Here’s to the memori The last five years of my life have given me a lot of perspective on the European car scene. From getting my first Audi (hooked for life thanks to her), making some good friends at my first DATR, and hanging out with a solid group of guys and gals at DubCenter. Beyond being an enthusiast, there are the good days I’ve had during my time at EuroBerge; photos taken, articles written, friends made, and cars seen. The one thing I keep coming back to, the one thing that sticks out more than anything in my mind isn’t the cars, photos, shows, or fun roads. It’s the people. You see, here in Colorado, we don’t have a huge car scene. Let’s face it; we’re a little weak on that end. We don’t have a thousand cars rolling to a show, a major auto manufacturer headquartered here and our weather sucks three quarters of the year. But what we are rich in is character. The people. The life. The friends. The camaraderie. That’s what makes this car scene, this collection of random geeks, nerds, jocks, guidos, girls, guys, nice guys and assholes so great. No matter what drama or bullshit came about, we usually ended up in the same parking lot somewhere in Denver standing around our cars for three hours talking about the ricer that just did a fly-by. And that’s how EuroBerge came about. In the beginning, we started out as two guys with absolutely no idea what we were doing putting what we thought was a dent-less E30 M3 on the cover (thank you M3 owners for pointing out that un-related fact) of a ten-page collection of my photographs and Richard and our close friend’s writing. Little did we know what this dinky little publication would eventually become. Thanks to the people, to you the reader skimming this page right now, we are somewhat of a national publication reaching 9,000 people a month and still absolutely no idea what we’re doing. So, thank you to all of the people who supported us, read our magazine, let us photograph your car and worked with us. You have made the magazine what it is today. You’ve made me what I am today. The friends I’ve made through the magazine are irreplaceable, and the experiences and memories I’ve made are among the best I’ve ever had to this day. But, today marks the day that I must say goodbye to EuroBerge magazine. College, work, and an upcoming marriage to the most amazing girl I could imagine unfortunately mean that I must condense my priorities and focus my life to make it through the next year. The rest of the staff here will continue to provide the high-quality work that you’re all used to without any interruption. I will still be around, and will try to make the rounds. You all should know how to reach me, and my email is permanently attached to my hip. So, here’s to the friends, relationships, memories, and good times that are yet to be had.

DADDY'S BACK The Fiat 500 Returns

That’s right! The daddy of all city cars has returned to the USA. Fortunately for us the new Fiat 500 has kept the same cute and funky x-factor but has become all sturdy and modern on the inside. For a test of this new car I decided to break it in in LoDo and Larimer square. The natural habitat of Smart Cars, and MINIs, soon to be the stomping ground of the 500. The Fiat is a nice balance of both the MINI and the Smart. For example it has rear seats, which are a bonus when you’re bashing around with some friends for a short trip. It also is six inches shorter than the MINI, making parking a breeze. The 500 is considerably cheaper then the MINI as well while offering the same sense of fashion and European cuteness. So quick sum up; its cute, fun and fits perfect downtown! This car is perfect for downtown Denver. The throttle response is quick and you can merge in and out of traffic with ease. The six speed automatic, or Auto-Stick transmission, is pretty good compared to most city cars in this range. It shifts quickly and will let you have full control over gear choice (except when you get over ambitious and try to shift to 1st while going 40). The 5-speed manual transmission comes as standard on most models and gets up to 38mpg. Given that the clutch is a little light and the gear changes aren’t as locked in as I’m used to I felt it a bit lacking in the sport department. Another note about the handling is the body roll. It’s quite amusing to be honest and really discourages you from being overly sporty with the vehicle. Overall the sport is more of a trim level than an actual performance upgrade. It’s just enough to keep you smiling and just enough roll to remind you that this car wasn’t really built for canyon bashing. But it is perfect for the city life. The light steering makes parking in LoDo unbelievably easy. Even I was able to chuck it into the tiniest of spots and I grew up on the flat east plains of Colorado where parallel parking is more of a legend than anything else. The engine noise is fun and spunky, not a complaining rattle that you get on most

1.4 litre engines. The 500c is definitely a shout out from the Italian design committee, the roof can come in a maroon canvas that looks exactly like what you imagine every car looks like in Italy. However, it must say something about how tall the Fiat 500 drivers are. For me, the roof folded right where my rear view mirror reflects. Unfortunately I think that says more about my height than the build and design of the car. Everything in this car is well put together and thought out. Perhaps the Germans can take a few notes from Fiat, It’s still a fun European car, but the cup-holders are not above the radio or in some unusable nook under an armrest. The buttons on the dash and on the steering wheel where sturdy, even the wiper knob was heavy and felt like it would last a thousand years. On the sport model, the good is in the details. It offers slightly more of a sporty driving position, and every piece of trim is just better. The Auto-Stick knob is a polished black and the perforated leather steering wheel makes you feel like you’re driving a much more expensive car. The funky retro body continues on the interior with a pseudo metal dash painted to match the exterior and all of the climate control buttons are understated, clean and retro-tastic. The Italian classic is an absolute fashion item. It may be practical in the city, peppy and great value. But when you get right down to it, the looks are what sell this car. In less than five minutes of parking the cars there was a swarm of at least a dozen people all peering into the cabbie or exploring the classy design of the 500sport. Parked on Larimer square the cars really showed their true colors. The pure Italian design and the absolute cute appeal of the cars absolutely drew me in. That’s what I absolutely adore about this car. It doesn’t pretend to be a canyon crasher or a family car. It’s a European city car that’s finally come back to America! Now I just have to hold my breath until they decide to bring the Fiat 500 Abarth.

Pikes Peak is a national icon. Sitting no more than 10 miles from Colorado Springs, Colorado and topping 14,110 feet above the sea level, it’s where America the Beautiful was written and Nikola Tesla conducted his elctricity experiments. It’s easily one of the most easily accessible 14ers in Colorado with a long, winding road running up the side. 89 years ago, several petrol heads with a serious death wish decided to block off a 12.42-mile section with 156 turns rising 4,720 vertical feet and have a race on it. That same race is still being run as the modern day Pikes Peak International Hill Climb.
Today’s race pulls in a few more visitors and cars however. Over 36,000 fans were estimated to have turned up this year watching competitors from more than three continents and tens of countries with almost every car imaginable running the race. Electric cars, motorcycles, atvs, sidecars, vintage cars, openwheel racers, even a Dacia Duster showed up to race this year. And the racers are no less varied in their notoriety, character, and international flavor. Jeff Zwart came in his GT2 driven crosscountry supported by Porsche. Rod and Rhys Millen both raced Hyundais to the top. Monster Tajima showed everyone how it’s done in his Suzuki, and of course Colorado’s own Savannah Rickli rocked the mountain once again in her MINI Cooper S. The road itself changed a bit this year as well. More pavement was added (per the normal) which accelerated drivers significantly down the long straights near the top. This extra pavement was very helpful for all the drivers, but most of all Tajima Monster. Anyone who follows the Peak knows that Tajima has been attempting to break the 10-minute barrier since he broke Rod Millen’s record in 2007. The man is a machine. He knows the mountain perhaps better than any other driver and this year it paid off. Among all the rumors that he might actually break the 10-minute barrier, he did with a time of 9:51! Colorado’s own Savannah Rickli garnered her own success this year in her class. While finishing 7th in her class, filled with 700hp Camaros and Jezz Zwart in his GT2 not to mention a Seat Cupra Cup no less, she shaved a clean 34 seconds off her time in her MINI. The Pikes Peak International Hill Climb offers a variety of thrills, hopes, and dreams all rolled into one 12.42-mile stretch up the side of a mountain. We highly recommend that you check out next year’s race and see a Dacia Duster finish a race!

Love
Passion, the formal definition states, is a strong and barely controllable emotion. This emotion enables thousands of people to express their feelings, opinions, and attitude to others through their vehicle. I am no exception from the others. My passion may exceed some, but other automotive enthusiasts far surpass my fondness for cars. Not just modifications, but the pure beauty of each and every line on a vehicle is intoxicating to me. Specific events and experiences have lead me to become very passionate for European cars. My father first introduced me to the world of European engineering at the age of four. My father’s 1974 JPS Lotus Europa captivated my seemingly short attention span, especially when I heard it’s twin cam V6 engine turn over and witnessed the reaction it got out of my family. Even though the short sprints that stretched the legs of the Lotus were rare, they evoked joy and were worth the wait. It spent more time in the garage than gracing the open road with its stunning 1970’s lines, I gained an appreciation for fast, aesthetically appealing machines. These sporadic opportunities caused a chain reaction in my life, that lead me to seek out experiences that immersed me in car culture and deepened my infatuation for European brilliance. This passion for cars sat dormant in my heart until I was old enough to legally drive and pursue my dream car. The BMW E46 M3 has been quoted to be the most refined cross between basic functionality and track annihilator. I first stepped foot into this “Ultimate Driving Machine” shortly after my eighteenth birthday. This second domino has caused me to experience almost every emotion known to man throughout the past five years. My passion took hold and the modifications or “mod bug” began. First, track school, along with a few new parts, helped initiate the first step in creating my own opinion of European cars. My passion was fueled by part after part, slowly turning my M3 into a lean, mean, track - demolishing machine. Even though the aftermarket parts fulfilled my yearning for speed, it was the simple, yet elegant and s leek lines that always sustain my passion for European design. From BMW to Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin to Ferrari, and Maserati to Fiat, every automaker captures their interpretation of elegance and class, while maintaining the vigor for speed and innovation. Behind every successful automaker there is a cult following that eats, breaths, and lives passionately for every new vehicle manufactured. My personal obsession has grown and evolved throughout the years from drooling over bright red Ferraris when I was younger, to now BMW and their M division. BMW has fulfilled enthusiast’s interest for the true essence of the “Ultimate Driving Machine” with the new M3 and 1M. Both the M3 and 1M, in my opinion, are true expressions of heart, soul and passion. My passion for Europeans cars and cars in general might border on obsession to some; to me it’s the ultimate expression of my views not only on cars but also on the world itself. To me the heart and soul of a car captures my attention and what entices my passion is the “X factor”. This behind the scenes feature is what creates a following, an obsession, and ultimately a passion.

Wuste

When most people hear Las Vegas spoken of they think of the glittery lights and major attractions of the Strip. But when a European car enthusiast hears Las Vegas they think of one thing and one thing only: Wuste, a Friday through Sunday affair of European cars and partying. Bring together a bunch of hard partying Euro enthusiasts and Vegas and the atmosphere is just right for a weekend that is one to be remembered for the ages. 2011 brought the fifth anniversary of Wuste, and a bigger line up than had ever been seen before, especially with Volkswagen of America making their first ever appearance at the event. This year, Colorado Euro owners made their biggest showing of all time with thirty cars making the 750 mile trek west to the city that never sleeps. For the Colorado contingent, the journey to Las Vegas started bright and early on June 2nd, 2011 in Lakewood, CO with perhaps the best part of the weekend just a couple of hours west, Glenwood Canyon. Nothing speaks to the owner a of European car like the ability to do some canyon carving with twenty plus other cars on some of the best twisty roads the country has to offer.

After this short little jaunt and another ten hours on the road the Colorado caravan made their way safely, minus a couple of small issues, into Las Vegas and the host hotel, Boulder Station. Thus starts the weekend long party of a European car show in Las Vegas. The Wuste festivities started off with the unofficial get together Thursday night at an InN-Out Burger where about thirty cars from all over the western United States who made the trip a day early had the chance to mingle and grab a bite to eat. Friday saw the vast majority of the cars show up throughout the early afternoon quickly filling up the top levels of the parking garage. Once everyone got settled in, the true party started with official kickoff party at the hotel pool where the music was blasting the latest and greatest hits and the guests were having a grand time before hitting the Strip later in the night. For those that did not venture to the strip there were parties to be found throughout the parking garage and hotel keeping the tradition of Euro owners being a hard partying group. Saturday morning brought the Mt. Charleston Cruise, one of the traditions of Wuste. With a nice leisurely drive up some of

the best twisty roads Las Vegas has to offer, those who didn’t party too hard the night before had a chance to enjoy the cool temperatures and great views before turning back and getting their cars prepped for the show and shine. Saturday afternoon brought about the main reason everyone made the journey to Las Vegas, the show and shine. The sponsors are owed a huge thanks for showing their support for such a huge show that without them Wuste would not have the chance to continually grow each year. This year’s lineup included such companies and Unitronic Chipped (the title sponsor), Adam’s Rotors, Rotiform, Bluewater Performance, 034 Motorsports, OEMPlus and Intergrated Engineering just to name a few. But the sponsor that stole the show was Volkswagen of America. VWoA made their first ever appearance at Wuste and made a big impression by having three new models from their lineup available for display: the new Passat, Bettle, Golf R, Jetta and a race prepped GTI, all of which drew large crowds throughout the day. Sunday morning brought about the award ceremony, and one last chance to party hard
before everyone went their separate ways and headed home,closing out yet another awesome weekend in the City of Sin. New friends and great memories were made, old friendships revisited and one of the best European car shows in the country was survived by all who were in attendance. The only thing left to do for the Colorado contingency was to rest up and get ready for the drive home thus closing out another weekend of cars and good times with great friends. Make sure to mark off your calendars now so you can make it to Wuste 2012 and enjoy one of the best shows in the country!

UPWARDS COLORADO

Mt Evans, rising up above the clouds to an amazing 14,265 feet, currently has the highest paved road in the world. It’s ease of access from the front range has always made it a popular road for tourists, athletes, and even the test cars for VW and Audi. On this early morning though, the road to the top would be graced with a small group of Euro enthusiasts, heading for what I consider to be the most amazing spectacle to behold in Colorado In the early hours of July 18th, a small group of 16 cars met up at a parking lot outside the mountains, braving the very early hours to join the caravan to the top of the mountain for this experience. We all knew it wasn’t just the thought of watching the sunrise, but doing so after driving our favorite cars up a windy road with a group of like minded individuals. The variety of cars in the lot varied from old to new, made up mainly by Audis, BWs, and VWs. Some had rust, some had temp tags, but they were all filled with anxious drivers wanting to hit the road to the top of Mt Evans for the sunrise. As a special treat to all the drivers, we arranged with Lotus to have their new Evora driving to the top with us. Nothing fills an enthusiast’s heart more than seeing such a variety of cars on one singular drive. The drive to the entrance of the park has always been a spirited one, even with the cops all over the highways. With the roads empty of most traffic, the large caravan of cars took over the asphalt through the mountain curves and elevation changes. While normally a large group of cars in a pack attract the attention of the local fuzz, this little

drive maintained its spirit all the way to the entrance. Many people know the road up the mountain is not the best in the world, and while many could argue that Denver still has worse roads in the city, the sheer cliff to the side elevated the danger of this drive, even during the day time. The challenge for everyone was ensuring not only their own safety, but the safety of the group as we all navigated through the minefield of dips, bumps, cracks, missing road, and holes as we made our way up and up and up. And up. With the lot clear at the top, we filled in all the spots and got out to enjoy the miraculous view. The skies were clear, the sun was creeping up over the horizon, and as we sat in the car, the weather seemed perfect. Until the doors were opened and the wind struck hard. The wind was bad. Okay, it was the I have ever experienced at the top of the mountains, but from our huddle perch above the mountain, we as a group watched the sun rise over the eastern plains, the lights gracing each hill, tree, river and mountain as its rays spread over the land. From the top of the world, we could see everything. Well, not everything. But for the brief moment in the wee hours of that July morning, I stood among a group of fellow enthusiasts, newly formed friends, at the top of Mt Evans, watching what has to be one of the most astounding sun rises I have ever seen. In the end, everything that brings us together as enthusiasts, be it the cars, the drives, the racing, are pale in comparison to the spectacle we each experienced at the top of Mt. Evans.

TOOLS OF THE TRADE - Degreaser: I try and used a citrus based all-purpose cleaner, which is a safer alternative to cleaners which are acid-based - Brushes: key in engine bay details, and useful on just about every part of the car, including the interior. For engines with large plastic pieces, a wash mitt is often very useful. - Hose/spray nozzle: something with a low pressure stream setting is ideal – the key here is to avoid high pressure and let the degreaser/brushes do the cleaning - Microfiber towels/Shop-Vac: drying your engine bay after it’s cleaned up is especially important. Blowing out standing water and tough to reach places with a Shop-Vac or can of compressed air will make the job even easier. - Protectant: cleaning the engine bay is only half the battle in protecting your engine. A dressing like 303 Aerospace Protectant will keep your plastics and rubbers looking like new and easy to clean in the future. 42

Photos and Article by Brendan McDonald Engine bay detailing is often overlooked when compared to exterior detailing and interior care. Detailing your engine bay not only makes your car look brand new, but it cleans up corrosive materials which might negatively impact rubber, plastic, and metal components in the engine area. With a clean engine, your car is even more protected and show-ready. Important things before we start: avoid cleaning a hot engine. Some detailers like to warm the engine a bit, but I’ve always done it cold, achieved the same results, and not worried about cold water on hot components. Cover exposed electrical components like alternators (I like to use plastic wrap for this because it’s easy to mold around weird shaped parts), and put a towel or plastic bag over exposed air intakes/air filters. DO NOT forget to remove everything you put in the engine bay… a towel in the intake would be an extremely costly mistake. Use very low pressure and don’t go overboard with the water – your degreaser and brushes should do the work, not high pressure and a small flood. Cars manufactured before 1990 should not be exposed to direct water in the engine bay. Nowadays, computers and electrical components are often sealed and hidden from the elements – this was not always the case dur-

- Cover exposed air intakes and air filters with a plastic bag or Press-and-Seal Saran wrap. If your alternator is exposed, cover it too, but make sure it is cool to the touch… melted plastic wrap is a pain to remove.
2
- Pop the hood and remove debris from jambs and corners. Leaves and other “gifts” from Mother Nature love collecting below windshields, and it’s best to remove these before rinsing to keep them from getting drawn down into the engine bay. After cleaning up loose debris, take note of what areas are particularly dirty and will need special attention.
3
- Lightly rinse the engine, components surrounding the block, and underside of the hood. Having a bit of water to work with will let the degreaser do its job more effectively, and will remove light dust and dirt without any scrubbing necessary.

- Spray everything down with your degreaser, paying particular attention to all plastic pieces and rubber hoses. Spraying the underside of the hood will loosen dirt/dust that is likely to have sat since the car’s purchase. Finally, spray the jambs and area just below the windshield, which is usually more accessible with the hood (bonnet for some of you Euro die-hards) open.
5
- After letting the degreaser sit for a minute or two, use your brushes to reach tight areas and agitate the tougher dirt and grime. Boar’s hair brushes and brushes with nylon/plastic bristles only!
6
- Spray it all down, starting with the underside of the hood and working your way down. Go light on the water, and use a low pressure setting. Pay attention to nooks and crannies that trap water, which will most likely need to be blow out with compressed air or a Shop-Vac.
7
-Make sure all the suds are gone, and dry the easily accessible components with a regular or waffle-weave microfiber towel. . Towel off the larger areas like the underside of the hood and plastic covers
8
-Using your compressed air or ShopVac, blow dry the hard to reach areas. This step will ensure no water/degreaser is left sitting in the engine bay.
9
- Protect everything you just cleaned using a protectant/dressing. This will make things look like new and keep rubber/ plastic hoses and fittings from cracking or discoloration. Beyond that, protectant is going to make things easier to clean in the future.
10
- Remove any plastic wrap or towels you’ve used to protect electrical components and air intakes.

Hey readers, Normally here you find the calendar of coming events next and some legal information, and a beautiful final shot to tie back to the last issue. This issue though, I am going to take the space to talk to you about the future of EuroBerge. The past three years have been amazing for everyone involved with this project. We have seen growth around the world in terms of support and readership, while also maintaining our strong stance of providing quality, enthusiast driven content, covering the Colorado scene in a fun and flexible manner. And, through it all, we have driven to maintain our ad-free publication and free distribution. But the times have changed, and as we cover more and more events, the demand for content has increased. To adapt to these changes, we will be retiring the quarterly publication in favor of an online news format, delivered through the same setup we have been using for the past 6 months. What does this mean for you? Well, we as enthusiasts will be able to deliver more content in a timely manner with the new setup, as well as allowing a more stable platform for guest writers and photographers to join in on the fun. We are looking to setup all new series covering everything from detailing to racing, giving everyone perspectives to create conversation and show the deeper side of being an enthusiast. We will be working hard to deliver more photos from each event, as well as more photoshoots of all sorts of amazing European vehicles found in Colorado. We all know that change is hard, but this is one that we feel you will all benefit from on a more immediate basis. I welcome all feedback in regards to this, and will respond accordingly to each comment as they come in. My e-mail is Richard.Melick@euroberge.com.
