top marques discovery turbo

It’s been a very exciting morning to say the least. Late last night I found out via email that Top Marques went live on the Turbo.com website! As some of you might recall, this was the project that I was wrapping up (see The Tapes Hit FedEx ) just before we left for
The Great Motorcycle Adventure.

As some long time readers might recall last year I spent five weeks last year bouncing around Europe in order to capture the magic of eleven of the greatest automotive manufacturers in the world. Top Marques is the result.

The web portion of the project is free to watch online — A nice side benefit of the Web 2.0 movement ;) and there are segments from each company that are dedicated to the brand history, their manufacturing process and each companies latest, greatest vehicle. What’s even cooler is that the Turbo website allows viewers to pick and choose exactly which parts you want to watch, when you want to watch it. This is undoubtedly a window into the future of television as we know it…
