Over in Japan, there isn?t a bigger Japanese dealer and distributor for a lot of aftermarket tuning companies than Studie AG. Not one to be content with just standard issue BMWs, Studie AG has been known to dress up Bavaria?s finest and turn them into some pretty bombastic-looking ? although sometimes, they go subtle ? vehicles.
This time, the company took a 2010 BMW 5 Series GT and turned it into a pretty awesome piece of work, opting for a more subdued paint finish than the bright and colorful hues they?ve been known to do in the past. For this particular F07 5-Series GT, Studie AG dressed it up in a flat safari green paint finish and christened it the BMW F07 Safari.
At first glance, this car looks to have been taken straight out of a wildlife preserve, but the truth is, there?s nothing ?preserved? about this vehicle. Apart from the neat paint finish, Studie AG also enlisted the help of noted BMW aftermarket tuner AC Schnitzer, who provided a front half bumper cover that Studie AG tweaked slightly to make room for a pair of LED driving lights. On top of that, they also put in a set of 19? AC Schnitzer Type IV wheels that measures 19x8.5 at the front with a +15 offset while the rear was given 19x9.5wheels with a +21.5 offset. Studie AG also replaced the hood of the 5-Series GT with a vented version that has rows of louvers on each side.
To complete the whole ?safari? look, Studie AG also provided neat graphics on the sides of the car using military font to coincide nwith the safari green paint finish, which, incidentally also looks like the green military color.

I have had this kit for a while and I had used the 340 for '71 'Cuda 340 Convertible project earlier this year and put the Hemi in this kit to build a Hemi R/T with a shaker scoop. Yesterday, I decided to built the Challenger, but as a Hemi T/A phantom so I can use the kit decals.

The paint wll be Model Master Hemi Orange Lacquer with a white interior.

A mockup of the body with the 'Cuda shaker hood scoop.

I also have a set of Pegasus Chrome T's that I may add instead of using the Rallye wheels.
More to come.....

In a race which was dominated by four men all battling for one title, it’s fair to say that no-one was really watching or cared about the two Lotus’ pounding round the Yas Marina. But in their final drive of the year in a race which held so much drama, Lotus kept their own drive steady to record a double finish. You’d probably be forgiven for ...

F1 commentating legend Murray Walker is waiting for your questions following the Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos.
A Red Bull one-two, with Sebastian Vettel leading team-mate Mark Webber home, means the drivers' title race goes right down to the wire in next Sunday's final Grand Prix of the season in Abu Dhabi.
Should Vettel step aside if Webber has a better chance of preventing championship leader Fernando Alonso from claiming his third drivers' crown?
And how big an achievement is Red Bull's first-ever constructors' crown, which was secured by their success in Brazil?
Pose your questions by logging in to post a comment beneath this entry.
