yes, some of these cars were a little over the top... i found it kind of cool to talk to my wife about it since she is obviously of a different level of vip/car knowledge, but she does love art and architecture much more than me,, anyways the ones that were her favorite cars were some of the simplest. the black majesta that was just slammed and tinted out with a decent conservative offset of wheels with a simple bbk was her favorite.

i just looked at what were the DD capabilities of the cars and some were a no go in the DD aspect for me, but that k-break car was hands down my favorite even if it was a little crazy. some of them just looked like they would be a pain in the *** in the real world and cost too much time and effort to keep up with... i would sure love to try though.

Got to give it to them.. there was some MAJOR creativity in that building. Being there in person must have been mind blowing. Thanks for the post.

Always love to see the one-off look and unique aspect of modding. There were some incredible rides there, and those were just some of the pics of the show. It definitely crushes the exhibits we have at car shows here in the states.
