Imports

Don't hate on Journey!

Btw, the blue FC won. Rep the hood.

That was a real golden age of racing wasn't it.

So many of those drivers mentioned went on to run successful race teams or other automotive companies. You just wouldn't get that now.

What's that front end from? Looks almost like a cobra.

^Really? It looks stock.

It looks slightly lowered to me but yep.

 

[happycorey]

Wanna see something that looks completely retarded?

Somebody slap that man in the mouth for being stupid. That car looks absolutely terrible. I would make fun of the owner and his car to his face.

LOL damn you're salty. Import Alliance was great this year, definitely the best imo. I took 1200 pictures and going to spend a lot of time editing them..

Really? They must have stayed at the La Quinta. Last year, now last year sucked. This year was a blast. Same with 09. The turnout was awesome, and like always there was a lot of crappy cars, but IA isn't about the crappy cars. All my friends thought it was the best year yet as well.

If you want to see a funny thread about IA then I have one for you...

Some of the guys thought it would be funny to creep on the people there, and take pics of the awesome cars.

That is great. The captions just bring it all together.

Just for giggles.

They did, actually.

Where are you located anyway?

My buddies stayed at the party La Quinta too. They said it was nuts. Did you see the SIP banner hanging off the balcony? That was them. I heard somebody was shooting roman candles inside the hotel.

I'm from Florida, Palm Bay to be exact if that's what you're wondering.

I have never been to the La Quinta until Saturday night. We booked our rooms there and bailed last minute for another hotel in Lebanon that was great, since we stayed in 09 and really liked it.

It was absolutely nuts. There was police in the parking lot just hanging out, and I can only imagine were only there to make sure no one was killed, and that's it. People were racing all night on the highway exit RIGHT in front of the hotel, and then the final race ended with two guys running from the police and eventually getting caught and went to jail. The fire alarm was pulled for no reason (I imagine) but other than that, drunk people everywhere.. Everyone was hanging off the balconies, throwing beer cars down at people/cars below. It was crazy and SO glad we didn't stay there

Oh wow, I wasn't really a fan of the front end until I saw that with a complete rear end too. It looks great.

I like the back way better than the front still, the front looks like a sucker fish.

Lolz. I heard the fire alarm story and about the highway ramp. Somebody put a "Smoke.One" sticker on a police Impala...

The guys won't be staying there next year probably. That particular hotel has a history of getting rowdy. In 2009 we stayed in a much quieter area near there, around the bend and past the car wash where everybody gathers in the morning. The rooms are cheaper because that La Quinta KNOWS people are going to go ape ****.

That Saab is delicious.

If you love turbo lag and understeer, then yes..

It goes 120,000mph....I'm sold, that's a bargain at $6,000 for that kind of speed.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Typical Honda ad on craigslist.

 

[disinfected]

The funniest part is that it's a "real" SiR.

 

[Cale]

NY represent. You guys also failed to mention the low gearing of the clutch, which has lots of torque.

 

[Cale]

This thing is super smexy

 

[Carlos]

Hmm, don't really like those rims, exhaust and spoiler..

 

[Keef]

One of these things is not like the others...

 

[boiltheocean]

It's a motorbike.

...and one of those things can't get over that speed bump.
