This BMW 135i (E82) originally came with a turbocharged 3.0 L inline-six. However the owner decided to swap that for a 4.0 L S65B40 V8 from a BMW E92 M3 capable of 285 kW (382 hp). The owner also swapped the rest of the factory transmission for the six-speed manual transmission from the E92 M3. The coupe rides on Bilstein B6 shocks and stops thanks to E92 M3 brakes. On the body the owner installed BMW 1M bumpers and fenders and a custom carbon fiber diffuser. A set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires are mounted on 1M 19-inch wheels. Listen to Jacob Moshokoa from Cars.co.za explain the car while driving it in the video below.
