Volume 23

$49.99

Retromotive Magazine, Volume 23, is a love letter to cars with character—the ones that clunk, whirr, bark, and make you smile. Or, as our editor puts it, it’s a tribute to “that noise… that sense of mechanical occasion.”

Stories featured in this issue:

  • BMW 2000 CS — the coach-built Neue Klasse coupé with Hofmeister kink flair.

  • Lancia Flaminia Sport Zagato 3C — the triple-carb “3C” evolution announced in 1962, elegance with real pace.

  • 1986 Buick Grand National — the intercooled V6 era that turned a blacked-out Regal into an ’80s cult hero.

  • Porsche 911: History & Future — from air-cooled chaos to VTG turbos, PDK, and today’s performance-focused hybrid step.

  • Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 Evolution II — 502-unit homologation icon with real aero and DTM-winning pedigree.

  • Lamborghini at 60 — from Ferruccio’s 1963 factory to Audi-era investment, carbon-fibre leadership and the road to electrification.

  • Audi 80 Variant (1968) — the understated wagon that reset Audi’s future with a modern four-stroke, FWD layout.


Real stories, honest engineering and great photography.

Retromotive is a premium coffee-table-style publication focused on classic cars, people and their stories. Printed on beautiful thick art paper — 300 GSM matte art-paper cover, 128 GSM gloss art-paper inside.
