Twelve months ago, once we looked back at our most-read stories of 2022, there was an anomaly. For the primary time in Speedhunters’ history, our ‘top 10′ story list was completely dominated by event coverage. Well, 12 months on, history has repeated itself.
But exactly which event posts made the cut? Let’s take a look back at your favorite stories of 2023…
10 / The Modified Machines Of IAMS
Despite having debuted in 2018, 2023 (the event’s third running) was our first time covering the International Amsterdam Motor Show (IAMS) on Speedhunters. Due to some amazing IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER reader submissions, we were in a position to keep the content coming from the Netherlands over the course of the yr, and given what we’ve seen in that point, we’re excited to stick with it in 2024.
9 / Scandinavian Automotive Culture On Show In Oslo
Alen’s Oslo Motor Show story was just a little late to be published – the event happened at the tip of the 2022 Scandinavian summer season in any case – but that didn’t appear to matter within the slightest. It was interesting to see another sides of Norwegian automotive culture outside of Gatebil.
8 / Tokyo Underground: Germany vs. Japan
Toby pieced together a few stories on the 2023 Tokyo Underground meet, held at a secret carpark spot one evening during Tokyo Auto Salon week. Each stories did well, nevertheless it was the second post showcasing the standout Japanese and German cars that actually resonated with you.
7 / Embracing The Chaos: Retro Havoc 2023
We don’t think there was any way Retro Havoc in Malaysia wouldn’t make it on this list, because it’s an incredible show in an incredible country that just keeps getting greater and higher with every iteration.
6 / The Elite Showcase Indonesia Mega Gallery
Sticking in Southeast Asia, but this time Indonesia, Rick’s huge coverage from The Elite Showcase also went down thoroughly. And the way could it not with scenes like this?!
5 / Is South Tyrol The Recent Wörthersee?
In May, Michał took us with him to Italy’s northernmost mountainous region of South Tyrol, to see whether the spirit of Wörthersee – which the Austrian authorities just across the border had put an end to – could live to tell the tale. What he found was something slightly refreshing.
4 / The Perfect Recipe At Players Classic 2023
The annual Players Classic is a daily fixture on Speedhunters’ end-of-year top story lists, and 2023 was no different.
3 / Tokyo Auto Salon: The Big, The Small & The Bizarre
The Tokyo Auto Salon is one among our favourite events of the yr, and it’s obviously one among yours too. Toby’s have a look at the less mainstream/big name tuner side of TAS was an actual winner.
2 / The Ultrace 2023 Mega Gallery
An Ultrace mega gallery with ‘Kevin’ on the duvet was at all times going to be received well, and Vladimir’s important 2023 event recap from Poland ticked all the precise boxes. We thought this story might take out the highest story spot in 2023, and it got here very close…
1 / Tokyo Auto Salon 2023: Every part You Need To See From Day One
But a Liberty Walk-kitted Ferrari F40 headlining our important (read: huge) Tokyo Auto Salon gallery was ultimately too hard to beat, Mark’s superb coverage taking our most-viewed story honor in 2023.
As mentioned in the beginning of this post, event coverage totally dominated Speedhunters story views this yr, but further down the list, which feature automotive story ranked highest?
Honorable Mention / Love It Or Hate It: The Liberty Walk F40
Adore it or hate it, it’ll probably come as no surprise that Kato-san’s F40, as featured by Dino after TAS, piqued probably the most interest.
As at all times, thanks for reading. And a special due to all our IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER contributors for helping us have a good time and showcase automotive culture from everywhere in the world.
