Happy Friday.

Updated thread with a unique race car currently attacking hill climbs in Europe.
This E90 began life as an FIA spec'd race car built for WTCC racing.
But somewhere along the line, it got an S65 transplant and went into Hill Climb.

It rides on the WTCC front and rear suspension with stabilizer, KW 3-way adjustable coilovers, and stops with ceramic brakes.
Power, of course, comes from the S65B40, built to 540 HP / 9,500RPM and sent through a Drenth Motorsport DG500 6-speed sequential gearbox.

Enjoy.
