'THE Silhouette' - Car Scoop of the Day | BMW E38

in photography •  7 years ago

Caught this car on the street. Freshly waxed and immaculate condition. This is a titan-silver E38 728i Facelift 7 Series with original 20" Alpina rims on Michelin Sport Tires. The windows are subtly tinted. The owner had the bumper strips painted in carpaint - usually they would have the thin chrome stripe as this vehicle does not have Shadow-Line chrome deletion (as can be evidenced by the chrome trim around the windows).

Probably one of the coolest and most timeless silhouettes BMW ever put out.

Perfect silhouette! Though I prefer few other rims :D

Alpina wheels - a love or hate relationship. I love them for their offset:

Then again the classic BMW parallel spoke is cool as a cucumber...

Yeah, I think the love/hate has something to do with the center piece diameter. I think it's too large or too small :D

Yeah, very characteristic and probably the reason they made it smaller in size and visual appearance on the later models of the rim:
