While we work primary with BMWs, we put plenty of other cars cars to the test on our Dynojet 224xLC dyno. So when we had this C63 AMG Black Series (one of only 800 produced) arrive at our shop, we just had to snap some photos to share with you guys. Enjoy.
An M3 doesn't need much to look great. This otherwise stock Alpine White E92 is lowered on Swift springs and features painted reflectors. With only minimal modifications, this M3 looks elegant yet aggressive.
The latest modifications to this 2013 Alpine White M6 coupe are a new set of wheels and lowering springs. The 5 split-spoke, forged monoblok HRE P47SC wheels feature a satin black finish and are sized in 20"x9.5" in the front and 20"x11.0" in the rear. H&R Sport Lowering Springs give this M6 its sporty drop by lowering the car 1" on each corner. The combination of these modifications instantly gave this M6 it's wide, low and aggressive stance.
The ESS VT2-625 Supercharger replaces the previous VF620 system for 2013. With all the ESS systems we've been installing in the past 8 months, we needed to have one of our own to put to the test. With a heavy track schedule planned for this year, we should be made aware of what this kit is made of.
A new set of wheels and a drop really does a lot to change the overall look of a car. This Space Gray E92 M3 came to use to have a set of custom satin black powdercoated, wide fitment VMR V710s installed. Combined with the KW adjustable sleeve-over kit, this M3 now sits lower and wider than it ever did before. A Vorsteiner carbon fiber lip and BMW Performance carbon fiber spoiler along with some black chrome accent pieces complete the dark, aggressive look of the car.
As most F10 M5 owners discover, the stock exhaust simply does not do the twin turbo V8 justice. A popular remedy for the situation is the Eisenmann exhaust system, which is available in either Sport or Race sound levels. This M5 owner went for the more aggressive Race option, which really brings the S63Tu engine to life. The 102mm polished, rolled tips are substancially larger than the stock tips but they still retain the subtle OEM styling.
Today we discovered that the popular BMWPedals Extended Billet DCT Shifter Paddles fit perfectly in the X5M and X6M. This customer opted for the black paddles without holes to maintain a dark, OEM-like appearance which matches the X5M interior nicely.
Another E92 M3 came to our shop to have us install the highest quality exhaust on the market: the Akrapovic Evolution Titanium Exhaust System. This customer opted the Carbon Fiber tips which feature a riveted, laser-etched titanium logo plate - the contrast of carbon fiber against Alpine White creates an aggressive style. The rest of the exhaust system is constructed entirely of high-quality titanium, which saves 50lbs over the stock exhaust.
After having us install the first round of modifications on his Alpine White M5, M5Post member mindlessmark07 returned to our shop for some finishing touches. Wanting the loudest and most aggressive exhaust on the market, we installed the Meisterschaft full stainless system featuring quad 102mm tips. To match his carbon fiber rear diffuser we installed the new RKP carbon fiber lip, which elegantly flows with the stock bumper lines. 21" 3-piece Morr wheels combined with the H&R sport springs give this F10 it's ultra sporty stance. While this M5 stays true to clean styling, it still catches the attention of enthusiasts wherever it goes - just this weekend it got best in show at the San Diego Targa Trohpy. Enjoy.
