Wheels Craze // Andy’s W202 on Lorinser

A lot can be done to cars these days. You can pick an Evo and turn it into a stanced show-stopper, or pick a CRZ, plant a Type R engine in it and turn it into a track monster. Some say mods can defeat a car’s purpose, while others believe that they are respectable expressions of owners’ creativities and ambitions. …

Permaisuri Thursday // Wide Body Expression R SLK on HRE

Every once in a while we do come across one of those “What is that?” moments. Whether it be some never-seen-before antique wheels, or an unidentifiable classic car that perhaps dated back to the pre-WWII era. Thing is, as much as gearheads as we are, there are still plenty of automotive builds and parts out there that are remotely unknown …

May the Sun Set // Dennis’ Evolution X on TE37SL

I wake up everyday finding myself checking out latest posts from Jalopnik, Speedhunters, Canibeat and StanceNation. Daily updates from these sites have pretty much given me the latest info on new car releases, the hottest wheels in the scenes and most recent automotive events around the world. Years after years have passed with such a routine and sometimes things are …

BOLD // Widebody Hamann Evoque

Meet the Range Rover Evoque. Land Rover’s quirky designed little SUV. Hip, young, and frankly quite the peculiar child among its siblings; the Bieber of Land Rover’s product line up. With a 2.0 turbo engine comparable to a hot hatch’s and design lines that looked straight out of a scifi movie, the Evoque raised quite a lot of eyebrows when …

Permaisuri Thursday // C Class on Carlsson Revo

The Euro tuning scene is definitely different compared to others such as the US and Japanese. While US might currently be dominated by concave forged wheels and Japan by slammed VIPs, most Euro tuners stayed true to its upmost respect towards function over form. Take a look at Carlsson, ABT, Brabus, AMG and the like. Most of the wheels they …

Know Your Roots // Franky’s Stream RSZ on Volk Rays

Should lambos be bagged? Are excessive cambers pointless? What about air suspension? A lot people these days are bashing too much on what other people are doing to their cars, with arguments ranging from “ruining cars” to “doing expensive wastes”. Is it a good decision to ruin a Subaru’s ability in tackling terrains by lowering the car so much that …

Permaisuri Thursday // 6 Series on Modulare

It takes quite an open mind to accept new car designs/concepts these days. Recently you might’ve seen the extreme Lamborghini Veneno, the flamboyant LaFerrari, the alien-lookalike new Lexus IS, the new Cayman and many others. Oops, the Cayman doesn’t belong there; Porsche is surely one of the most conservative these days. Well, thing is, as designers push out the boundaries …

True Black // Matte Black GT86 on BC Forged

For most people, the easiest and most attractive way to be different in the kaleidoscope of car culture is to have bright unusual colours painted over the car’s body. Edbert’s Odyssey, for example, demonstrates how the attractive red candy paint has transformed the family van into a stylish VIP ride. Some, however, are going the exact opposite route. Murdering out …

Permaisuri Thursday // E90 on Rays Homura

Let me give you an interesting fact: among Indonesia’s major highend sedans (Mercedes, Audi, and BMW), BMW is the one most often posted at hawk’n’poke. I’m sure this has to do with the number of modified BMW’s out there. We have MOCI, for example, which shows just how much ///M cars are reigning over AMG’s in population. S and RS …

Sieben // Andry CarSpa’s E Coupe on BC Forged

The number 7. Andry’s favorite number. He’s the owner of this immaculate B 7 DRY E Coupe, also the owner of CarSpa. Some of you might’ve seen his company logo posted as one of our site partners. Or perhaps you might’ve also seen Andry and his E Coupe in person during GENESIS; CarSpa had a booth there. Like a pianist …

It all started when Mr Tada, who was working at Toyota as a chasis engineer at that time, received a phone call from Mr Toyoda (then Toyota Vice President). Mr Toyoda presented him with the opportunity to …

Mercedes-Benz has been one of the most inspiring European automotive makers of all times.

One Fat Fit // Abdee’s Jazz on CCW Classic

Counting the number of Jazz’s in Jakarta would be as easy as counting the spots of a Dalmation. Honda has sold thousands of them and I bet hundreds can be seen during your daily trip to work. Plagued by such substantial population, a lot of Jazz owners have gotten creative and started prepping out their rides like no other. Quite …

Show Off // F10 5 Series on BC Forged

Every once in a while, I do get submissions that put up some personal mixed feelings. Doubts whether I should post it or not. Whether it is appropriate to be posted at hawk’n’poke or not. The F10 5 Series with M5 kit I’m showing you off today is one of them. As you might’ve known by now, I’ve always put …

Show Off // GT86 on Volk Rays

The making of cars these days are often very similar to the making of films. Some were built under low costs and budgets with the expectations of having high margins. Others were built so roughly and unthoroughly by the designers, with timely market entry becoming the only priority. Few are, however, built to represent the rebirth of legends. Designed, built …
