Star Drift Challenge 2009 Finals – Day 2

As the second day dawned on the track at A’Famosa Resort, the participants could be heard practicing since the wee hours of the morn, piercing the heavenly silence with 4AGE roars and blowoff valves. Lugging ourselves from the bed and being treated to a sumptuous breakfast at one of the clubhouses, the track was full of participants trying their very best to dial in their cars for the final push towards qualifying.

Car Spotlight; Time To Clear The Cobwebs – Flaming Hot City!

Well, it has been a while since the last post, and due to time/event constraints here’s a refreshing new update; the chili-red Honda City you see here belongs to a certain person who has put a great deal of attention to his car, even if it costs a bomb in these financially unstable times. The 3rd-generation City has been given a new bodykit, some shoes, and a minor performance bump which shows that not all family sedans are boring. Not forgetting that unbelievably red paint which caused a havoc on our white balance sensors! Check out more images after the jump.

MCSB To BMW: Build It!!

A particular Mr. Iulian Bumbu, a graduate of a design course at SPD in Milan has singlehandedly designed this sharp-looking BMW coupe, a vision of how the next generation sports coupe would look like. Named the BMW S.X Concept, it is based on the 6 Series, a far cry from the portly-looking current M6, with its aggressive front styling. Even though the rear would look more at home on an Aston Martin, it certainly looks the part of a BMW, incorporating Bangle’s flame styling along its sides while giving it haunches which suggests massive power underneath the expansive hood. The side profile looks similar to the 8C Competizione, and short overhangs both front and rear would mean either a wider wheelbase, or slightly smaller car than the current generation, if it ever reaches production status!!
