    Default 20" wheels someone? and pics of a very special E38 Diesel

    Have a look here.
    What do you think about that design?
    Car was shown last month in 2 German car magazines and the wheels were bought for this purpose. Now he is going to sell them for some more shots for other magazines.

    Default It's "ONLY" a 730D

    Here a pic of the engine


    The body parts are made by Seidl Tuning in Germany.
    The also produce parts for E32 and E34 too.
    http://www.seidl-tuning.de/

    The Diesel engine: with Hartge Tuning Chip and 440NM and 219 Horsepower!
    325ft-lp and this at 1950 RPM !! The 740 Europen Version had the same but you one have 3950 RPM!
    For a diesel this Car runs very good!

    I have driven last year in Germany a Diesel from Mercedes for about 2 weeks when I was on holiday. Very low consumption, fast, and not loud. Nowadays the diesel are very cultivated in Europe. I wonder why they are not sold in USA and in ASIA by BMW. I have never seen a Diesel BMW in Japan.

    Im not a huge fan of it either. The front looks pretty good, and I really like the wheels, but the rear is just way too much. That shade thing at the top of the rear window looks tacky, and the color looks more like something you would see on a ricer civic. But that's just my opinion, to each his own .

    doesn't turn me on a bit. the color reminds me of something that stinks usually found in the toilet. body kit looks like it was meant for a freakin Mitsu Eclipse. i feel sorry for the car. what a waste...
