One thing not uncommon among exclusive cars owners is the interest for watches.<\/p>\n

This also reflected in IAMS 2019. Garmin, a brand well known in car navigation exhibited their most exclusive watches, like this \u201cdriver\u201d from their Marq collection.<\/p>\n

This smartwatch is specially designed for the race enthusiast and has more than 250 of the world’s circuit build in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new section added to this year edition is; The Car Catwalk! One by one, these exclusive cars would drive up the Catwalk and shine for a moment. Not only your eyes were triggered by these beauties but the sound of those engines was from another world and the public loved it.<\/p>\n

The Car Catwalk was hosted by Gert-Jan Hennipman (One of the most craziest hosts ever seen) provided the public with some inside information about the car owners, history, price, etc. Supercars always get the most attention, like this Bugatti!But this Toyota Supra got the audience talking for hours, the revving sound coming out this car was unbelievably loud!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides the Car Catwalk, there were stands from several tuners and parts dealers. One of them is Novitec GmbH & Co KG, exhibiting their first customized\/tuned Ferarri Portofino. Only a week ago this Portofino was still at the Novitec shop in Stetten Germany. Making this their world premiere!<\/p>\n

This car generates 600 Horsepower using a 3.9-liter twin-turbocharged V-8. So what improvement could you need? Well, Novitec added another eighty-six horsepower, improved aerodynamic, while giving the car a more aggressive look.<\/p>\n

They also added an ultra-light Inconel exhaust system and some Novitec 22\u201d rims. This package will add another twenty-five thousand euros on top of this \u20ac 240.000 (new price) Portofino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To give the audience the ultimate adrenaline kick, Exhibition Hall 8 was converted into a Live Arena. The team from Bleekenmolen Race Planet came to Amsterdam with their traditional Porsche\u2019s, McLarens, Mercedes-AMG and Ford Mustangs for drift demos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

IAMS is all about unique cars! One of them is this Italdesign ZeroUno. The ZeroUno, which means \u201cZero One\u201d is a 1.5 million euros two-seater carbon fiber car which was revealed by Italdesign Automobili Speciali in 2017.<\/p>\n
