Saw This "BEAST" Up At My BMW Dealer Yesterday...
It is a customers car who according to the service adviser, had the "Full DINAN Stroker Kit" and he "spared no expense!" Well ladies and gents... If that's true (I didn't look under hood) then that means this guy has 600+hp and comparable torque under his right foot! The White with Carbon Fiber roof is simply ricockulous.
What I could see is Huge Dinan 6 (maybe even 8) pot calipers, Dinan Exhaust, Full Dinan Bodykit, giant rubber wrapped around custom 3-pc wheels and a perfect drop.
The license plates speak for themselves...

Don't know, never loved the look of this car, and your second picture makes the door seem very awkward. Not sure this looks any better than your standard run of the mill 6 series. Personally I would take a 3 series coupe any day.

Interesting. I didn't even realize Dinan made stroker kits or that stroker kits were available for any BMWs.

50 grand in mods not including the 80.5 hours necessary to install, and not including the wheels or tires or body kit or who knows what else he has that's not in that package.
So let's assume with the body kit and new tires/wheels, labor and misc items you're looking at another 20 grand.
So 110 grand for the car plus 70 grand... 180 grand before tax.
The number of cars I'd buy for 180 grand before spending 180 grand on that car wouldn't even fit in the college essay. Then again if 180 grand was pocket change to me then maybe I'd get one just to say I had something unique. Who knows...
In the end you've paid 180 grand for a car that's still going to see the tail lights of a C6 Z06 Corvette that costs 1/3rd the price... and get completely destroyed by a ZR1 that costs almost half the price.

Can somebody say panel gaps?
I think a Hyundai Accent would have less of a gap...
Back bumper looks like it belongs at the front.
I'm not a big fan of the 6 series, but stock looks way better IMO (even though I least like the look of the 6 series out of everything BMW sells).
