Pure Passion // Adrian’s 435i on ADV.1
Agitation is quite an issue. When it manifests onto something, fiasco occurs. Which is why, a calm and composed nature is a must for everyone wanting to succeed. An example of such calm and composed nature exists on today’s stunning 435i: sporty, yet just the right amount of aggressiveness. Stylish, yet will never be pretentious. It’s a pure passion blend. …

The Impeccable Family Van // Winston’s Alphard on Rotiform
The family van. I’d say it’s one of the most perfect candidates for an air-suspension setup. With air-ride sedans, it’s more of a form-over-function kind of purpose; yes, mostly all about looking good aired-out. But with vans, I feel like it’s totally a different package altogether. Yes, they also look supremely good aired-out; but most importantly, the passenger-access for getting …

Dazzling // Denny’s W212 on OZ Futura
It’s one of those models you probably would have skipped; the E-Class sedan. That is, when you’re considering a new toy as your new project car. Mid-size, rather bland, very ‘corporate-fleet’ looking, and largely ‘Boring’. The S-Class would’ve been a greater platform for VIP-styles, while the C-Class would be perfect for sportier projects. Today, however, Denny is proving us otherwise. …

Phenomenal // Rocket Bunny GT-R on ADV.1
Every once in a while we’d stumble upon local automotive builds that are simply phenomenal; they’re unlike any other creations you’d find roaming our streets. These builds are often so aggressive, daring and beautifully a-little-over-the-top. Today’s GT-R definitely belongs to such a group. It’s one of the few widebodied GT-R’s in Indonesia and the details on this one are pretty …

Get Hyped! // McLaren on Rotiform
Supercar customisation is all the rage nowadays. From the cityscapes of Tokyo to the beautiful beaches of Miami. From the countryside of Italy to dazzling-hub of Hong Kong. Slammed Ferraris, widened Lambos – from the lightly touched ones, to the heavily modified ones; they’re conquering the world! Last I checked, Daigo Saito has even turned a Murcielago into a drift-spec …

Supercharged Saloon! // BMW M3 on ADV.1
Mention ‘performance car’ and most Indonesians would associate the term with a two-door body style. Yes, the coupes/cabrios, which often comes with four-seats, yet quite a huge hassle to get into. Only a select few would associate the term with saloons – except today’s M3 owner, whose performance ride of choice is peculiarly standing apart from the rest. At first …

Powerhouse // Anthony’s GTI MK7 on Revo
Back in the days before fuel injectors, bumping horsepower figures involved some pretty serious physical tweakings to the engine: things like carburetors, spark plugs, and engine internals. Not a simple task, mind you. With all the independent factors that’s essential to the engine’s smooth-running; modding and adjusting them isn’t exactly a child’s play. Today? Thanks to the ever-so-more-complicated designs, things …

Mr. Lunatic // Kiki’s Alphard on Vossen x Work
What we have today is, quite possibly, the best example in staying within the middle-ground: the thin line between two most-contradicting things in the life of a car enthusiast. That is, when you’re in charge of your family, yet still having a strong urge in modifying the family-van! Tough call, I know. A thin line that, when executed properly, could …

Instead, they need to ‘work together’ in order to create photographs outstanding enough to be imprinted into everyone’s memory. Take a peek at today’s featured car from Solo with its outstandingly …
