Tobias Riemer from Halle, Germany, has always been fascinated by cars, especially Fords. His passion for cars ignited when his father introduced him to Need for Speed and the Fast and Furious movies. The thrill, style, and spirit of these iconic car cultures deeply influenced him, and when he finally got his own Ford, his love for the brand took off. Despite his job being completely unrelated to cars, Tobias finds immense satisfaction in building and personalizing his ride.
One of the most significant influences on Tobias’ automotive journey has been JP Performance and his group of car-enthusiast friends. Their dedication to car culture fueled his desire to create something truly unique — a car that stands out from the crowd.
Tobias’ pride and joy is a 2020 Ford Fiesta Mk8, a car that truly reflects his vision. While many car enthusiasts focus on engine upgrades and raw power, Tobias chose a different path: his Fiesta features a rare air suspension setup. This decision wasn’t just about looks — it was about making a statement. Air suspension on a Fiesta Mk8 is almost unheard of, but Tobias wanted his build to be something no one else had done.
The car sits on Bola B10 rims wrapped in 205/35/18R tires, giving it an aggressive stance while the air suspension allows for both comfort and show-stopping style. Tobias faced challenges while fitting the wheels, but with the help of his friends, he managed to overcome them and achieve the perfect look.
While many car enthusiasts chase horsepower, Tobias keeps it simple with the stock 125 hp engine. He believes that building a car is more than just performance stats; it’s about style and making a visual impact. His most recent upgrade? The backlights, which add to the distinct aesthetic of the car and draw plenty of attention wherever he goes.
The next steps for his build include big brakes and a front bumper clean, both aimed at enhancing the car’s presence and making it even more unique. Tobias is not just building a car — he’s crafting a statement, one that says you don’t have to follow the crowd to stand out.
Cars are a central part of Tobias’ life. He enjoys photographing them and constantly surrounds himself with fellow enthusiasts. Although he doesn’t belong to any specific car clubs, his passion for the community and the friendships he’s formed have kept his motivation strong. There are countless stories from meets and events, each one adding another chapter to his car journey.
Tobias’ advice to other Ford enthusiasts is simple: “Just do things that no one else does.” His philosophy is to break away from conventional builds and push the boundaries of creativity. Whether it’s tackling a new modification or refining the details, Tobias believes in making your car reflect your personal taste and passion.
Tobias’ long-term goal is to continue evolving his Fiesta into something that truly makes a statement. Future plans include big brakes for better stopping power and a front bumper clean to give it a more streamlined appearance. With his creative mindset and determination to stand out, there’s no doubt that his Fiesta will keep turning heads.
Tobias’ message to the community is clear: “Do it or leave it.” He believes that building cars is about passion and dedication. If you’re going to put your heart into it, go all the way.
