A Composer // Lamborghini Gallardo on Rennen Forged

Couple of days ago I posted the quite unusual yellow painted Z4 sent in by Mex from Bandung. Today’s ride he sent me is even more outrageous. 1) It’s a Lamborghini. 2) It’s wearing the not-so-usual Rennen Forged wheels of choice. 3) It’s been installed with a set of custom fibre and carbon body parts. A typical Lamborghini owner these …

Some Called It Landshark // Yellow (paint) Z4

From Laguna Seca Blue M3, today we move on to another uniquely colored BMW: a shiny yellow Z4. Yes the color has been achieved through a repaint, but it shines pretty good. You can see the depths and shades in these pictures yourself, they are real nice. A daring move indeed for the owner of this used to be silver-colored …

Show Off // Ferrari FF on HRE

It’s the first Ferrari with a four-wheel drive system. It’s the first Ferrari to be officially styled as a shooting brake. It is also one of the few Ferrari’s having ample boot spaces and four seats. What it is, then, seems to be Ferrari’s attempt in stretching out the usability and practicality of its supercar. The FF can practically be …

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 …

Frankly, if I were the reader of this article I would’ve definitely skipped these sentences for later and went straight to scroll through the whole set of pictures. I mean, look at those yellow Brembo …

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 …

The Performance Package // CLS63 AMG on DPE

It wasn’t until the recent years that car manufacturers have been going all out marketing their ‘four-door coupé’ models. Some has even been using the jargon ‘Gran Coupé’ to further confuse the market. Who actually started it? Mercedes Benz did, with the CLS. Go check out their site, they call it the CLS-Class Coupé, yet there are four doors attached …

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 …

Future Classic // Eduard’s AC Schnitzer 330i E46

Whenever I see one of those nicely restored E30 3-series on the street, I always find them ultimately inspiring. Get real, today is 2012 and even the latest E30 is 20 years old already. Seeing one that’s been well maintained and fitted reminded me just how much of automotive passions are out there among Indonesians. This E46 we are featuring …

Show Off // Panamera on ADV.1

Some say it is merely a stretched out 911. Others say it’s the perfect soccer-mom’s car. Nevertheless, the Panamera has proven itself to be one of the best selling Porsche model for the company. Yes it’s got “two many doors” for a Porsche, and so does the Cayenne; that surely hurts performance. Despite this fact, consumers are still eagerly buying …

The M Addiction // Tuned M3 and M5

Turns out I was quite right regarding the number of modified BMW M3 in Indonesia. There seems to be more of the modified ones on the road rather their stock counterparts. Some have even been fully tricked out like this one we are featuring today. Note that this particular M3 is Frozen Grey in color, with a satin-like matte finish …
