It's a left hand drive car, I bet it is not in Japan but in a asian country where they drive on the correct side of the road, Korea or China perhap.s

If that's someoene's track car, cool... if it's a daily driver, not cool.

That is the uber rare ZLS (Performanc Lunch Stop) Package consisting of a trunk cooler with a pop up picnic table so that you do not scratch the paint on the hood right?

I know ricer is an overused term.

Buts lets do the math, is this car really a ricer?

Huge wing
+
White / Black Rims
+
Fugly body kit
+
Stickers
+
Bad taste
= Ricer

we have a winner. I thought only ACS could make a car this nice look so bad.

I like how the wheels change color.

You know, somewhere there is a Boeing 737 missing a wing panel.

its so funny how everyone in this thread is calling that car a ricer when it will whoop your ass on the track. obviously that is not a street car. it has tow hook......thick front tires......light wheels.......and those brake the spoiler is for downforce if i am correct. its form over function rather than half the guys here that get painted reflectors and call there car modded

Of course it will win ... it can fly.

there are lots of bimmers in japan that are LHD, i think...for example in this thread: http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=102407

that spoiler is indeed too NeedForSpeed-like and i personally not feeling it aesthetically at all. but by looking at those uber crazy brakes and possibly Aragosta shocks (check http://www.sunbeam-corp.co.jp/ ), this car might be own by a real track enthusiast that didn't like his M3 to roll on 20inches dubs

The ALMS car has a huge wing too, is it ricey?




Sunbeam auto has been building fast cars for quite a while, and that particular M3 is pretty damn fast around their local tracks.

It's certainly not something everyone would want to daily drive, but calling it ricey is pushing it.


Here's that same ricebucket at a racetrack, being ricey:

To each his own!

I like the brakes, but the wing is not for me. If you like it, great...

I know the culture, etc is different in Japan. May be cool there, but in the US, it is not, for the most part.

I think most of the comments are directed at that being a street car as the pics in the 1st post were not on the track. Also, the car is plated....furthering the assumption that this is a street car.

At the track, great. If it is a time attack car, I can understand it.

For a street car it would be totally poser and ricey IMHO.

Well, it's not an ALMS car nor is he gonna ever sustain the speeds that produce enough down force on the public roads...I hope. I used to see shit like this in Saudi Arabia with Habibi's sticking all sorts of dumb shit on their $100K+ Merc's and what ever else they could buy with oil money.

Man, I thought I'd seen everything. There's one born every minute!
