Impressively Aggressive // Eka’s 3 Series F30 on HRE

In 1975, BMW continued the success of their compact BMW 2002 Coupe with the first 3-Series ever produced: the E21. Since then, the 3-Series production was so successful that Mercedes-Benz, the competitor, spent a billion dollar developing a luxurious compact sedan to compete within the same market. In the 1980s, Benz’s 190E (W201) was born and became their first attempt …

Proper Update // David’s F10 on MORR

It all started 40 years ago when BMW decided to make an executive mid-size luxury car, the 5-Series. Thanks to the sizable chassis underneath (also used by 7-series F01 and 6-Series F12), the F10 5-series is the perfect car for daily commutes; especially when paired with its spacious interior and masculine exterior. A very desirable personal space for the white …

Storming Flair // Adit’s Frozen Grey M3 on TE37SL

As chilling as cold metal surfaces. Emotionless, calm, and composed. BMW’s frozen grey color is one of the most sinister-looking OEM paint job in the industry. An anomaly to the otherwise chaotic-colored world, the alluring monochromatic scheme has brought serenity through the most mischievous way possible. Mischievous, because underneath its soothing paint job still lies one of BMW’s best sounding …

Changing Lanes // Charles’ Subaru WRX on TE37SL

The 2005 Subaru is a terrible car. Yes, you heard that right, what an awful method of transportation! Aha, but of course that’ll only be true if you’re a first-time car buyer. It has a manual gearbox, uninteresting fuel economy, very basic interior and a fascia that looks like a bug. What a nightmare for new drivers! But to all …

Classical Approach // Arnies’ Prior Design 3-Series F30 on Breyton

The rise of the F30. Everybody knows that the 3-Series haven’t been as popular as the C-class Benz in terms of its nation-wide sales. However, the number of individualized 3-Series these days could be comparable to that of the Benz. We’ve seen several personalized F30’s on our site and recently Winston sent me these pictures of another great one owned …

Sophistication Evolved // Iwan’s 3 Series E90 on ATS Wheels

They say a lot of enthusiasts do evolve. The cars they picked. The parts they installed. The decisions they made. Is it true? Well, as a kid I used to love cars. All cars, but especially bright-red two-door cars. Red Ferrari’s, red 90s Mercedes SL, red convertible Miata’s, I used to collect their diecasts. But if you ask me now, …

Tipping Point // Alex Supremo’s Golf on CCW

The aggressive fitment scene has spread across the world like a wildfire. Started from the idea of having widest wheels and lowered race cars to be used on the track, the aggressive fitment scene (some people refer to as ‘stance’) has been bringing the same approach to the streets, albeit with a lot more poke-and-camber. More style, less track-oriented. Recently …

Rule the Streets // Sebastian’s Evo VIII on Volk Racing

What’s quick, 4-wheel-drive, 4-door, have aggressive handling and a turbocharged engine? Absolutely there’s no better way to describe the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution than through those five characteristics. With 271 horsepower from the factory and a 0-100km/h time in around 5.1 seconds, who wouldn’t want one (apart from non-stick-shift drivers)? Plus, upgradable parts are in abundance when compared to any other …
