2016 is all Supercars, Muscle Cars & Epic Videos!

Wakey wakey! Yo folks, think it's time for me to wake up from this hibernation, got some seriously big plans for 2016!

Just booked trips to, let's see, Geneva Motor Show, Paris, Milan / Cars & Coffee Brescia, Cannes / Monaco just to begin with...


These are mainly Supercar locations, but I have just as, if not even bigger Muscle Car plans for this year. I'm gonna attend muscle car events (as soon as they start in the Spring) almost weekly filming all new hot video footage & more for ya!

All and all, Jamboolio's year 2016 will be so much more epic than 2015 ever was!! Remember to stay tuned and SUBSCRIBE‬!

Marbella / Buerto Banus Supercars and what's next!

What's up! Visited a while ago Spain. A week in Puerto Banus and Marbella was a blast, even though car wise it wasn't the craziest season quite yet, plus it was raining a lot.
I still managed to film some awesome cars, but because all the water pouring down on certain days, I decided to check out some of the hottest supercar dealerships in the area, and there sure is a lot of them.
Besides all the epic supercars, American muscle cars were pretty well represented in these showrooms as well (Shelby Cobra 427, Eleanor Mustang Convertible, Vipers etc.) Check out the video below to see more about them.

The best place for carspotting in that part of Spain is probably the yacht harbour in Puerto Banus, that's where I did most of my filming. But like always I'll let the pics and videos do most of the talking, so enjoy these following clips.
Now I'm off, as I'm heading tomorrow to Cannes and Monaco for the next two and a half weeks to do a little (A LOT!!) of supercar spotting and more, so stay tuned for all new videos on my Youtube Channel. Oh and I'll be back just in time to catch all the epic muscle cars in the next Helsinki Cruising Night event in early June, see ya soon!

Follow Jamboolio also on Facebook and Twitter, I will be posting a lot of car stuff in the upcoming weeks, thanks!

Jamboolio's Plans for 2015

How's it going you car nutters!

I thought I'd talk a little bit about some of the plans I've made for this year, concerning filming some awesome Muscle Cars, Supercars and Hypercars.

So if I get straight to business, there will be the usual 'Helsinki Cruising Night' monthly events with many many many amazing American muscle cars and classics. Also many other cruising events and meets throughout the year are marked in the calender, so that means once again filming some of the loudest and cleanest V8 monsters, old and new, plus burnouts and such.

Last years first bigger trip was to the great Geneva Motor Show, but I'll skip that one this year. Still gonna have my eyes on supercars though, as I'll head instead early in the spring to Marbella, SpainPuerto Banús to be precise.

And the main theme of that trip, along with filming some amazing supercars and hypercars, which there are a lot as I understand, is to go out and spot that one and only Lamborghini Aventador J (oh and there really is only one of them in existence!!), which belongs to this ultra rich Lamborghini collector who lives, yes you guessed it, in Marbella!

Okay so after that it's great to check out again some muscle car events, which there really are a lot here in Finland, but also one of my favorite events of the summer is a standing mile run track event with both supercars and muscle cars, which is held twice a year.

One of the biggest trips in 2015 will be the one to Cannes and Monaco in May. Two and a half weeks time there will include Cannes Film Festival, Monaco F1 Grand Prix weekend, huge stars and celebrities, and naturally epic supercars and hypercars to spot.

The only downside is that I'm gonna have to skip the start of the Gumball 3000 rally, which will take place in Stockholm, Sweden the same time I'm at the French Rivera, but I'm pretty sure it'll be worth it (just check out the videos from last year below), even though I think the Gumball rally is awesome.

Lastly I wanna talk about my plan (and this is at the moment just a plan, nothing's sure yet) how it would be great to end the year 2015.
A friend of Jamboolio's who happens to own the SIX-5 Corvette (the fastest C2 Corvette in the world, which has been mentioned in this blog before) is taking that very same 200mph Corvette to the USA in the fall for the famous Texas Mile Run (and other events too).

Video: SIX-5: World's Fastest C2 Corvette - onboard ride on track! | +1000 HP |

The idea is that I would be filming some of the SIX-5 Vette's adventures in the US, but also other amazing cars and things at the Texas Mile, the SEMA Show, check out the carscene in Los Angeles, Las Vegas and a lot more!
But as I said nothing is certain about this US trip yet, but we'll see...



All these events and trips mentioned here are just a fraction of places where I will be filming all new carvideos this year, so hope you'll stay tuned, as there will be tons of new footage coming to my Youtube Channel, photos to this blog and Facebook, and so much more. So in another words I think the year 2015 is going to be a pretty good one!

Yet another ride in a +1000 HP Chevy Corvette!


I've seen and filmed a bunch of awesome high power custom-built Chevy Corvettes this year, like the SIX-5, the fastest street legal C2 Corvette in the world, +200mph classic that I got to experience onboard on a track, and there's a few other Corvettes as well.
But the Corvette I wanna talk about now is this supercharged C5 that I got the chance to film exclusively here in Finland.


The beast in question is yet another crazy track machine producing over 1000 HP, plus it also has a NOS kit (Nitrous Oxide System) installed as well.
This car lets you know it means business just the way it sounds. It's got a loud Borla Exhaust system fitted in, and there's the supercharger whine, and with that shiny orange paint and a few decals on the exterior it sure won't go unnoticed!
The owner is a very nice guy, and he took me on a little spin around town with the car, and man you really don't need to be on a highway or on a track to feel all that power that V8 engine produces! Just a gentle push on the pedal and you feel things in your stomach, and when you add all the loud sounds this car makes, to drive it just around a block or two is enough to be an amazing experience!


You can hear the loud V8 sounds this car makes, check out the onboard ride and see more specs about this car in the video below or at the JAMBOOLIO Youtube Channel, thanks!

I wanna thank TOMAS, the owner of this Chevrolet Corvette C5, it's awesome!

Here's also the onboard ride in the SIX-5 C2 Corvette I mentioned earlier, check it out!

Carspotting Through a Lens...

Hey ya'll, how's it going? Haven't posted any car stuff in a while on this blog (whole different story with the carvideos, check 'em out HERE) so I had an idea, that since I'm not on Instagram (yeah that's right) but I often snap a photo or two of the SUPERCARS and/or MUSCLE CARS that I spot, with these pics I'd show (some) of the coolest cars of recent months that I've come across...

Sound any good? Well anyways, here goes...

Four LaFerrari's in one week!

Just spent two weeks in the French Riviera, Monaco and Cannes to be precise, spotting supercars, hypercars, even muscle cars, and getting a lot of awesome footage filmed for my Youtube Channel.
One of the most craziest car related things on this trip was that within one weeks time I had spotted (and filmed) FOUR (4!!) different Ferrari LaFerrari hybrid hypercars.
That's a pretty good number since only 499 units will be ever built with an over €1 million price tag!
All cars I saw were Rosso Corsa red, all were registered to different countries, and all were just mighty awesome!

LaFerrari parked next to Ferrari 458 Speciale at the Monaco Casino Square

As you propably know, LaFerrari is the most powerful Ferrari roadcar ever with its 6.3-litre V12 engine + electric drive producing 963 HP and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft) of torque. Top speed is over 350 km/h (217 mph), and 100 km/h (62 mph) is reached in under three seconds.

Rear

All LaFerrari's I encountered were Rosso Corsa red, two had silver OEM rims, two with all black OEM rims. The cars were registered to Monaco, France, Luxembourg and Andorra.

Within two weeks time in the Riviera and after seeing four LaFerraris, EnzoKoenigsegg Agera R, Pagani Huayra and Zonda, and tons of other supercars, didn't see not even one McLaren P1 nor Porsche 918, whatever that means... ;)

Automotive Friday

Had a great time last weekend in Helsinki, and as you might have guessed it, trip there was pretty much all about cars. Not entirely, but for the most parts; cars, cars, cars.
First it was time for the annual American Car Show / Tuning Car Show. After that some carspotting in the centre Helsinki, and in the evening loud V8 engines and smoky burnouts at the Vantaa Cruising (aka Vanda Cruising).
But like before, rather than me blabbering about these things too much, it's better to show you some photos / videos, enjoy!

Had a great chat with Mika Kosola from the Team Black Bull Power! We talked about last years Gumball 3000 rally which they drove with a 1967 Shelby GT500 Mustang (check out the video below), and about their plans for this years Gumball. Thanks Mika, hope to see you soon!

American Car Show and more...

Thought I'd remind all you Muscle Car fans, it's time to check out the annual American Car Show (18-21st April) in Helsinki next Friday, and if you're anywhere near that place, you'll definitely wanna head to Vantaa in the Friday evening too, there's the Vanda Cruising with all the loud V8's and smoky burnouts happening also...

Here's a few clips from previous years:

Here's what's coming up

So after the Geneva trip it's time to start getting ready for probably the biggest Jamboolio's carspotting trip of this year, which is full TWO WEEKS in Cannes and Monaco in May.
I did this same thing last year, head to Cannes right for the start of Cannes Film Festival, which means that the town is full of the most amazing supercars and hypercars, day and night naturally!







VIDEO: Cannes 2013 Supercar Nights


Monaco is right next to Cannes, so it's easy to make multiple trips there, and as you'll probably know that place is always packed with stunning cars. Plus there'll be the F1 Grand Prix weekend, which draws a lot of more Supercars to town, and I'll be there to film all of them.




VIDEO: Monaco Supercar Spotting 2013


As for the Muscle Car fans, things are looking good also. You see the fantastic Helsinki Cruising Night events start again in April, and that means once a month the Market Square in Helsinki will be packed with all kinds of American V8 and V10 muscle cars, classics and brand new, all in one place.

There's also one very special event here in Finland at the end of June, that I'll be attending, and will get very exclusive footage from, and that is the Unlimited Racing event in Lappeenranta, Finland from June 27 to 29.

The organizer has granted me limitless access to this event for full three days, that means Supercars, Muscle Cars, on-board rides etc. etc. So a big thank you to Daniel from D1 Ultimate Racing! A lot of footage coming from there in the summer.

For more info and tickets to this fantastic event, click here: http://www.unlimitedracing.fi/etusivu/


Many more events and happenings coming up before and after these that I've just mentioned, but more of them later...

BMW - Geneva 2014

Before getting to all the Supercars and Hypercars of the Geneva Motor Show 2014, I wanna talk a little about BMW, since they had one of the largest and most striking stands at the show.

BMW 435i Gran Coupe

BMW officially unveiled a few 2015 models, like the 4-Series Gran Coupe (435i) and the M235i, also the new M3 F80 and M4 F82 models were seen out in public in Europe for the first time.
Naturally the plug-in hybrid models, the i8 and i3 were there, and I have to say that seeing the i8 for the first time live with my own eyes was a very positive thing, you can count me as a fan from now on, it looks absolutely fantastic!

BMW i8

Think I'll let the photos do the rest of the talking, but a few little things first;
a couple of days after visiting the Motor Show, out of the blue I spotted an 4-Series Gran Coupe (car they just had unveiled at the show!) at one of the hotels in centre Geneva. It was a 428i with the M Sport package and in Estoril Blue color.
Think it's BMW's own test- or press car, but quite a nice surprise to spot one of the first 4er Gran Coupes on the road! You can check a small video of that car here:

EXCLUSIVE: 2015 BMW 4-series Gran Coupe F36 M Sport spotted!


The BMW Store at the Motor Show was also a nice surprise (got something little for myself there, since I am a huge BMW fan, and also own and drive a E90 330i). Anyways, enjoy the pics and the video below...
