BMW Indonesia releases new lightweight 3 series racer!

[zero 1162]

On holiday in Bali I spotted this new model and took secret photos specially for bimmersport members.

It features a new design, on a lighter weight chassis with special racing wheels.

Even the badges have been replaced with a painted on version all in a quest to save weight.

Teaser photos below;

I like what seems to be a missing lug nut on the front left wheel - really paying attention to detail with the weight saving.

Seriously WTF

Someone had too much time on their hands (and bog!)

that boot fitment around the E39 prefacelift lights really pulls it all together

Needs more bog.

Reminds me of the BMW Civic I saw in Thailand, although it was just badges, no dodgy bodywork...

(Hard to see the badge in the pic though)

Hah awesome. But no surprises, considering in the same country you will also find a Nuclear Research Station located right in the middle of a valley surrounded by active Volcanoes.
