Hagerty embarked on a wild road trip with a Europe P version BMW E36 M3, only to discover it was a lemon. However, the journey led them to the legendary John Pierre Kramer's workshop in Germany, where automotive magic happens. Kramer's team showcased their prowess by completely rebuilding a Diablo, crafting a custom exhaust for that quintessential Italian sound. The importance of sound in cars was emphasized, with Hagerty nodding to Kramer's expertise in creating unique exhaust notes for various models.
Kramer's ambitious projects didn't stop there - from transforming a Mustang into an SSC 450 to planning a Mercedes build with a V12 twin-turbo engine, his creativity knew no bounds. The discussion delved into the intricacies of modifying cars, highlighting the significance of customizations like exhaust systems in enhancing driving experiences. Hagerty marveled at Kramer's dedication to perfection, evident in his meticulous attention to detail and innovative ideas that push the boundaries of automotive design.
The conversation shifted to future projects, including a Nissan GTR drift build and workshop expansions that would involve visitors in the filming process. Kramer's relentless pursuit of excellence was evident in his decision to halt work on customer cars, focusing instead on specific modifications like suspension and wheels. The admiration for Kramer's continuous quest for automotive greatness was palpable, with Hagerty acknowledging the transformative impact of his work on the automotive landscape.
