I ALMOST GOT TOTALLY ****ING RUN OVER BY JAY LENO IN A HONDA S800.

Anyway. I didn't get pics of that though. I didn't even take pics of his S800 period, seeing as I eschewed it for a far more interesting coupe.

...I only really get to appreciate car shows after I review my digital camera, as it's too hard to lose track of what's even around you... Too many cars in the background I wish I'd checked out more thoroughly :P

Nice show, hope it grows, think the crowd would have been a bit more interesting if there were some cars delving SLIGHTLY further into the 80s... tRhough I didn't stay for more than an hour. My car stayed in the parking lot in any case (where half the action was )

Apologies if my portrayal of the show is mostly biased towards what I found interesting, I think there were a few rows of Hondas I completely ignored, as well as most of the RX7 section. Don't worry, all the dozens of Z pics are at the very end, and as for 510s... So many I almost didn't bother, lol. Same with Mazda Familias. Most of them awesome, just picture an awesome 510 in your head and you won't be far off.

My fave of the show had to be one of the badass orange Zs with an RB and 432 badging, but I'm not sure which one that is now, hopefully you'll be able to tell which one I mean in the pic :P Then again, my favorites are always clean stock cars anyway, so...

Let's start out with early Celicas, as I'm totally, totally gay for them... Even in uglyish, badass primer. lol. I'd love one of these things... I need something old enough to legally stuff an SR20 or RB in



I'd even be fine with a coupe or two...



Even though fastbacks are SO much more impressive to me...





610, 710. God I want these...





A few 510s I did snap... Alarming number have stock engines, lol.







1200



Honestly I prefer B210 styling :P



Familiar 810...



Alright, never seen one of these before... Here's three of em. They're even more ****ing gorgeous in person btw.



Some other sort of um. Mazda.



My girlfriend wants this, but I do too.



Unfortunately without surfboard indent, but horrible panel fit is present so...



Big bumper Familia



Mitsubishi had a miniscule aisle...



Cool Yota.



Kujira Crowns rule a bit, don't they.



So do Centuries...



WANT Soarer. I came away from this show with a positive impression of Toyota, at least.



Not Jay Leno



...Whoa. Caption it.



And another! This one had the JDM dohc head visible underhood...



Let's earn a few Nissan points back with Skyline time. Hakosukas, fake GTRs, still hot.





...And the first new GTR I've seen that wasn't on the back of a car hauler. Alright, I admit it: In person they have something NO camera can capture. Or at least I can't IRL they look wedgy and gorgeous, like a Lambo/Z/Celica.



Maybe just cause this one's lowered in the weeds...



...Oh yeah, Honda Zs. Cool colors anyway, I'd love one.



Forgot this Supra... Mostly taken as I LOVE the wheels...



Love the wheels on this Z too...



Z BOMB!!!



I like the beateresque grimace of this one...



Beat, yet still cool (cause it's citrus) 280. I wish I'd registered mine, it'd have been one of four



Orange.



...Oh yeah, some sort of Mazda. For sale. Tempted. Back looks like a Datsun Violet.



Saw a Ferrari F430 on the way home, wasn't compelled to take a pic.
