Ep.12 - SILLY SAAB

Scott muses about the act of collecting art and automobiles, while experiencing the wide open sky in his convertible Saab 900 in the Californian desert, triggering memories of a youth spent in rural Maine with the automobile acting as a means of freedom.

Ep.11 - THE WEDGE

Jose loves carving the canyons in his Bertone X1/9, having fallen for its fiery Italian temper as a youngster. His fascination for anything with an engine in it comes in handy, seeing as how his wedge wouldn't come close to winning a 'the most reliable' award anytime soon. But anytime he gets behind the wheel, it all becomes worthwhile.

Ep.10 - THE 6ER

Andrea cruises the Swiss Alps in his ’82 BMW 628 CSi while exploring the haptic feedback of the buttons - “Klack!” - and how future memories will be that much sweeter thanks to using his car as a daily driver.

Ep.9 - JAGUAR GIRL

April carves through some canyon roads in her Jaguar XJS, as she remembers how she fell in love with Jaguar as a little girl and how her Jaguar has been her daily driver for the past 20 years.

Ep.8 - SPORT SEDAN

Walter explores the Californian roads in his lovingly restored Alfa Romeo Alfetta Sport Sedan while reminiscing about how the tight-knit Alfa community enables him to follow his passion, help out with parts and knowledge and makes his 'dreams come true'.

Ep.7 - THE BACPAC

Amy has a more minimalist approach to her Toyota PickUp, using it to haul stuff, go deep into the woods and enjoy not having to fix it often.

Ep.6 - THE COUPE

Andrew and his 450SLC cruise some Southern California backroads while feeding his need for wrenching on something mechanical and talking about how it feels to drive as if you're 'in a movie'.

Elias and his beloved 996 go wild on a dry lake bed while talking about how cars can bridge the gap between generations and happiness sometimes is nothing more than some dust and dirt.

Ep.3 - ZLUTS

Andy and Ares and their love for the 240Z led them to open their own shop, RS Speed Design in Glendale, CA. Their love for classic Datsuns occupies their mind almost 24/7, approaching each build from both a conceptual as well as a philosophical standpoint.

Clarisse and her 280ZX, called The Datsun, explore Southern Californias mountain pass roads as she defines her role as a woman in a male-centric environment.
