This past Thursday I was able to make it to a local meet for the first time in a very long time. Whenever I have been back in NJ (which hasn’t been often) I try to make it to a meet or show. Lately I hadn’t been able to do so, but now that I am in NJ for at least the rest of this year, I granted myself the privilege of hanging out with a few car peeps. Man, was I freaking glad I went because I had the honor of being able to see this beast of a car…

It’s okay, I’ll give you a moment to pick your jaw off the floor. Take your time. Done? Good.
Yes, I was able to see this gorgeously stanced out 3 series wagon. I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner and his family. Unfortunately, I am as good with names as Rosie O’Donnell is at guarding food and I forgot the guy’s name. But he was a super chill guy and had a great family. Sorry man, if you see this, hit me back with your info!
Believe or not, this is a family hauler for the owner and his brood. How freaking cool is that?! He drove there with his entire family and I have to say, they were the most stylin’ family at the meet. Haha.
This shoot was not planned. I asked around to find out the owner and he graciously granted me the privilege and honor of taking these pics. No setup or anything. He just pulled the beast out of the parking spot and owned the lot for a few minutes. Of course I took way longer than anticipated because I couldn’t stop drooling. it is painfully difficult to play with camera settings and wipe your drool at the same time. This car oozes awesomesauce!
The owner told me what wheels these were and, of course, I forgot. They are not TE’s, so don’t ask. I do remember him saying they were from a company in Cali, I think. I am probably lying. Dammit. Shit, oh well. BUT, that stance is on freakin’ point! Stanced family hauler, HELL YEAH!
So. Damn. Sexaaaaay!!
Here he is trying to leave and I just kept creeping the fuck out of him by snapping pics. How could I stop!? This thing is so fracking gorgeous!
I’ll end with this shot, so you can continue to salivate. Don’t fight it, just accept it…







That BMW is freaking sick. Freak nasty sick. I would probably dump the Forester if I came across one of these in good shape.
Many thanks for teh feature man and wish I coulda set up a proper shoot with you! Yeah name is charles loudermilk..hence cee el or C.L… and yeah an asian with a non-asian name, mutt status.
AnyHways its a 2003 325 touring, slow and low. Bilstein pss9 coilovers fronts maxxed with lock collars ditched and spring perches trying to make new threads, in fact I’m looking into kw’s now for Moar low. TMS rear adjustable camber control arms at about -2 but needs a bit moar negativity. Fronts -1 and change.
Wheels are Vorrstoens 2.2.2′s at 8.5 x 19 et 27 and 9.5 x 19 et 33. 215/35 front 235/35 rear. Stance is getting there but I’m doing some cutting and pulling to rear quarters for 5mm spacer addition.
Shots look good for store front lighting! My small clan sends their regards.
Ballin out of control sir.
Hey Charles! Glad you saw the post and liked it man.
Yes, that pizza shop provides some great lighting, lol. Hit me up so we can set up a proper shoot man. Photos.MChopra@gmail.com
