BMW 328Ci with Status Racing Seats Featured in Performance BMW Magazine

Here at Status Racing we are huge fans of the BMW E46 and Chase Donnelly’s 328iCi is among one of our favorites! His BMW is far from just any another 3-series on the road and that is mainly because Chase has spent over a decade building every inch of the car.  He shared these images with us from when the car was featured in Performance BMW Magazine. It showcases a set of Status Racing carbon fiber Ring GT seats in a Icon Configuration. Check out the photos below and the mod list below!
