Current Mood: Tired I got back from Vegas on Tuesday and experience major jet lag that day due to coming back home at 6 AM and going to school at 11:35. Didn't get a chance to sleep in between that time. NEways, str8 to the point... the "PIXIES" lol (i didn't take many, just mainly scenery stuff). Las Vegas:
Airplane ride from above Las Vegas
Blurry Shots cuz I was in a moving car but basically a display of shooting water dancing along with music.... pretty cool!
Vegas Night Scene
On the way to the Hoover Dam
Some Hoover Dam shots. Very nice sceneries and views. Definitely NOT for people afraid of heights lol.
Aaaaaaand my highlight of that day... As we entered the parking structure for the Hoover Dam, I saw a parked black car with a gold strip throught the center of the car... A MUSTANG SHELBY GT-H!!! I kno, i kno, to most of you, your like "Uhhhhh, its a mustang, mustangs are everywhere". This aint a normal mustang. the "H" in "GT-H" stands for Hertz... you know.. the car rental company. Yes, it's a rental car, but a highly praised and prestigious rental car. It has some aftermarket mods. It's an on-going traditon for Hertz to have Shelby GT-Hs as there top of the line rental car and they only have a few hundred of them in the whole US. I'm not kidding when I say that this car goes for just over $400 a day to rent. You also pay for wearage of the tires, the extra miles over the intial miles given after leaving the Hertz lot, as well as any other wear and tear from the car. On top of that, there is a long waiting list just to even rent it and even that waiting list is not guaranteed. I personally am not a big fan of mustangs, but I appreciate rare and highly-valued cars when I see one. Anyways, on to another topic As many of you may already know, the North American International Auto Show opens to the public tomorrow. If you know me, I'm crazy about cars especially auto design. So this entry is dedicated to the auto show and some of the cars that are most likely going to be there from pictures from the press release. Here concepts that caught my eye:
I forget the name of this concept by Chevrolet, but it's a cross-over rally vehicle. I like the aggressive, wide body style of this car. The Saab Aero (I believe)... this car opens up in a unique way... just google it, it should be there somewhere
I wanna say this car is the Mazda Kabuto but I'm not too sure on it yet. Last year an unfinished concept looked just like this so yea.
All of these pictures don't give me any descriptions of the car but I have reason to believe this is the next gen Acura NSX concept.
Nice, clean cut lines
The last generation NSX Absolutely my favorite concept vehicle right now, the Toyota FT-HS concept. It's supposedly a 400 HP hybrid sports car. The styling is just out of this world, very different and unique from any other car... even the drop top is unique by itself. The carbon fiber rims are sweet as hell, different and stylish. You'll see what I'm talkin about... just scroll down lol.

Toyota really paid attention to detail with this concept.
The all new 2008 Honda Accord Coupe concept. I was waiting to see how this will look like for awhile now. I've seen the design sketch for this, but this is the first time I seen it as an actual physical model vehicle.
I really like the rear-end and the side of the vehicle... nice, clean, simple, and stylish but...
what happened to the front-end... personally, the front end does not match the rear end. The front of the hood line changes directions too abrupt making it seem like a Chrysler or GM vehicle and less like a Honda.
Looks like a domestic car to me.
The current generation Accord
wtf... what did they do to the EVO??? I personally think they fucked up the exterior of the car... the concept before looked better than this. Even the current generation looks better than this. I'm sorry, I love EVOs but not like this. The good news is that this is just a prototype... hopefully it'll be better when it is released.
This is the previous EVO concept... I like this a lot better than the one displayed in the auto show
