What are you talking about? It's probably way too much show, however there's plenty of go. This thing will tear up the roads wit 420 Horsepowers and god knows what other stats it's got.

I was just pointing out the fact that its damn near impossible to modify a car in germany because of tuv. For germans anyway. Unless your made of money, its way to much hassle to modify a car. And theres no way that car has 420hp. LOL If you belive that, I've got a bridge in brooklyn I wanna sell ya.

You'd need 400hp just to drag around that plastic they have super-glued to the trunk.

That wing is the last thing you would want on a 1er to make it go. Especially with an angle like that - it might as well be a parachute. It has to screw up his handling at speed and just screams "I dont know wtf I'm doing".

The spoiler has to go. I can't believe someone put that on a BMW. The car is nice otherwise.

Umm..my 1-series has been perfectly stable at 155mph on the autobahn without a spoiler (and I am talking about a convertible here, with the top up or down). The only time it felt unstable was when I was going top speed through a corner on the autobahn that I had no busines driving that fast through. Sure, maybe a little spoiler would have helped with that, but it usually had more to do with bumps mid-corner and the car just wanted to fly to the outside guardrail after that.

Oh, and I hit 140mph on the Nürburgring this weekend, and the only problem I had was when I got airborne on a hill-crest on a long stretch (at 140) and the car started to dance a bit when I landed. ALMOST crapped my paints there.

The wing looks like one of those cheap BOMZ joints from ebay!

aesthetect · 11-10-2008, 06:35 PM

yes the wing is a bit much. point made.

good to finally see those rims on an actual car. they look damn good. although they do look spaced out?

gmag21 · 11-20-2008, 10:59 PM
