BMW Z3 M



Z3 M Coupe
What freak of nature made this. M3 engine in this chunky mash of M5 rear propertion and narrow front end.


It's one of those controversial designs. That polarizes opinion. Not Open, Small Trunk?

Just add wheels it gets in your face even more. You can't decide if it's cool or not.


Either way, you have to consider this car has power, and a boot. It's not super huge that it looses all chuckability AND it has a trunk/boot which makes it one of the ultimate practical sports cars.


Go further and things get even more confusing. Can it rival the EVO 9 Wagon or StageA.


This car with the painted roof almost becomes a different car altogether. It almost returns the roadster profile with a kicker tail.


Tuning or Racing How far do you push...


Z3 M coupe Race Car... Insane!!!!

S 2 Million!


This S2000 is crazy! Turbo tuning using a trust engine kit with (T518z), Big brakes and drivetrain to enjoy a multi purpose machine. 


The exterior has been dressed up around a spoon body kit, but many parts of one off. Custom wheels HRE C21 (18 inches).


The interior has installed a one-off audio box under the spoon cover, this is a pretty special S2000



A car like this is amazingly cheap. Around 25K right now at lead cars.

It seems as the tuning scene dies in Japan, bargains are becoming available.

If I had this money today... It might be mine. Screaming VTEC, Whining Turbine with BOV and open air... can't get much better than that.

Juro Merc

This pic from the RS-Watanabe site really has me interested.

I have always been a fan of the old mercs and I love a convertible car. They are just fun. There are a few old mercs in Australia with 20B cosmo engines and this one has the style down almost perfect. Maybe the fronts could be a little wider spaced or the rears just a hint narrower, but near perfect.

It should inspire someone.

Or this will http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdQy49YkDjI
Get back to the Old school.
