however, the realm of custom haulers is one we've...
Frankly, it's the last car I'd have expected to fall in love with. I struggle to find infatuation with cars of the era; I often jokingly suggest they look like machines from Wacky Races, or like some...
It was just 3 days ago that BMW unveiled the all-new Concept Z4, a continuation of the brand's renowned roadster. The teasers that surfaced piqued our interest, and the press images had us craving mo...
We're all on an automotive journey of our own, no surprise there. It's typically over time that we find the right car for us. What can be surprising though, is when the journey of finding the perfect...
It's been almost six months since I purchased my FJ60, following an accident that rendered my FJ62 Land Cruiser a total loss. I purchased this particular FJ60, bone stock, for two reasons: it's compl...
There's a long-running joke - something about how Porsche 911s are just fancy Volkswagen Beetles. I'm sure there are a dozen-and-one variants, and truth be told, I've probably said them all in passin...
Rounding out this week's trio of DV Mechanics-built Alfa Giulias is a rather unique example, and this time, it's not owned by Dorian Valenzuela himself. Instead, it's owned by friend and fellow Alfa ...
There are few events in the world quite like the Carerra Panamericana... if any. Covering nearly 1,000 miles on public roads in a race that spans an entire week, and wrought of classic rally cars, Me...
For years, we've longed to join in on the absolutely incredible Goodwood Members' Meeting. As is tradition, however, we've missed it once again, instead forcing ourselves to enjoy from afar. Luckily ...
I started planning this trip a long time ago, in my free time. When it was finally time to leave, I left Santa Barbara around 9am on Saturday to start the long trek towards the St. George area to mee...
When it comes to cool cars, there are a million-and-one ways to build them. That's probably pretty obvious. However, there are also a handful of surefire tried-and-true ways to build a show stopper. ...
To put it simply, life has its ups and downs. Each and every one of us is dealt a hand of cards, with some of us landing more advantageous hands than others. As we make our way through the journey of...
With each new season of Fromula Drift comes new cars, new drivers, new teams, and new styles. It's a sport that has evolved in countless ways - some more appreciated than others - but one thing remai...
There's no real way to put this lightly, so I'm going to start off with a bang. The Dodge Demon is one of the coolest cars ever built, period. I dare you to disagree with me. It makes my heart race, ...
It's hard to say why, exactly, but it's probably safe to say that there's something simply special about the Spoon Sports Hondas. There always has been, in my eyes. Even as an enthusiast that unwaver...
Oh, Khalil.... We've been known to call him Khalil "Car Killer" Kassem. That's mostly because it alliterates rather well, flowing off the tongue like some hard-earned street name, but it's also becau...
What makes a car " cool?" It's a worthwhile question, but I'm rather confident it's one that doesn't have a precise answer. From style and prowess to performance and power, from concepts and ideas, t...
For every classic BMW fan, there are a few universal truths. For one, there's no car quite like one with a Roundel... although that may be a bit subjective. Another, a bit more inarguable, is the lim...
Crawling through the paddock of the Rolex Monterey Motorsport Reunion is, in many ways, perhaps the best part of the event as a whole. The scream of the classic race cars on track as they blaze a pat...
