HnP Photoday // E90ers

Couple of weeks ago we did another HnP Photoday with the E90ers community. We’ve had one with 86ID, Morning Call Bandung, and this time it’s E90ers turn, arranged with the help from Iwan of KW Indonesia. As many as fourteen cars showed up on that day, including a couple of 1M’s, F30 and E46, adding a great diversity to the …

Permaisuri Thursday // F30 3 Series on DPE

Through the current gen of F30 3 Series, BMW has proven itself as the expert in designing sporty compact sedans. Which is actually not an easy task either, especially considering the fact that the F30 is larger in all aspects than the E90. How can you make a four-door sedan that’s longer than its predecessor look sportier than ever? Perhaps …

Pure Bred // Boosted GT86 on Advan

Introduced back in 2012, the Toyota GT86 has become a strong contender in the affordable rear-wheel drive sportcars market. Also known in the US as the Scion FR-S (Front-engine Rear-wheel-drive – Sport), the GT86 has been marketed by Toyota specifically as a blank canvas from which owners can explore the limitless tuning options that are available in the market. Encouraging …

Deja Vu // Bob’s Subaru GC8 on Volk Rays

An ever-growing trend among car manufacturers’ rivalries these days is in the form of numbers “racing” (a race for higher HP and lower 0-60 times repeated on a yearly basis). A 1992 GC8 Subaru WRX, for example, came off the factory floor with 236HP. It’s rival, the 1992 Mitsubishi Evolution I topped the output simply by adding 8 extra HP, …

Permaisuri Thursday // BMW 1M on Rays

Last week we’ve featured the 135i on DPE, some time ago we’ve also featured the M135i on BBS; today it’s time for these rides’ beefier brother: the BMW 1M. Meaner, wider, and faster, the 1M has been infused by BMW Motorsport division’s culture of speed and precision on top of its 1-Series platform. From flared fenders to the aggressive bumpers, …

The Marvelous Coupe // 640i on ADV.1

Have you ever wondered what ‘BMW’ stands for? Apparently it’s Bayerische Motoren Werke, or Bavarian Motor Works in English. ‘Bavarian’ because one of BMW’s founding companies was headquartered in Bavaria, and ‘Motor Works’ because it used to specialize in the manufacture of engines/motors, especially aircraft engines. Why aircraft engines? Because BMW was conceived from the merger of three companies, two …

STI LOL // Sanadi’s Widebody GTX3076 Evo 8 MR

When men first succeeded in mass producing the automobiles, there was only one model to buy – The Ford Model T. A pioneer of its age. A childhood dream for most of the boys from that era. A symbol of freedom and achievement to those who can afford it. It was the historic massal beginning for humans to start bonding …

Blue Gem // Didi’s Evolution VIII on Volk Rays

The Evolution. The warrior to the three-diamond-badge’s army of Japanese engineering. Brembo brakes, Recaro seats, Bilstein shocks, Enkei wheels, carbon fibre rear wing. No, these are not the parts that Didi the owner has installed on his ride. Instead, these are the parts that Mitsubishi has given all Evolution VIII owners as its standard package. Fast, nimble and uncompromisable, Mitsubishi …

Show Off // New Accord on HRE

On today’s Show Off article, I have a build that’s rather unusual. Starting things off, we have car that obviously hasn’t been seen too often on our streets these days – the New Honda Accord. I don’t think I’ve ever seen any other on the road in fact, apart from this one. But what’s most surprising of all is the …

86ID Morning Run Sept 2013 // Photo Coverage

No doubt the population of GT86s and its cousin BRZs has been growing rather rapidly in our country. Reasonable pricing, Toyota’s practicality, Subaru’s famous boxer engine, have all made these two pairs among the top-of-list for those looking for < Rp 800m coupes. Plus there's a large aftermarket industry which has opened the gate to limitless customization opportunities. Perfectly daily ...

Rise and Fall // Babat’s 7 Series on Vorsteiner

This past half-a-decade we’ve been seeing a rapid rise in the number of US aftermarket companies trying to tap into the premium European-cars aftermarket industry. Especially when it comes to wheels/bodykits. With most claiming their products to have been proudly produced “in house” in the United States. Limitless customizations. Exceptional quality. Outstanding marketing strategies. Premium prices. Through stunning product photo-shoots …

Permaisuri Thursday // Range Rover Autobiography on DPE

The Range Rover. A British icon that’s been handled by the German (BMW 1994), the American (Ford 2000) and lately the Indian (Tata 2008) throughout the company’s history. British design. German technologies. American rigidity. Indian business model. All of these traits have shaped up the Range Rover that we know today, and along these ownerships we can also see the …

ONEIGHTEENTH Indonesia Diecast Gathering // Photo Coverage

Living in the office for twelve hours a day. Skimming through a rim of papers weekly. Typing a dozen of reports monthly. And then there’re those never ending meetings! Let’s face it, working in the office these days can sometimes be so overwhelming that keeping a proper life-work balance is often difficult. That’s why a lot of us are turning …

Permaisuri Thursday // E Coupe on DPE

Never. Never have I imagined that the E Coupe can look so stunning wearing such banana’s outfit. Looks so right; looks so nice. Browsing through the history of E Coupe’s I’ve posted in HnP, they all seemed to be rather monochromatic. Black. Silver. Grey. White. Nothing else. Essentially they all looked good while showcasing the E Coupe’s elegant lines. But …

Ground Level // Donny’s 330Ci on Work Meister

The BMW 3 Series. The best-selling model on BMW’s lineup. As what everybody might’ve known, I have, am and will always be the till-death-do-us-part BMW fan. It all started when I fell in love with the 3 Series chassis at my seventeen years of age. My dad gave his E30 to me as a birthday gift. A car he picked …

MOTOR Stancelovers Day Out // Photo Coverage

More and more we are seeing the Indonesian car culture shifting away from its “contest-is-everything” image. Casual meets. Friendly competitions. Outdoor laid back events are becoming more popular these days, especially ever since we stirred things up with the GENESIS car show earlier this year. On July 21st 2013, MOTOR magazine also held a casual gathering for stancelovers at The …

Permaisuri Thursday // Murcielago SV on HRE Wheels

Permaisuri has done it again. SuperVeloce supercar meets super wheels. This raging successor of the Diablo SV has been prepared by Lamborghini as its toughest, fastest, most manic beast to date to bear the SV badge. With production figures that are much less than initially proposed (around 180+ instead of the proposed 350), it is then also one of the …

Born to Be // Armand’s F30 on BC Forged

Distinctive reverbs. Pitch-perfect high tones. Energetic acts. Powerful shouts and screams. Lively performances. No I’m not talking about the car. It’s Armand, the owner of this F30 3 Series we are featuring today. A talented singer. An inspirational figure. A loving husband and affectionate father. He’s none other than the lead vocalist of the 13-year-old successful Indonesian rockband: GIGI. Born …
