Vintage Love // Mini Cooper S on HRE Vintage

Yes, finally I get to post this gorgeous Mini which I’ve been a huge fan of for a while. It’s sitting on a set of HRE Vintage 505 wheels. Word around is that it is the one and only set on a Mini throughout the Asian region. Lowered on KW Suspension coilovers and enhanced by Akrapovic exhaust system, this Mini …

Show Off // SLS 63 AMG on DPE

Just when I thought there hasn’t been any modified SLS 63 AMG in Indonesia, Permaisuri sent me these pictures of a sexy red one wearing dark DPE wheels. Compared to the other exotics, the SLS is definitely quite the peculiar breed. It doesn’t look as quick as the Ferrari, nor as techy as the McLaren MP4-12C. Mercedes has decided to …

The Performance Package // CLS63 AMG on DPE

It wasn’t until the recent years that car manufacturers have been going all out marketing their ‘four-door coupé’ models. Some has even been using the jargon ‘Gran Coupé’ to further confuse the market. Who actually started it? Mercedes Benz did, with the CLS. Go check out their site, they call it the CLS-Class Coupé, yet there are four doors attached …

Show Off // Vorsteiner X6M

4,395CC. Twin-turbo V8. 555HP. 500 lb-ft. Those are stock X6M’s performance figures that will put E92 M3’s numbers in shame. Reaching 0-100 in 4.7s inside a 2.38 tonne crossover is surely an experience like no other. Oh, and I should tell you as well that the X6M we are showing off today is far from stock. It has Akrapovic exhaust …

Future Classic // Eduard’s AC Schnitzer 330i E46

Whenever I see one of those nicely restored E30 3-series on the street, I always find them ultimately inspiring. Get real, today is 2012 and even the latest E30 is 20 years old already. Seeing one that’s been well maintained and fitted reminded me just how much of automotive passions are out there among Indonesians. This E46 we are featuring …

Show Off // Panamera on ADV.1

Some say it is merely a stretched out 911. Others say it’s the perfect soccer-mom’s car. Nevertheless, the Panamera has proven itself to be one of the best selling Porsche model for the company. Yes it’s got “two many doors” for a Porsche, and so does the Cayenne; that surely hurts performance. Despite this fact, consumers are still eagerly buying …

Aston Martin. It’s the brand that’s been so closely related to a movie series that’s unmatched by any other brand. It’s the James Bond movies. Ever since the Goldfinger (1964) movie, James Bond has always been found driving an Aston Martin. It is this association that has encrusted the brand with its prominently found prestigious, techy and secretive image. If …

The M Addiction // Tuned M3 and M5

Turns out I was quite right regarding the number of modified BMW M3 in Indonesia. There seems to be more of the modified ones on the road rather their stock counterparts. Some have even been fully tricked out like this one we are featuring today. Note that this particular M3 is Frozen Grey in color, with a satin-like matte finish …
