In 1985, Gemballa transformed a canary-yellow BMW 635CSi into a one-of-a-kind beast, reportedly for Uday Hussein, Saddam’s son. The car featured a handmade widebody kit, quad exhausts, Recaro seats, and a gadget-packed interior including a built-in TV.
The build reportedly cost up to $125,000, nearly half of which went to Gemballa’s custom work.
Its last known sighting was in 2003, abandoned and covered in dust behind razor wire in Baghdad, with a U.S. soldier pictured beside it.

BMW PC builds from the early 2000s
Modders were cutting BMW kidney grilles into desktop towers, wiring blue LEDs as headlights, and adding clear side panels like exposed engine bays. The E46 3-Series was the main reference point.
None of it was official or sold as a kit. Parts came from eBay, junkyards, and PC mod shops—then were cut, glued, and hand-wired for LAN parties and forum flexing.



Mid Night Porsche Works 930 Turbo
The legendary “Emperor of the Wangan,” owned by Mid Night’s first chairman. From its early Tomei Racing days, the car endured relentless tuning, countless engine failures, and nonstop top-speed battles. Its first Yatabe run recorded 287.6 km/h; three years later, it reached 302.52 km/h—but that still wasn’t enough. Determined to surpass RUF’s Yellowbird, the car was sent to Porsche engineers in Germany with a target of at least 340 km/h.
The machine became so iconic that it directly inspired the “Blackbird” Porsche in the Wangan Midnight series. By then, there was no question it was among the fastest cars in Japan, and every serious driver had heard the rumors surrounding it.
