Nothing fancy, just my Nikon point and shoot. My camera didn't capture all the beautiful paint jobs that the cars had, especially Rami's S2K, the gold flake STI, and the gold flake Civic coupe.

LOVED the Grand National, by the way. The guy who owns it was really sweet.

i was looking for your integra! lol..oh well maybe next time.

NOPE! Sorry. Zeroooo interest in anime, and broke like most, so no canz afford!! Would be a LOT bigger crowds if the price wasnt so steep! I can understand if there were a bunch of cars from all over like HIN was. But to see "local" rides we can see at any PZ meet is a bit deterring! (no offense to them as there is some sick sick rides on the local level!) not hatin, jus sayin! Thanks regardless i guess, still can browse the pics of the event free here!

i'm not going to lie, but in the beginning, i had ZERO interest in anime and wanted to only go to the car show itself. it was my first time ever attending IR/AM. at the end of the show/convention, i freakin loved anime matsuri, and you definitely get what you paid for. as much as you think 45-55 dollars is steep, anyone can have a blast at the convention. i was very amused by all of the people dressed up, and i really liked the rave party at night. all of the dj's went hard in the paint, and all of these anime enthusiasts party hard! plus, its incredibly fun if you chill with a group of people. i had fun with my team, the IR staff, and everyone else that made it a cool event.

on a side note..jace, thanh, or john leigh, if you read this..a suggestion for next year could be more trash cans or periodically empty out the trash cans because they all were really full most of the time.

No, I met her Saturday when she was walking around at the car show. She's even more beautiful in person!

ThaJokaa · 04-13-2012, 03:07 PM

Its Kazoku and if yall are going to start bad mouthing us (like a few members were doing at the bar) you can PM me directly. One of our members ran over 16niss's display poles and took off. Myself and 2 other members took it upon OURSELVES to walk down to 16niss, apologize, and offer to pay for any damages. We didn't need to do that in any way, shape, or form but we did it out of respect. Now if you are looking to speak with the member that did it I can happily point you in the right direction.

Agent S14 · 04-15-2012, 12:13 PM

Dunno. All he did was look up at us and drive off... :facepalm:

RidinSOLo · 04-15-2012, 01:26 PM

And just to clarify I am in no way talking down on 16niss. Hell Ive partied with Greg a few times and we were even trying to call them over at the bar to hang out with us. However, the actions of one don't outweigh the efforts of the many no matter how shitty the situation was. We apologized and we still apologize for what he did.

SpydeRick · 04-15-2012, 03:03 PM

Very ironic. I contacted 16NiSS via facebook because I do not personally know anyone on their team. At the same time Greg Lily messaged me asking to contact him. I believe I am waiting for Wayne or William from 16 to contact me about this.
