wow, that's a pretty serious car. Looks pretty track oriented. I'd rather run some LE37's on it for the street but it looks like a purpose built car so far.

Yeah, I would have loved the wheels in another color(black) IF the car is going to be used for the track. Otherwise, like others have alluded to, this a German car, not a Japanese one.

Wow, those rims look like ***. Looks like a busted *** civic. You guys should do yourself a favor and yank those off yesterday.

They might weigh more but some BBS CH or similar would go a long way in correcting that car.

The exhaust looks nice although again I'd ditch the blued tips.

wow, blued tips...haha


titanium....


overall I think poor color choice, conservative offset and widths = boring end result.as for Volk being the japanese racing wheel, they make some nice wheels, but nothing extraordinary. perhaps weds sport TC105, SA70, or SA70TT would have been a better fit.


meh, I think it could have been better.

Those 19's look like 17's,am guessing it 20's could easily fit. Either way its Still nice.

Just thought the same thing. With that said, this car has some potential. However, with all that money spent, wouldn't it be better to just wait and get the M3?

HAHA no kidding!


don't worry...i still think its hawt! of course look what i'm driving and i'm sure everyone here will understand why i find it beautiful . while i agree that this car could wear other wheels just as well, if not better, i have to disagree with those who find them ricey/ugly/you name it. i think TE37's are some of the best looking one piece wheels that still maintains the mantra of "form follows function."

speaking of TE37's, are these true TE37 Mags, or are they just standard TE37's painted "Mag Blue?"

i think the blue exhaust tips look great as well...then again, i'm biased . i really would prefer either a full titanium exhaust or no titanium at all though. as for the sound, meh...i really wish exhaust did more for the tone of this motor. i watched "before and after" video clips of a dark blue (maybe Monaco Blue) 335i with exhaust of some kind (Eisenmann, Super Sprint, can't quite remember ), and honestly it sounded the same before and after. there was maybe a slight increase in volume, but the motor sounded the same.
