Saw my first Nissan Leaf today. I took a picture but it's not "exotic" nor "desirable" so I won't post it. I don't want to get yelled at

Saw this at the Riverside Mall in Hackensack, NJ. Didn't seem to me that the guy driving needed the handicapped spot

Never seen velocity stacks on a NSX before, the black one sounded pretty nice when it drove away. Not positive but probably had a lightened flywheel since it's rev's would rise really quick with throttle blips.

Yes, that's the individual throttle body mod you can do for those cars. It produces around an extra 40hp or 30hp with the 3.5l engine.

It's not cheap, though. Around 5 grand, iirc.

You have a very sharp eye, both were in Georgetown near the Loews on Water St.. The two of them were with a S2000 that was also mod'ed.

I see more exotics in Georgetown than anywhere else in the Baltimore/DC area. I guess that's where the money is, although it's funny to see a F430 sitting in a traffic jam on M St on a Saturday night.

Here's a couple more I saw last year.

SLS, this carport is now the outdoor seating for PinkBerry yogurt place on M St.



GT-R on side street next to M St and the canal

Funny u mention that carport, folks office is right above the carport next to the Pizzeria on the left. It just sux that Georgetown cupcake fanatics pack the sidewalk across when the weather is warm.
Do u have anymore pix of the SLS?

Unfortunately no.

BTW, my family and I love Pizza Paradiso and Patisserie Poupon (on Connecticut)!

I'm so envious of your parents to be in that area, Gtown, Potomac River, Capital Crescent Trail (I ride my bike from Bethesda to DC on that), Museums, Washington Mall, Arlington, ....

They're living well

It's because the shop got its own damn show on TLC. I'm sure they're good, but lines like that are appalling.

That's like when I went to the Pawn Stars shop in Las Vegas. There was no line to get in but fucking hell it was slammed inside. I could barely walk around.
