Permaisuri Thursday // SLK on Erst Grora

I’m pretty sure not many of you would’ve heard of the name Erst before. It’s a Japanese company specializing themselves in producing forged and cast wheels for European cars. Popular among VW’s, the Grora model showcases an angled concave design that sets them apart from the competition. Today Permaisuri sent me this Grand Edition SLK sitting on a staggered set …

Permaisuri Thrusday // MINI Countryman on DPE

The way I look at it, despite the popularity of fake wheels in the industry, Indonesia still holds a prominent buying power when it comes to high value branded wheels. Take for example the GT86 on ADV.1 I posted some days ago. When ADV.1 put that image on their Facebook page, I saw commenters wondering why someone would install wheels …

Permaisuri Thursday // Ferrari 458 Spider on DPE

In this material world, a lot of people think that supercars are simply to be judged by their spec-sheet figures and fancy-named gadgetries. Top speed. Number of horsepowers. Price tag. Digital display. Etc etc and so on. Well, I personally don’t think so. To create an iconic supercar these days, a company need to be able to construct an animal. …

Permaisuri Thursday // C Class W204 on DPE

So aggressive, isn’t it? Today Permaisuri sent me these greatly captured C300 W204 wearing C63 body style and a set of gorgeous DPE CST10 wheels. While some people might argue that a C300 shouldn’t be wearing a C63’s bodykit, I’d argue for the contrary. Yes, the C63 is quite a beast to own. It also costs a lot more both …

Permaisuri Thursday // S212 Wagon on AMG wheels

Despite the very limited population in Jakarta, here we have a the second feature of a Mercedes E-Class S212 Estate! First one was also submitted by Permaisuri some months ago. That one was wearing the prestigious HRE wheels. This time Permaisuri paired the luxury wagon up with a set of OEM+ looking AMG wheels. Seven-luxurious-double-spoke design has enhanced the look …

Permaisuri Thursday // Wide Body Expression R SLK on HRE

Every once in a while we do come across one of those “What is that?” moments. Whether it be some never-seen-before antique wheels, or an unidentifiable classic car that perhaps dated back to the pre-WWII era. Thing is, as much as gearheads as we are, there are still plenty of automotive builds and parts out there that are remotely unknown …

Permaisuri Thursday // Subaru Impreza WRX STI on Advan

Meet the Subaru Impreza WRX STI. As lengthy as the name might be, it’s actually gotten some real punches under its sleeves to live up to that name. With more than 300HP to start with, it’s not often to find these boxer STI beasts turned into horsepower monsters. However, what we have today is more of a mint-looking well maintained …

Permaisuri Thursday // BMW F30 3 Series on BBS CH-R

Following 5 Series F10’s popularity in Jakarta is now the 3 Series F30. We are seeing more and more of these mid sized sedans on the roads, and a lot of them have started to be modified. Today Permaisuri sent us this F30 3 Series installed with a set of 20″ BBS CH-R wheels. Following the F30’s major redesign with …

Permaisuri Thursday // C Class on Carlsson Revo

The Euro tuning scene is definitely different compared to others such as the US and Japanese. While US might currently be dominated by concave forged wheels and Japan by slammed VIPs, most Euro tuners stayed true to its upmost respect towards function over form. Take a look at Carlsson, ABT, Brabus, AMG and the like. Most of the wheels they …

Permaisuri Thursday // C2S Aerokit Cup X E63 AMG on HRE

There really is no better way to start the day other than having a pair of highends inside my inbox. Permaisuri sent me these high performance duo wearing P40SC and P44SC HRE wheels few days ago. On one side we have the red hot Carrera S Aerokit Cup and on the opposite there’s this humble looking E63 AMG super sedan. …

Permaisuri Thursday // 6 Series on Modulare

It takes quite an open mind to accept new car designs/concepts these days. Recently you might’ve seen the extreme Lamborghini Veneno, the flamboyant LaFerrari, the alien-lookalike new Lexus IS, the new Cayman and many others. Oops, the Cayman doesn’t belong there; Porsche is surely one of the most conservative these days. Well, thing is, as designers push out the boundaries …

Permaisuri Thursday // S Class on DPE

I first saw these DPE Elite 8 wheels when I posted the Rolls Royce on DPE article. Today, Permaisuri sent me another classy ride sitting on similar set of Elite 8 wheels. It’s the S Class. Thick spokes, luxurious finishing and trustworthy quality; these DPE Elite’s presented itself on par, if not better, than Mercedes’s standard of quality. Check out …

Permaisuri Thursday // E90 on Rays Homura

Let me give you an interesting fact: among Indonesia’s major highend sedans (Mercedes, Audi, and BMW), BMW is the one most often posted at hawk’n’poke. I’m sure this has to do with the number of modified BMW’s out there. We have MOCI, for example, which shows just how much ///M cars are reigning over AMG’s in population. S and RS …

Permaisuri Thursday // GTI MKV on BBS CH-R

Tried and true. GTI and the BBS name must’ve been two of the most related brands in the Indonesian watercooled VW scene. Today Permaisuri sent us over these pictures of a white MKV GTI wearing the 19″ BBS CH-R wheels. Combined with KW Springs, these 19-inchers are looking just right. Perfect setup for a daily driven car. On top of …

One Fat Fit // Abdee’s Jazz on CCW Classic

Counting the number of Jazz’s in Jakarta would be as easy as counting the spots of a Dalmation. Honda has sold thousands of them and I bet hundreds can be seen during your daily trip to work. Plagued by such substantial population, a lot of Jazz owners have gotten creative and started prepping out their rides like no other. Quite …

Show Off // GT86 on Volk Rays

The making of cars these days are often very similar to the making of films. Some were built under low costs and budgets with the expectations of having high margins. Others were built so roughly and unthoroughly by the designers, with timely market entry becoming the only priority. Few are, however, built to represent the rebirth of legends. Designed, built …

Show Off // GT-R R35 on Volkracing

It’s been a while since we posted Japanese cars on the site. BMW’s have been filling up our most recent posts! However, yesterday Permaisuri sent us this aggressive looking GT-R R35 sitting on a set of 20″ Volkracing G12 wheels. Forged 1-piece construction and thin spokes design have made this G12 to be one of the lightest and strongest Japanese …

Show Off // S212 E Class Estate on HRE

I’m actually quite surprised to find the E Class Estate being available in Jakarta. I’ve never seen one in person, and yet here’s one looking magnificent on a set of 20″ HRE P93L wheels. The E Class Estate has its styling cues derived from the saloon version, plus a large hunchback at the rear to accomodate almost 2,000 litres of …

Mind Trick // CLS63 AMG on Modulare

Fuel economy of 10 liter/100 km. Four doors. 0-100 kph in 4.4 seconds. 550 bhp. Sold as 63 despite its 5.5L engine. On paper these stuffs do not seem to make sense. Borderline impossible to build, possibly going to be difficult to sell. But don’t be fooled. A quick glance at the 2013 CLS63 AMG and you’ll understand why. While …

Show Off // Audi A5 on Modulare

Released by Audi as the coupĂ© version of its A4, the A5 has inherited the A4’s modern design cues. It is Audi’s answer to the market’s need for a more compact yet stylish luxury automobile. Today I’m showing off this A5 dressed up by Permaisuri, installed with a set of Modulare B7 wheels. It might not look like much if …
