BMW.SG celebrates 10 Years! "The People"

What a night it was and what a way to celebrate our 10 years of online/offline existence. Even up to the day of the event, most of us helping to put together the party were still running around trying to tie up all loose ends and setting up.




With the event soon to begin, we had some extra help from some very lovely ladies.

The kickass t-shirt.



Some of our participants were visibly more emotional then others when playing games.






More last minute work for our lucky draw.


We secretly bought flowers for the main lady who spear-headed this event.

BMW.SG's 10th Anniversary Party "Preview"

We very recently had our 10th year anniversary celebrations. Held over at the local M-car dealership, it was an awesome night of good food, great drinks and the best bunch of car enthusiast ever! While we get all our photos sorted, here’s a short clip to tide you all over.

BMW F20 1 Series parties into Singapore

Local BMW dealership Performance Motors held the local launch of the F20 1 Series by throwing an awesome party where good food and drinks flowed freely into the night. Surrounded by (i kid you not) a throng of beautiful looking people, the new 1 Series was unveiled.



Unfortunately, with the lighting conditions setup to twirl and swirl with the music, getting a good shot of the new F20 was not going to be easy. To help you imagine how it will look, i'd say the front end might take some getting used to, the mid to rear we can easily aquaint ourselves with and the interior is an improvment over the old model by leaps and bounds.

Quality, fit and finish on the inside gives it a feel well deserving of the roundel badge.

I would post pictures of all the lovely ladies present (alot alot alot), but my camera exploded out of ecstasy.

Subaru drops in with the BRZ Concept 2011 (Finally!)

After sitting in the shadow's of the Toyota FT86, Subaru has finally unwrapped the (virtual) covers off it's version of the FT sportscar, the BRZ. Has a much better rear light treatment over the Toyota i might add. For more pictures and information, head over to FT86club.com »
