After almost a year of work, the V10 powered E30 BMW is ALIVE. We are currently involved with 4 BMW V10 projects, but this is the first to work in a car and it is incredible. Piper Motorsports did an incredible job building this car, and its a real pleasure to drive. We have over 150 miles of driving in a variety of traffic conditions from wide open to stop-and-go traffic, and the docile nature of the car is really nice. Its E92 suspension package is so balanced you can do what you want with it, and its motor has torque that pulls like nothing else on the road.

The car features:
- Fully sequential V12 fuel & spark by Pectel SQ6M12
- Full variable camshaft control for all 4 cams.
- Full electronic throttle control for both throttles.
- Driver adjustable traction control system with 4 settings.
- Driver selectable Anti-lock Brake system.
- Digital Pi OMEGA dashboard with multiple pages to monitor all vital functions including oil pressure, temperature, electronic oil level sensing, fuel level, water temperature, speed, RPM, Traction Control setting, Map setting and more.
- Ole Buhl Racing power management system with electronic load control and power distribution.
- Electronic cooling fan with variable speed based on radiator temp and road speed.
- Custom mil-spec wiring by Apex.
Now that the car is complete and running, it will be disassembled and painting. In the meanwhile, Apex will shrink, boot and seal all the wiring harnesses in preparation for final assembly. Expect to see finished pictures soon.
