Soccer Moms need not apply. This BMW SUV is not your everyday “pick-up-the-kids” type of wagon that you are accustomed to seeing in your local township. After all, this is one of the fastest production SUV’s around. An ear to ear smile is common when one depresses the throttle in this 555 HP missile. But as usual, there are always those who desire more…
When this 2012 BMW X5 M first pulled up to our door step, it was immediately evident that a vehicle with such voluptuous proportions was in need of new ‘shoes’. The customer is a longtime fan of COR wheels thus model Bayonet was ordered in a 22” Deep Concave 3pc configuration. Gloss black lips and matching centers create instant visceral appeal especially after the M was lowered. To help our new pet breathe better when chasing down Porsches and Ferraris, we opted for an Evolution Line Titanium Exhaust by Akropovic, combined our own IA Downpipes and custom tuned the ECU which brought this Twin Turbo M to well north of 650HP.
Elegant enough for that important date and agile enough for the weekend track day; Here is IA Project Bismarck!
