		The Drive: Custom Cars and Their Builders

Better than the original and a long way from factories and assembly lines. Handcrafted, radical, and subversive, these custom cars are designed and made by a small number of specialists from around the globe who share a common goal: to create the ultimate driving machine.
From early hot rods and lowriders to modern tuning: this book presents a huge variety of unique cars from around the world. Automobiles have been tuned, restored, and rebuilt for years, but whether made for leisurely cruising or peak performance today s custom machines are more interesting than ever before. After exploring custom motorcycles in The Ride and The Ride 2nd Gear, it s high time to focus on the fourwheeled scene.
The Drive showcases the diversity and reach of this custom movement. Each car is utterly unique; each builder a true personality. Passion and craft meet in their workshops in North America, Europe, and Asia. The resulting vehicles and this book are for anyone for whom a car is so much more than just a way to get around."

"Readers who aren't all that interested in the auto world will be surprised and thrilled by the incredibly comprehensive content within because rather than just being for rev-heads, this book has been thoughtfully put together to touch on history, design and (of course) the characters who obsess over their cars."

"Gestalten publishes a car bible for the real-life fast and furious . . . "The Drive" is the sort of book Vin Diesel has on his coffee table. Each page is another sumptuous, tricked-out racer, plucked from the entire pantheon of dream cars."

This book has beautiful photos and descriptions. Every page is full of very well taken photographs (I'm a photographer, and I approve!), with all the descriptions you could ask for, without clogging pages full of text. On top of that, its well made with smooth, clearly high-quality pages. The cover is matte and soft. It's heavy and makes the perfect coffee table book. My fiancè loves it.

Totally worth the money. Great photographs and writing. My best coffee table book!

Awesome mix of styles & vehicles featured with some stunning images.
Only fault is some poor grammar in the text, possibly due to English language translation?

This book captures the passion of these customizers. So much so that I am moved to do someting glorious to my spare 2000 Merc SLK.

I'm bias, since I'm in the book... Love it, great book, very well put together. -Jon
