Got turbo?
So I own 2 cars made in Mexico, 1 car made in Germany, and 1 car made in the US.
The funny thing is they are all the same brand.

That BMW is pure beauty. That Corvette is a horribly disgusting install. But it fits since Corvettes are just a brute force car and I think the engine bay conveys that quite well. I think my favorite part is he kept the A/C.
