A Powerful and Affordable Sports Sedan 

I am a 36-year-old petrolhead business owner. I love a good car meet and love anything that someone is passionate about, I don't care what you got, if you love then I'm in.

Ever since I got my first car I wanted to put some wheels on it and make it mine, the guys I worked with were into modified cars which instantly got me hooked. But ever since I was little a modified car would always turn my head. I love the loud exhausts and customisation. I had a limited edition e92 m3 at the time and although it was a car I always wanted, I wanted a forced induction car. I got an offer I couldn't refuse that involved this car, so I went for it.

Owning and driving this car the feeling is simple, I love it, it's so responsive and so well put together. It's a nice comfortable ride and in Sport+ is a whole other level of asbo lairyness.

What do I think makes my car Unique?

The jap wheel on a German car with all the carbon fibre, especially the wing, is a head turner but it's typically heard before it's seen.
