Explore the original IND Portfolio feature and full build coverage.

I still remember the sleepless nights getting this Portfolio project ready. We had just two months to transform a factory Alpine White E92 M3 with only 29 miles on the odometer into a fully repainted, fully modified feature car destined for the front cover of Eurotuner magazine.

The end result was one of the cleanest E92 M3 builds of its era, combining some of the highest quality components available with an obsessive level of detail throughout the entire project. This no-budget build not only had to meet an extremely high standard in paint and build quality, but also needed to stand alongside the owner’s collection of exotic cars without compromise.

This project pushed everyone at IND to their limits. Long nights, tight deadlines, and constant pressure became part of the process, but looking back, the results speak for themselves. The Atlantis Blue E92 M3 delivered the perfect balance of aggressive styling, exotic materials, performance, and class in a way that still feels timeless today.
