Vance's Grand Opening day meet, bonus M6 and Lotus Elise video

[nsxsupra]

What an awesome day.

Vance's new shop is simply amazing. Hard work and love put into this shop really shows. We had a great time.

Got to test drove bunch cars. John/Scorp935's GTRom F1 exhaust is so addicting, I have never ever heard anything this nice on downshifting/blip throttle, oh my. I can't get that sound out of my head. Too sweet. Amazing...amazing...amazing.

Graeme's Girlfriend's M6, this car sounds good, so nice.

Definitely looking good here

Pics doesn't do this car justice, the headlights are gorgeous. Nicest sounding car I have ever driven in my life. The in car sound is simply unbelievable. High pitched to the max.

LOL Rico having fun

GTRom F1. Just my personal preference, clean, refined, and high pitched, first nsx I have ever driven that give you in cabin high pitched sound like that.

I have heard too many NSX exhausts, test driven close to 20 different NSXes, not even the Gruppe M is anywhere near as pretty sounding. Rev matching downshift is so lovely with this exhaust. Think F355 with Tubi.

ummmm...what kind of shop is this?

 

[nsxtcy85]

Tabacco use only! lol

I spotted this on the freeway, while going home this morning...

 

[TURBO2GO]

Is that a Vetron?!! :biggrin:

Hookah bar? Nothin like a good hookah and some wine!

Looks like the big boy Veyron there! Correct me if I'm wrong. Did you try anything with him? Would be no contest of course but it would've been a treat to see that thing take off hard!

When he saw my camera phone flash go off he stretched its legs a little bit, I followed him for around 10 minutes, then he got off on the exit before mine.

Vance,

Congratulations on the Grand Opening of your new Hookah and Cigar Lounge. Your vision on how you wanted the place to look, turned out great. I hope the only problem you have is "not having enough inventory to keep your customers happy".

Here are some pics of your favorite food :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Bean Burrito

A little snack before the Grand Opening

Hmmm Hmmm GOOD

 

[JDMnsxR]

What version GT-Rom exhuast are you running scorp?

 

[TURBO2GO]

What version GT-Rom exhuast are you running scorp?

He has the V5.1 with CT headers. Jason I wish you'd stop posting all these food pics. I realize I am hungry everytime I read a post of yours. Also I think you are right on the exhaust. It is AMAZING the reactions I get to my car not from its looks, but from its sound! People look for my car before they see it, because they hear something coming. I went downtown today and the way this thing sounds with the sonics bouncing off the buildings is amazing. EVERYBODY wants to see whats coming.

fwiw, I have Supersprint headers, with straight pipes.

As Dave mentioned, it's the v5.1 F1 sound... I also have a GMSC, with a GM intake, which probably has some effect on the sound.

Congrats Vance!!

That looks very unique! If I get the craving for a bean burrito and stoggy, I will make it down that way this summer to check it out (right after stopping at Olive Garden :biggrin: )!!

Dave,

LoL, I didn't even post pics from dinner last night. I only posted a fraction of pics I took. I figure people are bored with the pics by now. I should start a unofficial food thread. Food is source of life, we live to eat, eat to live. Especially good when having food with love ones or friends.

Anyway this is the pic from last night at Cuban Restaurant next to Vance's shop.

Check out the size of the steak I had. The plate was barely big enough.

 

[MikeC_587]

Jason,

Your are the Official Photographer for the OC. I will never get tired of seeing pics that you take at the events. Food, NSX's and woman, life doesn't get any better than that :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

Unless, of course we see Vance wearing one of these

BTW, can you post up more pics of Vance's new shop?

Mike

OH man... i had a buddy of mine, oscar, take me to a cuban place a few months back, and the food was KILLER.... same with portions!

I was suppose to bring Vance two new cute girl customers today, both are available too and not the same below average girls we encountered a 2 weeks ago either, unfortunately plan didn't work out.

You broke my heart:biggrin:

I thought you said my was the nicest... Can't believe you're cheating on me..lol

You broke my heart again!!!

Looks yums, Jason. Haven't been to Din Tai Fung in a few years because of the long lines, but the food is good and quite reasonable. The waits are long, but I remember the table turn-overs are pretty quick too. Not too much waiting time for the food to get to the table; especially the dumplings.

I might try to go there again on a weekday for lunch hoping the the lines won't be long.

Did you get the Laksa as Din Tai Fung as well?

 

[Oyagi]

Oh man, this thread is making me miss the Din Tai Fung we went to in Toronto over Easter. Definitely a good post track meal idea for us Canadian members in May!

 

[nsxsupra]

These are other pics of the shop from different angles. Looking awesome already, there were completely nothing just a week ago, with time, it will look even better.

 

[Tamoske]

[NSX_BOB]
