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 …

Mod Bugs // Iwan’s E90 3 Series on BBS
Have you ever felt like things are going way out of control between you and your ride? Running on your 10th set of wheels? Repainted your car for the third time?

JDM.RUN Cruise // Photo Coverage
Traffic congestion. Reckless bikes (not all, but a lot are). Careless public transports. There are plenty of things to moan about when it comes to the daily conditions of Jakarta’s roads. And driving precious gems on these roads often proves to be an even worse experience. Worrying about scratches? Overheats? Hidden potholes? Crime threats? But then there’s always that time …

Lavish Desires // BMW 3 Series F30 on Vorsteiner
Take all that’s among the best F30 parts out there and put them into one top-of-the-line 3 Series sedan. That’s what we are having today. Brembo. Vorsteiner. KW. M-Performance. Akrapovic.

Art in Motion // Ronny’s Phantom Hot Rod
In the world of custom cars, we can often separate mods into two different kinds of styles: the controversial vs the conventional. Aggressive fitment, DUB, Lowrider and VIP styles, for example, can often be found as controversial ones. Pushing out boundaries and going as far as sacrificing performance/function for the sake of looks. All about breaking necks all day. Go …

Untamed // Mario’s E92 on Volk Rays G2
Singapore. A country so small that the government is now discouraging its residents even further from owning private vehicles. High taxes and ownership fees. High daily expenses (gas and parking fees). Speed limits. Restrictive aftermarket modification rules. All these have raised huge bars of steel surrounding Singaporean motorheads. Even the fact of owning a car has become merely a dream …

Show Off // Arief’s Accord on BBS
Every once in a while I’d come across some uniquely memorable cars at car meets. Throughout the year 2013, one of those cars is Arief’s Accord on BBS. I first spotted this ride at the GENESIS pre-registration meet, at Senayan. It’s bluish off-white color was the first to attract my attention, followed by the aggressively fitted BBS wheels. Japanese midsize …

A Matter of Choice // GT86 on ADV.1
Aggressively fitted. JDM style. Rocket-bunnied. Time-attack tuned. You name it, and I’m pretty sure there’s been a GT86 built on those routes. I’ve personally seen quite a lot of GT86’s both online and in person. But this, this particular one we are featuring today, quite frankly, is the first GT86 I’ve seen with ADV.1 wheels. While other owners might opt …

The Continentals // Euro Group Shoot
Contrary to the popular belief, I do think that modifying modern cars these days aren’t easy. To get that extra ‘oomph’ from the vehicle without sacrificing something else seems to be almost inconceivable. In a worst case scenario, one can even end up with an inferior item compared to the one which has just left the factory. Lowering your car …

Robust // G500 on AMG Wheels
It looks a lot like a bank vault isn’t it? Tall. Boxy. Heavy. Clunky. And, coincidentally, it often functions like one too: carrying valuable celebrities and athletes inside. While it might not be bulletproof nor as techy as Bond’s rides, the G500 does offer the level of comfort and versatility desired by VIPs and wealthy passengers. Whether it be city …
