Depreciating Assets

05/28/2026

A small group, intimate setting, and a great evening in conjunction with the Planins BMW Club At The Rite was a great time. Good conversations, amazing food, beautiful BMWs, and a chance to learn more about the history of the Rite together.

Sometimes the smaller gatherings are the best ones. Huge thanks to the owners who brought their cars out and shared the evening with us. Drop your favorite BMW from the night below.

DA Driven Episode 13 (Part One) | Vlad Fairbird | "The Vlad"

Part 1 of a 2-part episode featuring the man, the myth, the legend many know simply as Vlad.

On this episode Gabriel Ruiz and Wilbert Gilbert sit down with Vlad Fairbird for a conversation packed with horsepower, stories, sarcasm, and zero filter.

From growing up in the USSR, to building some of the fastest street-driven BMWs around, Vlad dives into:
• How cars became his life
• The evolution from bikes to high-horsepower builds
• Building cars that can actually be driven and abused
• Why reliability matters just as much as speed
• His thoughts on the modern car scene, takeovers, and track culture
• The story behind his viral social media growth
• Why the people are what truly make the car community special.

The episode also goes deep into Vlad’s current lineup, including multiple 1,000+ horsepower builds, the Hellcat, the Plaid, and the blue G80 that’s become an absolute monster on the street and at the track.

If you’re into fast cars, real conversations, and hearing the mindset behind the builds, this one’s worth the listen.

Watch Part 1 now, tag your people, and let us know your favorite moment from the episode.
