Hong Kong Cars **1st July Update** WARNING: 56k Meltdown!

[Rossell]

I agree with you it looks better in the metal. However it is absolutely tiny. If your 6" 4 then you have no hope.

Which is why I can't have one

Well today i saw my friend Neil's Dad's new Mazda RX7 Twin Turbo ''Efini'' Type ''R'' and the Guy who lives across the road from me owns a Crimson'y Red R33 GTR. So it's all good here

 

[Rue]

Stopped taking the old camera out for a while but here's a car from a couple of days last week...

R33 GT-R (Missing front splitter)

Legacy B4 RSK (Interesting colour - is that stock?)

Nissan Gloria (VIPed to the max! You should have heard it!)

Nissan Laurel (Is it a Laurel or a Toyota Crown or what?)

Toyota Mark II (Chaser's sister car)

BMW (Zim zimmer!)

Daihatsu Naked Turbo (Avert your eyes!)

Skyline GT-T

Toyota Mark II (Another one)

Porsche 996 Turbo (Yes please! Get rid of that upholstery though)

Skyline GT-T (Again? Yawn!)

Integra Type-R (Gotta love the old 'teg!)

Ferrari 360 Modena (Almost didn't get this one)

Subaru Impreza 20K (First sighting for me)

Toyota Altezza RS200 (Horny!)

Toyota Trueno AE111 (Initial D lives on - almost)

 

[CDailey]

Why are all your pictures at an angle?

 

[Rue]

Because I'm always on the top deck of a bus

 

[[]AzNDrifter[]]

God, I wish I was in you shoes.

 

[CDailey]

Because I'm always on the top deck of a bus

Oh, ok.

 

[BigJamesGTI]

hehehe, i wondered how long it would be before someone questioned the authenticity of my sightings

When I moved to Hong Kong from England I was astounded by how many nice cars there were/are. I guess it's the same with any rich city really. Have you ever been to Monte Carlo? Wow!

I'm not making it up though, BigJameGTI. It's sad enough already that I sat on the bus writing down the cars that I saw, let alone sitting infront of the computer making it up.

Tip: Come to Hong Kong for your next holiday and see for yourself!

Now that I have just seen the huge collection of photos I would like to retract my earlier "doubting thomas" comments.
Have you a pic of the new shape accord estate or aerodeck or whatever they call it - Its the new one with the window thats quite small at the side near the back ?

 

[Rue]

This one...? Haven't seen the estate version yet

 

[CDailey]

This thing?

 

[Danny]

Pssst....I think he means the tuned version.



How long has it been since I've posted in this thread?

NO NO I meant that one - I really love that car, its futuristic yet doesnt resemble a large bubble on wheels !!!

I love its lines and how the rear window smalls off towards the rear of the car.

I see one every so oftern near me in the met blue with tinted windows - they are tinted in a silver/blue color and it looks really nice.

Family car for me if its still around when the time comes !!!

 

[Night_Drifter]

[knightinwhite86]

Do you see any 300zx's? If you do could you please takes some pictures for me?

 

[Rue]

Unfortunately not when I've had the camera, but I've taken some pics in the last hour - the pick of which I'll put up later

 

[Danny]

and some DB7s while your at it, matey

 

[Rue]

Hello again! Here's a little update with some pics that I took on a couple of days last week. While all the cars may not be snarling, horse-power packed beasts, I took photos of the cars I thought you guys might find interesting. Hope you like them...

Silvia S15 (Not pretty, but still nice)

Lotus Elise (Popular car, but costs silly money in HK)

 

[Rue]

OK, so that was a pretty good afternoon for seeing cars. Not quite as good as the hour that I spent ruining my health standing on a bridge above a traffic jam last Sunday though. Get a load of these, I hope they were worth it!

ER34 Skyline GT-T (Are those wheels off a Silvia?)

Mitsuoka Galue-II (Basically, wtf?)

Toyota Chaser (Yeeha!)

Ferrari F355 GTS (You've got to wonder why the owners of the GTS don't paint that panel body colour!)

Honda Accord Si-R (I said I wouldn't post anymore, but this was nice)

AMG CL55 (It was the pace car for Formula 1 - Need we say more?)

Toyota Altezza RS200 (If this is Pokemon...

R33 Skyline GT-R (Seconds after this, the battery on my camera ran out. Thank you, God!)

That's all folks!

 

[rollazn]

Hey, Chaser do you know what the Toyota Century runs? Like how much power or torque. I know that it was rated 280ps/276hp but what is the real output. Also what do it run in the 0-400M?

I always thought you were the one for stats and figures Unfortunately, I am as in the dark as you about the Century, mate. Let's see if a bit of Googling can solve that...

 

[rollazn]

Well the Toyota Century isnt all that well known... but yeah ill search it up!

 

[Rue]

You're right. I can't find anything!

 

[rollazn]

Its not going to be all that fast I dont think. It should weight a bundle and with that power it must be very slow. Unless the power is more than 280hp. Its pretty gay to have 280hp with a V12 or even rating a 280hp on a V12 is just crazy.

 

[Rue]

OK, finished putting all my pics up for now. Enjoy what's there until next time!

Chaser

 

[Race Idiot]

Wow, people in hong kong sure like their black wheels.

Both those Altezzas had their stock wheels powdercoated black, they don't look half bad like that.
