IND Distribution creates a Portfolio project with Martin D. People all around the world have fallen in love with the automobile since it’s creation over 100 years ago. Entire lives have been dedicated and lost to our love for the automobile, and for the feeling that it can give. Anyone who wants to navigate the aftermarket performance industry must have a good understanding of the allure of the sports car and what it’s meant to humans since its invention. It’s always easy to spot those in the business who do not have a genuine love for cars, as their misguided intentions will always reveal themselves in the way they create their own project cars. Unfortunately, too many businesses in the car industry have a singular focus on the bottom line, and forget completely the love for automobiles that drew them into the business in the first place. When someone in this industry loses their passion and love for cars and begins to only view each car, each client as another dollar figure, all of their work suffers. They no longer service their clients as they should. The products these businesses choose to sell will often change, and the quality will suffer. These businesses will often choose to sell product built to a lower standard at a lower cost, simply to make money. These businesses will also create uninspired project cars, and this is perhaps where that lack of passion is most evident. Too many cars getting full page features in magazines these days are merely smoke and mirrors. Friends of mine in the magazine business have told me of cars showing up to photoshoots having to be pushed off of a trailer because the motor hasn’t run in months. I hear of cars with enormous widebody conversions and motorsport inspired liveries that still have factory braking components all the way down to brake pad, terrible quality tires of unknown branding and origin that barely have enough grip for the street, and a rear muffler as the car’s only performance modification. These cars are not an expression of a shop’s love for automobiles as they should be, but rather an inauthentic push for profit, and profit alone. This state of the business is unacceptable to IND as a company, and we knew we had to declare war. Fortunately for us, Martin contacted us shortly after, and his love for cars was clear in every telephone call conversation we had. Martin loved all things automotive and had previously owned many amazing cars from Europe and Japan. His tastes enveloped the entire spectrum of performance cars, and allowed us to create a car that was designed purely for his enjoyment. We did not have to pay any attention to current trends, to what is popular or what could be seen as unacceptable, but only to Martin’s own passions as a seasoned automotive enthusiast. Thank you, Martin, for giving us the opportunity to declare war on those who have forgotten what modifying cars is all about. MOD LIST-

:bow::bow:I'm not much of a BMW guy but geeezus that thing is awesome! Nice work once again!:golfclap: |
M3 RS ;) :drool: |
Wow just wow, I could do with a smaller rear wing, but it seems obvious the car is intended for track use which makes it more then okay! IND is really setting the standard for the BMW aftermarket. |
LOVE it; that CF rear diffuser is STUNNING!!! |
all i can say is WoW...love everything about it, from the TE37's to the sequential shifter +nardi steering wheel! |
This is definitely one of my favorite cars that you guys have done! Dropped it like it's hot! |
I have to see this car in person!! Amazing work IND!! Oh my lord Martin!! |
|
I straight blew my load on the first shot!!!! This car is stunning, and damn it is hunkered down perfectly. The wing doesn't look good, but I am assuming its functional. I would dump it if I were not on the track. That CF diffuser is art. Also- I love the license plate! |
