High Scores // Golf MK7 on Rotiform
Ever tried ice skating before? It’s amazing how the simple task of moving on ice requires plenty of factors to be counted. Imagine then how it feels like to move on ice while evading people, and trying to land a score using a long stick at the same time. Congrats; you’ve just felt the glimpses of ice hockey, folks. Combining …

Fly By // Bob’s SLK on BC Forged
There’s nothing quite like cruising in a convertible. The sensation of air rushing through your hair, the strong sense of speed, and the pronounced engine noises livening up the experience. It’s the closest bond one can attain between man, machines and nature. Bob, the owner of today’s featured car, has been longing for a convertible for as long as he …

Titan // DuelL AG MINI Countryman on Volk Racing
Worlds collide. Today’s featured car started its life in the European continent, with decades-old legacies dating back to the 1950s. Today, it’s been corporately bought by BMW, yet still being strongly attached to its British heritages. On our streets of Jakarta, MINI itself has become the new urban icon of ‘stylish city-buzzler’. It’s daring designs, historic graphics and compact platform …

Ingenuity // Kevin’s MK6 on SSR
In today’s car scene, one could categorize enthusiasts based on the parts they install onto their cars: full-on aftermarket/custom approach, or a long list of purely OEM parts. Both are equally interesting nevertheless. There are also some who would throw OEM and aftermarket parts into the mix altogether, creating the perfect combo, like today’s featured car. It is perfectly understandable …

Under the Radar // Subaru BRZ on BC Forged from Solo
Mention ‘an economic powerhouse under the guise of a city in Indonesia’ and most people would only come up with Jakarta in their mind. Seeing it as the capital city of Indonesia, it is quite reasonable for most to think that way. However, there’re also other cities that flew under the radar, mostly located only thousands of miles away, yet …

Casual Sport // Porsche Cayman on BC Forged
At the beginning of their inception, sports cars were just what they were intended – as cars that offered superior driving experience and above-class performance compared to the rest of the herd; in return, they’re quite a pain to be used daily. But that was decades ago. As the demands grew, sports car manufacturers listened to the wailing words of …

Glorious Executions // Duo Lamborghini Gallardo on ADV.1
“Take up one idea. Make that one idea your life – think of it, dream of it, live on that idea. Let the brain, muscles, nerves, every part of your body, be full of that idea, and just leave every other idea alone. This is the way to success,” said Swami Vivekananda, an Indian Hindu monk and chief disciple of …

Euro Highline // F30 3-Series on HRE
We are now experiencing an era where there’s seemingly an endless number of properly modified BMWs. And that’s a good thing though, for there’s now plenty of inspirations out there for fellow BMW owners. World-wide, the company has shipped over 2 million vehicles in 2014! That’s a lot of high-end deliveries (BMW, MINI and Rolls Royce) for the entire world …

Blast from Past // Boy’s BMW M5 on MORR
In the realm of product life-cycle, the word ‘last’ often left quite a big impact in people’s memory. Even though the newer version is supposed to be better in every way, there’s a certain character that’s been attached so well to the previous generation that it’ll always be missed. Like today’s last-V10 M5. Followed by the new M5’s V8-engine, there …

Speed Star // Subaru WRX STI on Wedsport
Big fan of WRC? Then surely the name Colin McRae would ring a bell into your mind – and still probably spark some very uplifting memories. Famous for his achievement in being the youngest ever to win WRC (back in 1995 he attained first place at age 27), Colin McRae inspired an entire generation to take a step forward in …

All at Once // Audi Q5 on ADV.1
I love surprises; there’s always something hidden and exciting out there, waiting to be found. That curiosity once brought me to ‘nasi bogana’; a local traditional cuisine consisting of rice wrapped in banana leaf, accompanied with eggs, chicken, and tempeh inside. A single, compact meal delivering all the right flavours and nutrients at once. Delicious! This Audi Q5? Well it’s …

Clean Cut // Yuga’s Skyline R33 GTS-T on OZ Pegasus
Say the word ‘Skyline’ and immediately a vivid R34 GT-R comes up in your mind. Yes, a bayside blue one, isn’t it? The kind of poster car that a lot of us growing in the Gran Turismo and Fast Furious era will surely be able to relate to. Next in line attached to the ‘Skyline’ name in our minds perhaps …

Risks & Beauties // CLS350 on ADV.1
Great risks come from great opportunities. Sure, comfort zones are becoming everybody’s most favourite shelters; but it’s also the biggest hindrance to one’s growth. Had Isaac Newton stayed in-house all day long, he probably wouldn’t have come across the falling apple; and the theory of gravity wouldn’t have been credited to his name. Risks keep us growing, make companies fruitful …

Gold in the Rough // GT-R R35 on ADV.1
Following up on our previous Solo city featured rides (which are surprisingly outstanding: from turbocharged GT86 to ADV.1 CRV), today I’d like to present this tastefully modified GT-R R35, captured by Winston J during his recent trip to the Batik city. A rare sight in itself, as a GT-R, in one of Indonesia’s most culturally-rich cities; today’s build managed to …

Extraterrestrial // RevoZport Aventador on ADV.1
Science-fiction. The wonderful land where real-world knowledge and out-of-this-world imaginations are fused together into a singular, speculative, and often controversial execution. Ever since the early 1900s, the world has been left in awe by the rapid growth of such ‘discovery of the unknowns’ genre. From books to movies to everyday objects, these are the often-future-inspired ideas that have become our …

Forces Unleashed // Calvin’s 435i on Vorsteiner
Ever since its inception in 2012, the 4-Series has been getting a curiously high level of attention from media and enthusiasts alike. While most are trying to wrap their heads around BMW’s agendas in ‘+1’-ing the 3-coupes into becoming 4-Series, others are left meticulously in awe by the new model’s fresh appearance and above-average performance. It’s sleek, it’s wide, and …

One Eccentric Crossover // Albert’s MINI Countryman S on BC Forged
Countless times we’ve encountered, in the dynamic stories of car ownership, owners have been setting their target cars ever since the beginning; the dreamed ride. There are, however, also stories of those never planning to buy a certain model, yet bewitched by the model’s persona upon viewing it in person on the showroom floor. This is especially true for Albert …

Never Subtle // Lamborghini Gallardo on Rotiform
Ruthless, cunning and dangerous. Ever since its humble beginnings in 1963, Automobili Lamborghini has continuously made itself known as the most outrageous and rebellious supercar manufacturer on the entire planet. Its raging-bull badge immediately indicates the supercars’ association with the wrath and life-threatening instincts of a beast. Uncontrollable and shall never be tamed. Predictably, most earlier model Lamborghini’s behaved in …

Dressed to Impress // Adrian’s F30 3-Series on BC Forged
Dressed to impress. Three words that could make an impact to everyone. Simply put, you have to stand on proper apparels in order to wow the crowd upon your arrival. Casual shirts and shorts can’t do the job on formal parties; Tuxedos meanwhile, isn’t the way to go for the beach party. Frankly, if you want to leave a mark, …
