Are you fucking kidding me? What an absolutely horrible thing, this is really sad. I loved watching his videos and always appreciated his influence in the BMW world, he changed a lot and preserved cars that many of us would have forgotten. He maintained a level of such obsessive detail in the products he provided his customers, was truly enthusiastic and passionate about the hobby and cars that we all love. He will certainly be missed, this is a massive kick in the gut - more than that. I wanted to buy a car from him someday. Not very religious but I'll keep him in my prayers and be thinking about him a lot for some time.

Rest in peace Eric, godspeed.

Eric was a standup fella, met him and had many conversations with him over the years whilst living in the US. He will be missed by many.

I had the pleasure of working with both brothers a few years ago on a car I bought and couldn’t agree more. Stand up guys, lots of integrity, and an amazing family of enthusiasts. Still hard to believe this happened

Oh my gosh!
I watched his video just the other day.
I am very sad.
What a tremendous loss.
