Finally! T&E E92 335i Drift Machine.

After so many months of waiting, its finally out. Takahiro Ueno finally put his Toyota Soarer, a car he has driven since D1 debuted, into the garage. And now, he finally debuted his new drift machine, a BMW 335i. He pulled out the 3.0 liter twin-tubrocharged motor and replaced it with legendary 2jz-gte motor which is bumped up to a 3.1 liter. The transmission is a Hollinger six-speed sequential gear box. And of course as always, he runs with Advan tires, this time with the new Advan Neova ADO8. The only thing I did not expect was the graphic design of the car, I was assuming he would keep the famous Ferrari red color with the Vertex/T&E graphics, but considering it a whole different concept, it is a good looking change. Now we just have to wait for the performance of the car, see where it takes Mr. Ueno this year in D1. I definitely cannot wait to see a E92 Bimmer drift a wide bank at 100mph.This is a car that has sharp lines and a sleek display that will look like a clean drift machine. Good luck to Ueno for 2009.
