Getting your car to be featured in car magazine can have many benefits.

First, it will give a good documentation of your modified Car for your effort and secondly, it
will give a good exposure for your car if you are thinking of selling it.

However, since there are millions of cars out there on the road, how can one attract
the attention of Car Magazine to feature your tuned car?

Here are some tips and guides on How to Feature your car in magazines by a BMW car owner whose BMW M3 Tuning was featured in 3 Car Magazines.

1. BE the FIRST (NEWS SELLS)

Car magazines works like newspapers, they need new stories to sell their magazines, hence to get the magazines notice you, you need to make news for them. If your car has the first new modifications from a car tuner, that would be ideal as it will create news and curiosity and attention of readers.

2. BE DIFFERENT: CREATE a whole unique car:

Your best bet is to start off with your mind to create something extraordinary but your own liking, of course according to your taste. You don’t want to create an unusual car only to hate it after the modifications. People want to see something extra ordinary. “Extra Ordinary” always attracts attention. But remember to do it tastefully otherwise it will only attract negative comments. Be creative, you don’t have to limit yourself to parts from one car tuner, you can mix and match with products of other car tuners or even from other makes of car tuners.

3. CUSTOMISED MODIFICATIONS: ATTENTION TO DETAIL:

Custom modifications attracts attention, it shows creativity and uniqueness too, that nobody else’s has. Car Magazines are enthuasistic to show customized parts to the world and people will want to buy their magazines to read and to check out the new parts.

4. BRIGHT COLOURS:

Car magazines love BRIGHT colored car, so if your modified car is of that, you have a point ahead of other car owners. You may have noticed this in all other front cover of magazines too. So if you plan to repaint your car, catch attention and make it to the cover, choose bright! (please note: choose a bright color that you can live with!)

5. CONTACT YOUR CAR MAGAZINES:

Well you need to let the magazines know that you have a unique car to feature. Find a suitable magazine that suit your car theme or make and contact them. If your car is modified by a tuner, you may want to ask your tuner to call the Magazines as they will have direct contacts to the publishers.

If you have a tuned unique car, many car magazines are more than willing to feature it. Just think of it this way, Car magazines need new cars to feature in their magazines every month! (At least five cars tp feature in each issue). How are they going to find these unique cars? If you have one and feel like getting it featured, capture some good pictures now and email them. You will have to let Car Magazines publishers and editors know of the existence of your Unique Car. Good Luck!
