Why do people have the urge to take something beautiful and then destroy it?
these cars look to me like they are about to S**t themselves. Each to their own I guess. and good luck with those speed ramps. lol

key word being "each to their own" I've seen the blue one at the show in uk and it was super clean and had some cool unique bits.

it's on air suspension so raises up and drives no issues.

if the owner likes it then who are you to tell them otherwise.

OK as show cars, almost certainly will have air-ride suspension, I imagine fortunes have been spent on them.

I don't like that look, but obviously at least 3 people obviously do!

If that is what they want good luck to them - at least they've chosen a good car to modify! :)

Wouldn’t do it to my car but each to their own. I admire the time and effort they have put into them.
I’d definitely read a build thread for those with interest.

The last zed’s the better looking car of the three in my opinion.

A car is for driving and those dont look like they would be very enjoyable to be in.
That and the tyres could get you a dig so if you were to go for a drive you might not get far.

I suppose we should be honoured that they feel the Z4 is worthy of modifying. Not my cup of tea though.

yes thats true, and I was expressing purely my own opinion. Its definitely not my taste,. I didn't even know there was something such as air suspension. lol, but then Im not as much of a petrol head as some out there.

Im just curious, what are the benefits of having such an extreme camber on the wheels? obviously for racing it makes sense as you hit corners as fast as possible and run lower tyre pressures., but surely these are going to burn through treads from irregular wear...

I do like customised cars, I love looking at them and admire the effort and money that goes in, sadly I've never been rich enough to do a project car... maybe one day! as I never say never.

I love the fact that there are people around who have the skills, money, time and vision to do this sort of thing. It would be a dull old world if we were all the same, so bring on the diversity I say - no matter how silly they look.

Look how much fun we had with that appalling orange 3 series on the other threads!
