Performance BMW Magazine March 2020 Edición anterior

Our cover car this month might well be our favourite Bavarian machine from the whole of SEMA and we’re not sure any other feature car this year is going to make us feel quite the same way this incredible S55-swapped 2002 has. Its owner started out with a tired example of the much-loved classic BM and then proceeded to completely transform it, adding a tubular chassis, custom metal wide-body, slathering the whole lot in stunning San Marino blue before fitting a custom interior and a single-turbo S55 under the bonnet. It’s a breathtaking build on a scale that will simply blow you away. Elsewhere we have an epic V8-swapped E30 from Poland, a build that will make E30 fans the world over go weak at the knees, and before you get a chance to recover we’re going to hit you with a Group A E30 M3 recreation and that’s the kind of double-dose of classic 3 Series action you need to get you through the winter blues. Keeping it classic we’ve got a simply superb, ultra-clean air-ride E28 that will make you lust after one of these old-school beauties, and then we crank things up with an S14-swapped E36, a stunning custom E60 M5 build and the second mag outing for a certain F80 M3, now boasting a head-turning M-inspired wrap, a lush set of custom wheels and the small matter of 611whp. We’ve also stuffed a guide to the S63 twin-turbo V8 in this issue and there’s loads more to get your teeth into.
