Eurowerks 5 -- June 25th 2011, Minneapolis, MN

[mimalmo]

Here it is, the largest euro-only car show in the midwest. If you read Performance BMW, eurotuner or any of the other major euro car magazines, you've probably seen the show highlighted. This is my formal invite to all ZHP Mafia members to attend Eurowerks. We have people come from all over the country for this show. Some heavily modded cars and some are very stock (my first year my car was totally stock).

Register here:

(E46 is in the 2000's class)


Video from last year (it rained but we still had hundreds of cars show up). Bonus points if you can spot my car in the first 15 seconds (the shots of my car later in the video are easy to see).

Please shoot me a message if you have questions regarding this event such as meeting up before the show (there's usually a big BMW roll-in), hotels, what to bring, etc. Additionally, I'll keep an eye on this thread if any questions are posted here.

That looks really cool. I used to live 2 blocks from the old Grain Belt Brewery. What a great old building and a perfect backdrop for some sexy Euros.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

I wish this was closer to me. I'd be there.

Registration is filling up fast. Get registered ASAP if you were considering attending. Once registration is closed, that's it. In years past, the show has sold out several weeks before the actual event. It looks like this year will be no exception.

[mimalmo]

Pre-registration for Eurowerks V is now closed, there will be limited spots available day of on a first come, first served basis. Day of registration opens at 2PM, see you then!

[mimalmo]

Bump for tomorrow.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Eli, do we have any pictures of this event?

[mimalmo]

I was busy doing some category judging so I didn't get to take any pics but there are a ton out there. I'll post up some links and other people's pics tonight or tomorrow.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Cool. Thanks, Eli.

[billschusteriv]

In for links to pics. Looks like last year's event was killer, excited to see this year's.

[mimalmo]

These aren't my pics so the links may go dead after a while.

It's a van...a truck...and it's powered by a Subaru boxer engine.

Sheef's E46 is for sale. He wants $16k. It has an AA Superchager at around 400hp and walks away from stock M3's.

This thing had an S5x swap and a turbo setup. I drove behind him briefly after the show. It's VERY fast.

There's more cars that were there. Let me know if you're looking for anything specific and I'll look for a pic.

Thanks for the pics Eli. The motto here is "Low and neg camber"

[mimalmo]

While there was certainly a lot of cars like that, there were also a ton of cleanly modded cars, track prepped cars, etc. About half of the Porsches were 100% stock because they were GT2's, classics, etc. A Ferrari had two mods, that 135i came directly from the dealership and a number of classic BMW's, Triumphs, Fiats, etc. Everybody just seems to take pictures of the heavily modded cars.
