Hoa's Imola Orange NSX - photo shoot

[octechgeek]

Over the weekend, a few Socal NSX'rs (including myself) were hanging and and I just couldn't restrain myself from taking some photo of Hoa's Orange beauty. Especially with the newly added Project Mu BBK.

Below is the link to the entire gallery, I just posted some pics up in this thread for teaser purposes.

Love the wheels!

 

[TURBO2GO]

The car looks great. Do you have just a normal sideshot of this car? do you know what kind of wheels those are? It is lowered, right?

Sorry,
I do not have sides shots of the car, personally I find shots like sides and front are boring angles. We all know what an nsx looks like from the side, front, rear, top, and bottom. Photography is to bring out the angles we overlook and to also bring out all the beauty in the lines seeing it at a varity of angles and light source.

Is there a reason why you would want a side shot? Are you planning on buying the wheels or do you just want to see just to see?

If you really need a side shot, I can ask Hoa (owner of the car) to take a point and shot camera and email you the picture?

 

[TURBO2GO]

Well I agree with you, in that if you are trying to showcase photography work, then all the shots presented here are very artistic. But I feel like I don't really get to see the whole car in any one shot. A straight side shot, as boring as it is, lets me see the whole car, its stance, how the wheels look on it, the BBK, etc.

Yes, I would possibly consider these wheels, if their performance is as good as my factory wheels, which I have to find out about. I don't know if they are cast or forged for example. And I am not sure what those extreme offsets do to handling although it looks good.

I don't want to put you through a lot of extra work. If you do by chance take some side shots, it would be much appreciated. Are the wheels as light in color as they look in the pics? black pearl sounds like it should be pretty dark. Is the flash making them look lighter?

Do you know if the car is lowered and by how much? erick do you know the weight of the wheels? And do they only come in black pearl? Is there a reason why he has no center caps?

Here you go.."your wish is my command." Side view, this is the only side view shot I found thoughout the entire shot. Hope this helps.

The car is lowered, I'm not sure by how much exactly, but the suspension setup are Zeal Coilovers. Really nice stuff.

 

[TURBO2GO]

Wow... thanks. So would you say these pictures are an accurate representation of the wheel color in person?

One of the cleanest NSX's i've seen. I'm not a big fan of orange but this orange and the lambo orange are my favorite. No trick photography here... the car is in mint condition! by the way great photography Hac!
