Here is few photos from yesterday japfest. What I hate once again this year was the way cars were parked, what I would do is make a paarking for jap cars outside paddock and put half of them there. Need some selection of cars and park the best inside paddock. There was few really nice cars in public carpark while I was walking to the show and what was inside...?? a lot of civics, just a civics without any good looking parts on them. Half of those cars would be kicked out and give more space for the cars which were worth to have a look. Comparing to last year this time there was a plenty of cars which cought my eyes but couldn't get any good photos of them because car beside it was park so close. To get good photos you need to wait till very end of show when they all leaving but Im sick, I have man flu and I regret I couldn't stay there till end and that I couldn't have any good photos of some of the cars there. I really like quality of cars on display this year but once again hate the way they park them... One more thing I don't like... Why Mondello don't put a big sign at the entrance how much are the tickets for the show on the day... I thought it's as always €20... so took €20 with me, walk for 5 minutes from the car to the gate where no price where write anywere to hear that this year it's €22.50, had to back to the car to find €2.50 and 10 minutes later back at the gate. So two thing I don't like... way cars were parked and issue with ticket prices.

Here is the photo of cars worth to have a look at.. there was lot more but as I said very hard to get some good photo so with runny nose I just gave up waiting for a chance for good photo:

Special Circumstances

I had never come across the "Rocket Bunny" bodykit for the Silvia.... until now.
Love the dodge classic charger / new challenger look

And some from drifting. Was there only for an hour so not many and they not edited at all so not the best looking:

Hope I'll be healthy on next Saturday for Classic Cars & Coffee.

Marcinek_55 i spotted that rev.ie Gtr in the petrol station beside me on Friday evening and again on Sunday night. It's a real beauty. Saw it at Japfest as well. Its a motoring journalist that was driving it.

Cheensbo

In typical fashion I took feck all photos at japfest but here's what I got, honestly thought I had taken more, and really need to work on my photo taking skills

V8 powered AE86 drift car, :








You can just about see the top of my car in this one

Not my pic directly but taken this weekend I believe: McLaren 688 HS, Ascot (UK)

There's a McLaren garage there just as you're coming out of the train station.

Atlantic Dawn

Is the Roller Shane Lynch's?

AMGer

Not a problem I'm ever likely to have but if I were a 675 LT owner I'd be well pissed at the way McLaren keep whoring off more versions of the same car. That 688 looks insane though, watched the vid at the weekend

Only solution is to buy a P1 or an F1.





Or both

Problem with P1 is that there is really many of them around, look at any video of "supercars in london" and almost every video have P1, any event I go for, there is a P1. it's the same with 918, they even more common than P1. The LaFerrari is rarest from holy trinity so far. F1 yes - but try to get one...

AMGer

They whored out the P1 aswell! Road legal P1 GTR

Imagine what people who bought LaFerrari feel when Ferrari showed LaFerrari Aperta and didn't let some people buy it. There is even man who sue them for not selling him LaFerrari Aperta. P1 Spider would be something unusual for McLaren.

Gearstick ? feck that.....who needs a gearstick when you can have an Ipad Pro instead.

Seriously though, a thing of pure beauty.

Oxford Street, London. In it's own shop no less.

Was in Edinburgh a few weeks ago and they have a store there too. I hated the interior, you'd be forever wiping that screen as it looked an eyesore with all the paw marks. Plus, imo, the screen was way too big. Car itself was good looking.

That's a brilliant shot - would love to see more if you have any? I don't what it is about the E39 M5, I just love them. They're such a rarity on the road these days as so many have been exported, it's nice to see such an lovely example still being used. The E60 sounds great but I never warmed up to the looks and the current F10 doesn't interest me in the slightest. E39 for me any day :cool:

Thanks for the compliment, no more of the m5 unfortunately. I love the understated looks of the E39, such a stealthy car considering its performance! Went to the launch of the Audi A5 Coupe today, so will have few more pics shortly. There was an RS3 + RS6 + R8 V10.

Sitec

Was at the launch of the new Audi A5 Coupé today. Beautiful car but a bit bland (maybe it was the colour) Interior is stunning though.




The R8 V10, RS3 are stunning up close. I'll try get the RS6 pics up tomorrow.

AMGer

66.5k euro for the RS3 Sportback - I'm assuming the RS3 saloon will be touching 70k when it arrives next year.

Saw a very nice dark grey & black i8 in Waterford earlier today

AndyBoBandy

A5 looks nice inside however I'd be hoping that screen folded away!

That's what makes me laugh. Lads on here saying "pity it's the 2.3L" when the vast majority of them will never drive a car that will ever have as much power.

It's the equivalent of lads saying they don't like a certain model or actress and call her ugly, then go home to pull the stomach of themselves in a dark room, while mammy's downstairs making their tea.

Jaysus relax there pal, we are car people talking about cars. Its a simple remark.

I love the Mustang and some people need to relax a little
