  • A Car Show in January!?...

    ... In SoCal, absolutely

    So I hit up my first Cali car show today. The '05 SoCal Euro GTG. It was awesome to shine up the ride, hit the sunny freeway, and meet up with hundreds of other Euros from SoCal The atmosphere was really charged and it was great to see many of the big Vortex and magazine cars in person. Not to mention the many vendors that sponsored the event. I've never seen this many modded Euros in one place. Seriously, driving around the O.C. it seemed like I was running into them at every corner! Big dish and widebodies everywhere!

    Anyways, tons of cars showed up (mine was something like #840 on the registration list ) I took a bunch of pics and thought you guys might enjoy a visual break from the cold-azzed weather in Calgary. Enjoy....










































































    Cali car show lesson #1 - Show up an hour and a half late for registration, and get parked in the exhibitor nosebleed section Oh well. The old girl was still getting lots of love. I think alot of people were surprised to see a Canadian dub there

            Awesome pics, Derick! Perhaps you should look into getting an Elise instead of that Audi....

                What Elise? I was looking at getting into the Asian chick with the Prada and Manolo Blahniks LOL

                Yeah, the Elise was pretty sweet - in that exotic, wish I could have, but will never afford, sort of way... But the crimson A4 almost made me soil myself

                    EXACTLY, the body shops here won't even touch custom stuff. When I bring up removing my front or rear rub-strips they act like I am asking them to make my car levitate. "Thats impossible!"

                      Ok, here's a thought, how about NOT showing us pics of warm weather and nice cars anymore, it just angers me .....More pics of the hotties!! On a sidenote, if I would have moved down to the US, I woulda traded in my GTI that same day for an R32 to do up......

                        Amazing pics and cars Derick. I like the pics (and the asian girl too ) and the quality of the cars is crazy, there is some serious work there and I think it is good to give us some motivation, just think what our scene could be like if we keep at it The sun is nice too

                            Good find Blair! I think that car was part of the ABD crew's lineup. They might have pictures of it on their web site maybe?
