A Blog Your Not Reading That You Should Be

Do You Come with the Car?

I wanted to spend a quick second to introduce you to one of my favorite automotive related websites for the moment. The site is run by “An anonymous auto show model dishes about what really goes on behind the scenes, our interactions with visitors and what you need to know about how to behave in public. Hint: Don’t touch me,” according to her website.

She dishes about the life of an auto show model and the dumb people she interacts with on a constant basis. She has a witty sarcasm behind her words and quite the sense of humor. If you want some more insight on why you don’t attend auto shows around the USA or need a good laugh this is your go to website. She has to be one of the best choices for giving you a great perspective of events that take place and some top notch diction to really set a quality tone for her posts.

A Day In The Life with Me – February 2nd

February 9th, 2010

Lucky the Cat

Before this website I use to be really good at life blogging and lately I am just way to busy to get around to it. So last Thursday I had a really full day so I made sure to document it for the blog. The first photo above is Lucky who is my roommates cat. He is quite a character and greeted me before I left in the morning with him in the “play dead” position. Funny story actually is that the cat use to belong to Daijiro Yoshihara.

Chick-Fil-A

I headed down to Orange County for the first leg of my day and off Highway 55 there happens to be a Chick-Fil-A which I grabbed some breakfast at. They only have a few of these in California so when I am near one it’s a must for breakfast.

1957 Porsche

1957 Porsche

I saw this 1957 Porsche Carrera on Highway 55 heading to Hyundai. This thing looked flawless and was well maintained and cared for by the owner. It had a great sound to it as he flew by me down the highway.

Hyundai North America - California

My first stop was Hyundai North America to pick up some Genesis seats. Miles was a great help finding some seats for a new project we are doing. We will have more on project coming to the website soon.

AMG Black Mercedes

I had to drop off my Mercedes carburetor to get rebuilt since it has been having some issues after it idles for a few minutes. In the parking lot is a red Mercedes CLK63 AMG BlackĀ  that looked fantastic. A white M3 was also in the corner of the parking lot when I swung by.

Super Street Magazine

After dropping off the Mercedes parts in Orange County I headed up to Manhattan Beach to shoot some Wrecked Magazine voice overs. Peter from Modified Magazine lives at the apartment we were recording at and had this nostalgic Super Street Magazine cover hanging in the dining room.

Wrecked Magazine Voice Over

Wrecked Magazine Voice Over

Nik did an awesome job with our Wrecked Magazine voice overs. She is the voice of a tutorial we are releasing later this month. This second photo is Nik engrossed in deep thought about her favorite Formula Drift driver Rhys Millen.

Los Angeles Traffic

After dropping off Nik and heading into Downtown Los Angeles I found some traffic of course.

Sixth Street Bridge - Los Angeles
Here I am crossing the Sixth Street Bridge heading into Los Angeles. This bridge is always empty and has a distinct look and feel that I just love as you drive into downtown.

Downtown Los Angeles
Coming off the Sixth Street bridge you get a great view of Downtown Los Angeles. It’s also not very often you see clouds around Los Angeles so I really liked this shot.

Forza Motorsport 3 Xbox 360

Sitting on a desk when I walked in to my meeting was a Forza Motorsport 3 Xbox 360. Very few of these were made and it features an Audi R8 and a carbon fiber styled front.

Halo 3 ODST Xbox 360

Snoop Dog x Famous Stars Straps - 10 Year

I also scored two gifts while visiting including Halo 3 ODST and a Snoop Dog x Famous Stars Straps 10 Year Anniversary Party t-shirt. The photograph of Snoop Dog was shot by Estevan Oriol.

ID Agency
The last shot comes from the ID Agency where some awesome classic cars are sitting right now. My favorite is this blue Chevrolet truck you can see in this shot. After leaving here it was off to home in lots of traffic.

Here is a snapshot Jon from DSTROYR sent me from the other night. I am in Daijiro Yoshihara’s Discount Tire S13 that we released how to build on Monday at Wrecked Magazine. Jon is in the DSTROYR x Van Halen IROC.
