X6m 01

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 …

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 …

Street Dreams // Fairlady 350Z on TE37SL

“Have you ever actually raced it on the track?” I’ve seen a lot of internet trollers and haters raising this question on forums and boards in regard to performance-tuned rides; and it isn’t rare to find these threads filled with angers and arguments fueled by the question. Some argue and mock the modifications as being pointless and nonsensical, because those …

Spotlight // TechArt Porsche Cayman from Palembang

The Porsche Cayman might’ve been a very common sight in the metropolitan city of Jakarta and Surabaya. Even the new 991 911 has become a quite frequent sight these days. We have even featured one that’s sporting a set of ADV.1 staggered 21″-22″ wheels a few weeks ago (). None of these cars, however, have experienced the same spotlight-treatment as …

Black and Wild // E92 M3 on ADV.1

I’ve never thought that there’d be so many modded M3 in Indonesia. Especially one that’s as good looking as this one we are featuring today. I mean, the coupe’s already wearing the prominent M badge and it has often been reviewed as one of the most balanced performance cars in the industry. I thought most owners would be satisfied by …

Childhood Dream // K20A Civic Estilo on Volk

Never before I’ve seen a three-page specification list document being submitted to hawk’n’poke’s email. Never before I’ve seen such a simple looking car with tons of work actually been done underneath it. Never before I’ve seen a 1995 car that’s been rebuilt with so much passion. Only in dreams, I thought. But then Mex submitted this K20A Estilo owned by …

The Porsche 911 has always been one of the most praised automotive icon in the industry. When it was first launched in 1964, it instantly became the ‘cool’ sports car that everybody desired. It might not be as quick as the Ferrari, nor as lunatic as the Lamborghini, but its combination of husky performance and peculiar design has managed to …

Meant to Be // Evolution X on Advan

Plenty of problems can arise in the process of modifying a car. In most cases, those problems are caused by premature and bad decisions. Let me put it this way. Back then when I was a kid, I once received a Honda S2000 remote control as a gift. It was the fastest RC car I’ve ever had at that time. …
