Tuned JDM and High-Performance Maintenance

Maintaining such high-powered vehicles is no small feat. Professional tuners perform regular servicing to ensure peak performance. For example, the Evo builds use racing fuel (ethanol) to achieve maximum power output.

Maintenance Costs:

  • Fuel: Ethanol is 3x the cost of regular petrol, with significantly higher burn rates.
  • The average cost for a weekend run is approximately PKR 20,000.

The owner recommends sticking to fully tuned builds for reliability over DIY conversions, as they minimize potential issues.

Conclusion

The garage tour highlights the cultural blend of Japanese engineering and German luxury. While the Mercedes C63 combines high performance with day-to-day usability, the Evos are raw performance machines that shine on the track.

For enthusiasts of speed and power, these cars represent the pinnacle of automotive tuning. Whether you prefer the luxury and reliability of German engineering or the thrill of JDM performance, this garage has something for everyone.
