The 5 series E39 is a pretty common car and it can seem a bit dull in its standard form. But with a few carefully selected parts you can really make this car stand out. This particular car belongs to Pavel, who has owned the car for almost a year and has already driven it 70,000 miles. The car sits about 5" from the ground thanks to custom coilovers
Let's start with part two of my coverage of the Streetpower event at Zandvoort. I couldn't resist starting with the Bonder E36 by DBM Engineering. It certainly is one of the most extreme BMW's I have seen in a while. It even managed to set the second fastest time of the day with 1:50.063. Here's another car built and maintained by the
A Speedhunters reader by the name of Kevin sent us an email sharing a radical BMW build he found. Based here in the US, this 1988 M5 is one of the most thorough privateer track cars I've ever seen. Weighing at a scant 2,500 lbs thanks to lots weight shaving and carbon parts, this E28 is track-only car that sees action in regional SCCA and BMW club
As enthusiasts, we personify cars as much as we can. Some of us give our cars names. A great many of us lust after cars like we would lust after a beautiful woman.

In 2009 the WTCC delivered the fan formula it's perfected over the years: big grid smash and grab action, drivers who seem to think they're at a local short-track banger event and 24 races over a big variety of circuits. The series visited smooth permanent race tracks, high voltage street circuits and some of the classic tracks - plus, it could
Luckily this picture hasn't been the result of a broken gas tank. But it does make for a very dramatic photo. I have been in contact with the builder Fluid Motor Union after I received this picture in my mailbox. I wanted to show you the full feature of this car already, but because of certain circumstances that will have to wait. I did got the
Now to wrap up my coverage from the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show. While there were a few big cars debuted at this year's show, it also marked the American debut of cars shown earlier at other international auto shows. One of these was the Mini Coupe Concept, which looks amazing in the flesh. Displayed alongside the Mini Coupe, was the equally sexy
Some owners build a car and after they run out of inspiration they sell it. But there are others that keep evolving their precious metal. We all got to know this car as a rusted E28 with tons of presence owned by Mike Burroughs. I featured his car before when he made a road trip across America . After that roadtrip Mike turned the car into a mean looking
When living so close to ‘The Ring' you sometimes feel spoiled as the high performance cars you'll encounter at the track become normal. For example, Porsche 911 GT3s are nothing special to see when Speedhunting at the Nordeschliefe. So you start searching for cars that are less obvious to satisfy your car craving. On my last visit I spotted
