E30 M3 as the ultimate Gran Turismo driving simulator

Jason · 12-06-2009, 08:44 PM

We bet you've never seen a Gran Turismo gaming rig as cool as this one involving an E30 M3, by Studie AG, a Japanese tuner.

The best part -- the game's controls are actually operated utilizing the E30's steering wheel and pedals! From carscoop

That's awesome - now if I could only get one of those in my basement!

03BeastCharmer · 12-06-2009, 09:39 PM

Pretty cool. Can the car still be driven?

But as a Z4MC owner the the banner in the background caught my eye even more

Wonder where I can get one of those.

BillLee · 12-06-2009, 10:04 PM

amazing, a lot of cool stuff in there!

numba1guju · 12-06-2009, 10:08 PM

looks like the Hamann Z4M. Check their website / write a mail, maybe they can get you one.

BMWinNorthdakota · 12-07-2009, 08:43 AM

Wish there was a shop like that around here...

smellthebeans · 12-07-2009, 10:51 AM

I'd rather be driving the real thing.
What a waste of a good car.

Agreed. Now that peice of automotive history as turned into... a gaming chair?

cosmos515 · 12-07-2009, 11:32 AM

I really like the setup of that shop. Has a very organic feel to it. Lots of this to touch and interact with. Many shops are set up like static display stands of trade shows. No ones fault, its just set up like a part store. This place however is very cool.

Visited Studie back in July. Awesome place and very cool owner! He even gave me a studie shirt =)

Green///Hell · 12-07-2009, 02:49 PM

AS cool as it is as the shop looks dope don't get me wrong, but
I can't believe they wasted one of the few E30 M3's around and turned it into some gaming shit

dimabimmer · 12-07-2009, 03:52 PM

cool chess board too...if they sold it, I'd buy a few...makes a nice, thoughtfull and unique gift.

TWSnow · 12-07-2009, 04:34 PM

That's not the real wheel in the car they put in Logitech driving wheel simulator in....

Scorpion · 12-07-2009, 06:14 PM
