3-0 out of 5 stars The only BMW 6 series book worrth buying.
This book is the most up to date one on the market.The only problem is that it tends to focus on alot of the european models.The BMW Buyers Guide from Fred Larimer is more useful on US models.

2-0 out of 5 stars Amateurish drivel
Having worked on a number of 6-Series cars, I can confidently say that this book is average at best, toilet paper at worst.4-0 out of 5 stars Thorough
Given the fact that this is the only book available (to my knowledge) on the great BMW E24 6 series, it is a must for fans. Apart from that, there is heaps of info on all the different models and on BMW history. Jeremy Walton has certainly his share of research. There are just a few things that I would like to have read about/improved, but these things are just minor things. Some topics are not covered in chronological order, which makes it a bit confusing. The good things about this book is that is covers cars manufactured for both the American market as well as the European market (although I get the impression that mr. Walton focusses more on the English market), so it is a good read both sides of the atlantic. Bearing that in mind, most numbers are given in American and European units. Good stuff! ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars aKillermusclecarbook
An absolute Killer muscle car book....too bad it's out of print. i was lucky enough to find about 8 copies at a used book store, but my friends quickly snatched them up.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best muscle car picture books ever.
As a coffee table reference work, this book stands head and shoulders above the rest.The depth of coverage, the use of factory photos as well as current state of the art restoration examples and vintage racing picsmake for an interesting read.Although a very small portion of the writteninformation is not completely accurate, this is one book that any and alltrue muscle car fans should have in their library. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A must-have for the serious model car collector
Collectors of model cars prefer to spend their spare cash on model cars, not books on model cars. I can understand their priorities, but in the case of Ford in Miniature they really ought to reserve a few dollars for an exceptional book that puts an important part of their hobby in perspective - 1:43rd scale handbuilt models of classic American cars. Randall Olson displays a knowledge of Fords and handbuilt models like few others with a stunning array of color pictures and loads of inside information. His book will surely become a standard work for the model collector - at least for that discerning collector who is willing to spend a little on books on model cars, and not just model cars.

Is there a better guidebook for Jeep lovers?I don't think so.He's got every model, every option, every color and accessory and everything here, all the way back to the Willys and military days.
5-0 out of 5 stars "Jeep" by Jim Allen
It's 20 below outside and the snow is drifted over the door to the garage I can't get to where my jeep is stored. I'm going through Jeep withdrawal. The mail comes and I'm saved. "Jeep" By Jim Allen has arrived in the mail. Filled with the beautiful photos and expert discussion of the history and details that makes my Jeep more than just transportation. This book is for every jeep junkie. Even without Jim's expert commentary on the breed this book would be worth buying just for the high quality photos and collected documentation. If you haven't already added this book to your growing Jim Allen collection you're missing out.5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Book AND solid Research
Noted Jeep scholar and photographer, Jim Allen, has assembled a lavish, detailed, and engaging story. Being a longtime student of the brand, Allen has amassed a wealth of previously unseen historic images which he uses in support of beautiful images of perfectly restored models. Readers will recognize a number of Military Vehicle Preservation Association National Convention winners as well as some of the rarest examples of both civilian and military models in private collections.

1-0 out of 5 stars Save Your Money
The cover states that there are forwards written by Dick Brannan, Arnie Beswick and Hayden Proffitt. My copy contained no forwards of any kind. Actual facts and research are words that can only be used loosely to describe this book. Most of it reads like a compilation of material pulled together from previously published sources, and written poorly. I was anticipating this book, but once I knew who the authors were (read some reviews on their other titles), my expectations were lowered accordingly. I am a factory lightweight fan, but can't recommend this book for even a novice who is interested them. Wait until it's in a bargain bin if you have to have it.

1-0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware
Buyer Beware! I waited 2 months for this and it's not the same book represented in the picture. The book I received is entitled "Extreme Muscle Cars: The Factory Lightweight Legacy" and the cover shows a 60's Plymouth dubbed "Honkin' Hemi". It's mostly "lightweight" drag cars. I never would have purchased this version of the book had it been represented on Amazon. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars A Great Look Back at the History of Speed
Basically any car enthusiast knows what Bonneville is. The legendary land of impossible speed and unlimited imagination that has captured all of our curiosity at one time or another has been captured by Motorbooks Classic. This is a place where the records were made to be broken and limits are pushed on a regular basis. The aura that surrounds this location has been captured nicely in this excellent look back at the rich history of the track. There are over 175 photos included in the book and all are of high quality and tell their own individual story. The collection of stories, historical data and timeless memories is very impressive as can be expected from Motorbook Classics. Bonneville: The Fastest Place on Earth is one of the most complete and fulfilling books to ever cover the famous Bonneville Salt Flats and it gives us all an explanation as to why we can't drive 55. ...
