Two words, Twin turbo.

I like the idea of it, got luck to the guy that races your 520i haha

Who tries to race a 520i??


But OP, +1 for doing something you want to do. Weird as it may be.

[AndreNY]

WOW very nice downgrade, good job

[Emil]

I don't get why people are ****** on this, this is really interesting, definitely different. I like it, thumbs up.

[autoE34]

this is about as great as it gets in my opinion. OP is a fricken genius.

[Marsss]

i gotta admit that it's refreshing to see that there's someone out there that has a killer ride and wants it to look like a "poverty pack" ride...
The whole "make my car look lots better" thing is a bit played out... specially on this forum.
Do work son... or maybe not...
whatevz..

[blackg5]

I don't get it, the M bumpers looked better


ruined it IMO..

[Z.Cockburn]

I was wondering about Swiss laws and modifying cars, I thought it was illegal to change parts or alter specs from the factory?

Is this endeavor a way to lower suspicion from local law enforcement?

I kinda like it and kinda don't,its like I know you are trolling people in real life, which is fine with me since internet trolling gets on my nerve, I can understand all that + slammage = real mind fuck, its kinda like watching tranny porn, you are turn on by the tits, but you get turn off by the dicks, a real mind fuck for sure.

To me swapping an s62 drivetrain into a 520, 530, or even 540 and leaving the body stock = an admirable sleeper

Taking an m5 swapping the bumpers to stock and putting a 520 badge = half ass and destruction of what looked to be a very nice m5. I realize you can revert it all back it just seems sensless :dunno

I'd rather have them try to race and just embarrass themselves. But that is just me.
I don't understand the motivation; but gift me the style 65s they'll look good on my e34.

[MrZog]

I kinda expected all the **** . . I'm even a bit surprised that some seem to like it . .

whyyy would you go for the sleeper look on the M5 to each his own i guess..

because there's no point in a sleeper look with a 520i . .

Usually sleepers are more like putting a ls1 in a ford focus... Not putting focus badges on a corvette.

true . . the shape of a Corvette can easily be mistaken for a Focus . . so sticking a Focus badge on there would fool everyone! . . very weird example . . . .
and just on a side-note . . putting a LS1 into a Focus and driving it on Swiss roads would probably get you into jail (and I'm not kidding . . ) . .

Don't like it, you made a good looking car uglier to fool people into racing so you can win more??

. . well . . I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder . . and I'm not into street-racing". . the point is completly the opposite . . with a car looking like this, you don't even get "teased" to race . . no stupid STI and Golf-owners hugging your rear bumpers all day . . no idiot in a E36 revving his engine at the redlight . .

[nvrlft]

This is f-ing brilliant. Love me a sleeper!!!!

[whitebeaste36]
