Toyotafest 2011

Just came back from Toyotafest and here are some pics I took with my cell. I know, I know, no Hondas/Acuras, but I'll be sitting in a Lexus soon

Wrong section...I have a feeling you'll need to repost this in Car Talk.

Not to be a dick, but there wasn't one car in the pictures that I liked. I can appreciate the effort it took to get them there, though.

I've never got the point of it, cars are meant to be driven in my mind. Mods that ruin performance dont mmake sense to me. I get the aesthetic appeal, but function over form always

although slammed cars dont look good to me either. Drops that lessen the wheel gap are good but as soon as you start tucking i dont like it.

im a huge fan of the white IS (hes over on c-lexus). i think its just a bad angle of the car. some pro shots look really dope. all he needs to do is lose the plate and mold that lip kit.

FYI..."hella", "sick", & "dope", are all vernacular terms that are passé.

some of those body kits are just fugly... i was never a fan of the poke/flush/hella look... don't get me wrong, some VIPs are really nice with the long lines, drop and deep dish wheels... but im in for more subtle mods...

that 2JZ-GTE in that IS prob makes crazy hp... and i on the plate on the LS 'BENZ LOL'....
