Events; Xtreme International Autoshow: Paid Attractions Part 1
Posted on January 7th, 2009 No comments
The Jakarta Monster itself - its actually an Isuzu Trooper modified to look like a Hummer, complete with tons of ICE to back it up. Come to think about it, there was another Isuzu Trooper that was being facelifted to look like a Hummer in Sunway a few weeks back....Hmmmmm
Of course, what were you wondering? Our coverage of the Xtreme International Autoshow is not over yet!
In this post, we’re going to feature all the rides that were in the stadium, after the ticketing counter (RM25 on the spot, RM28 if purchased at any Axcess outlets). As promised, there was the Jakarta Monster, Thai super lowriders with hydraulics as well as a couple more exotic bodykits on display, but having said that, and being there on a Saturday evening, we did not see the so-called two-headed mini nor the Porsche 928 hotrod. If someone has pictures of them cars, do let us know! More goodies when you click the link!
A slammed Hilux using airbag/hydraulic suspension greeted us on the way in too. Notice the couple at the back? How sweet!
Another shot of the Hilux. What a way to start the show - with two trucks! I particularly like the smoked headlights, it reminds me of a popular Honda Jazz mod LOL
A closeup of the Hilux's hydraulic/airbag system. Heck, ill just go with airbags since they're pneumatic anyways!
Slammed and wide-bodied Jazz....Thai owners really take their rides to the extremes, but yet, they are still streetable!
His interior is not left untouched, either. Anyhow, it would be a nightmare to be surrounded by nothing but fiberglass, meters and (admittedly, a tacky) shiny paintjob.
Okay, its a Yaris, its pink, and its slammed. I can't think of anything else to say bout it though....
Ah, the perennial Toyota-bashing favorite. I must say though in its defense, that the mods on this particular one is much more palatable. And the fact that its not a dugong, perhaps.
WoW!!! Look at meeeee, I have a Huge Muffler and GT Wings!!!
Think this Gen2 looks normal?
A peek at the back reveals.....nothing except for that black-on-black striking pattern and the LED glow....
Then, you realize the teeny weeny sign up in front, and when you take a picture with your flash.....holy mother of pearl paints!
Check out the cool design on the rear of the car. Simply mesmerizing! Another work of art from D-Sticker Station...
We truly apologize for this picture. We cant even see what engine it is, thanks to the chromed parts that threw the camera's focus right off the charts! BTW, a turbo that high is not only for the go, its kinda cool to look at too.
Talk about a full car - it brings its display kit along!
E46 headlights on a truck! I love 'em Thai mods!
Is this the long-lost brother of the Kenari-eyed Datsun 120Y station wagon? Paintjob looks the same.....so does the ICE..
A precursor of what's to come.........*hehe*
One of D.A.D's demo cars along the strip, complete with VIP boot styling and etched acrylic!
Its not much, but sometimes, its about the detail; a custom water tank with an airline going through it - in the boot, complete with clock!!
A Fabulous display of Opulence. Then again, I threw out my steel spare tire a long time ago :/
I'll take two, both in matte black and with carbon hoods, thank you.
Somehow, a Passo-converted MyVI doesn't look too hot in matte black
Ebony and Ivory VIP-style Jazz-es
A peek into an E30's engine bay.....or is it an E36? Someone enlighten me please!
A V8 Scooby loaded with fuel-saving gadgets from V-Class Motorsports..
This means that we're back to a VIP styling podium. Swarovski crystals and matte black paint is a statement of its own...
Mmmmmm matte black paint....
This area is full of Junction Produce enthusiasts - one of the largest VIP-style community in Malaysia
This custom Japanese nameplate says it all....
This image seriously screams out VIP...from the leather seats, to the enclosed, LED-lit woofers and the row of mini TFT monitors in the back....wait...why are they pointing towards the rear?
Another look at the row of TFT LCDs.....guess what movie this is? Hints; Tom Cruise and a plane that starts with 'Tom'
ICE fans would probably get orgasmic from the number of screens in this car alone!
We're REALLY sorry. This would be the last time I'm posting up a mini screen picture for a long, long time!
We checked - its not blinding when viewed from the inside!
More VIP visual cues here...
They see me rollin', they hatin'
The RX300 was sagging, thanks to the weight of the ICE in the boot. NOT!
What we think as the owner is pumping up the volume on this ride.
What a way to spend your money! Monogrammed windows!
Please, do not drink and drive!
A cocktail in the car.....picnics only, we presume!
This Estima just had it's interior visited by a brown cow..
This Wish did not use Jadeite for its front ornaments, therefore we cannot act jaded.
A lovely parting shot of the VIP-style area
Check out the shine!That’s about it for the first part of this post; as it’s getting a little too long in the tooth, and to speed the page for your viewing pleasure (yes, we know, the site’s speed can be a little ghey sometimes), we’re splitting the paid attractions into two parts. Watch out for the second part tomorrow!
