As the new year comes along, new builds will appear here and there. Most of the time we feature rides once, however, there are builds that are worth mentioning more than once. This is the third time we are introducing Alan’s clean black on black BMW 335i coupe. This time it’s back with a brand new interior and engine bay. This bad boy is part of the worldwide car group, EuroProjektz. The sole goal of EuroProjektz is to increase the influence of European car builds to the show circuit. This 335i is here to prove that not all show cars need to be over the top. Sometimes there are finer details that are missed. This is a build we wouldn’t mind following until the end.
Here’s a reminder of how “His Darkness” looks like. To see more exterior shots see our first and second features of this BMW 335i.
Here are some under the hood JDM parts for the JDM guys. It’s always nice to see how European cars and Japanese aftermarket parts sync up. The Gruppe M intake is the most expensive intake on the market for the E9x platform. The company also prides itself in it’s handcrafted precision carbon fiber parts that come along with the intake. Each intake is individually made and inspected then given a unique serial number direct from Japan. The sound that this intake makes when paired with the 335i is ear-gasmic. Another JDM part under the hood is a strut bar produced by the now-defunct Cusco.
The interior is one the main reasons why we had to feature this build for the third time. Alan recently spent the last 4 months overhauling his whole interior with black on black Alcantera and leather diamond stitching. With the addition of diamond stitching, the interior of this luxury car just went up a level. The silver stitching brings out the details of the car.
We’ll end this feature with the a shot of his clean engine bay.
