Laguna Seca Blue // Posma’s E36 M3
Today’s post serves as another example of Indonesian car culture’s diversity. While E92 M3’s have become quite common sights these days, it takes a very lucky day to meet an E36 M3, let alone a Laguna Seca Blue one. Jumping from M3 to M3, couple of weeks ago Winston did the photoshoot for Alvin’s Frozen Grey M3 and today he …

Double Chills // Alvin’s Frozen Grey M3 on Blue TE37SL
Can you name any other two-letter car model that can match the M3’s personalities of sportiness and road-going performance? I bet you’ll be having a hard time doing so. Some say it’s the shortest yet most recognizable car model synonymous with benchmark-setting high-performance capabilities. Handling, power, aesthetics, and histories, the M3 has it all. Despite this fact, BMW hasn’t actually …

Black Pearl // Audi A4 on BC Forged
Mystique, murky, fierce, often bold and cold. Black is the majesty of the dark. Making friends with shadows and hazes, black entities often go very much unnoticed. The Dark Knight opted for its all-black suit for a reason. To blend with its own shadows. To move swiftly unnoticed. To create that element of surprise. To be feared. The same goes …

Different Shade of Grey // 325i E90 on BBS
Go ahead and look up at what most people say in regard to having grey as a car color. It’s as colorless as white and black. Yet white has become such a sporty color and black is still in its eternal people’s-favorite-color state. So what about grey? If black is cool and white is hot, what about grey? Well, let’s …

Time is Right // David’s Stage 2+ Golf R
When I was a kid, my passion for cars were greatly fueled by the dreams of one day driving a real Ferrari, NSX, GT-R, Evolution and the like; the legendary rides that appear to be the fastest and sexiest among popular video games and movies. Never in my mind would I’ve thought of myself growing up to becoming a Golf …

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 …

The M Addiction // Tuned M3 and M5

Some argue and mock the modifications as being pointless and nonsensical, because those …

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 …

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. …

Executive Speedster // 325i LCI BMW Performance
At first sight, you might’ve thought that the ride we have here seemed quite similar to other commonly found BMWs. It’s got four doors, it’s a 3 Series, and aesthetically there’s nothing too gaudy about it. No fancy branded wheels, no aggressive fitment, no colorful body wraps; there’s absolutely nothing about it seems out of place. The modifications, in fact, …

Powerful Little Hatchback // Scirocco R on BC Forged
Volkswagen’s performance lineup, the GTI and the R, has often been regarded as wolves in sheep’s clothing. Mind you, these cars look almost identical to their less powerful cousins; yet when it comes to the engine bay, they are equipped with powerful 2.0L turbo engines that could chew out more than 300HP even when lightly tuned. Coupled with the hatchback …
