Now that's Sexy
For those of you who missed the memo;
This past weekend Southbay Mini debuted 2 of the coolest cars to hit the Mini community, they are movie theme inspired, and there are plans for over 100 more! :eek2: I had a blast, I got to see some old friends and make some new ones as well as eat gummi bears, take some photos, and drool over two very sexy cars...especially the exhaust tips. I don't usually get excited about exhausts but man were they perty...mmmmmmm....peeeerty. So...on to the show! Here are some pics I took over the weekend for the unveiling. A portion of the team who made it possible (yep that's me on the far left) http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut6.jpg The detailed inspection and list checking before the debut http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut3.jpg Tuls and Detlman hard at work http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut2.jpg one sexy exhaust coming up http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/Debut1.jpg Detlman making the Shockwave nice and shiney http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut9.jpg My favorite the Shockwave inspired by "The Right Stuff" http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut8.jpg Custom eyes by Rogue Minis http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...ff/debut10.jpg Neo inspired by "The Matrix" (well duh) http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut7.jpg Neo's fly paint job (don't be haitin) http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...ff/debut11.jpg The crowd beginning to drool as the cars are unveiled http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut5.jpg and last but not least two of Dr.Fuh's uber genius children Pinky and the Brain http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k2...uff/debut4.jpg |

Great pics, StoopidGirl!
You caught some of the magic of those amazing cars! And remember folks, that is all paint, no decals!! |
Sweet cars! Wish I could have been there to see them in person.
I saw some other pics on another site and I really like having the area under the roll bars painted to match the car(on Neo). Wonder what that would look like on Gromit?:nod: Emily, awesome looking eyes on those cars.:thumbsup: I also really like those wheels. |
Am I the only one who looks at these cars and feels overwhelmingly nauseated by their fugliness? :lol:

|
Amazing cars and amazing pictures!
|
I like the 2nd picture especially. The cars and Tim are diamond sharp, everything else is slightly out of focus. It almost looks like a manufactured image (I mean, model cars superimposed on a background). Nice indeed.
And I agree with you about the exhaust tip. Wow! I think I want that tip. Are they selling it? Can I make it work with a factory muffler? :cool: :thumbsup: The kids are Pinky & The Brain? Which one is the idiot? |
The cars look pretty darn cool to me!!:thumbsup: It's nice when projects like this are approached as a thematic whole.:cool:
|
The owners must be thrilled! I know how good it feels when you see your "concept" come to life! :nod: :grin: The pix have great energy, MLE.
|
Thanks everyone! It was quite the experience. I hope some of you get to see them in person before thye sell...or even after they sell.
Agro-I'm not sure which one's the idiot, They're Dr.Fuh's kids so they're all going to be brain sugeons and stuff. As for the exhaust tip, I really hope he manufactures them, that would be sweet and I'll be one of the first in line, all though I think there may be a themed tip in mind for my car (I can't wait). I'll ask him about it because a few people have asked as well on another thread. |
That group shot (pic 1) is great! I like the crop.
I also like the one of Hubie's boys. |
Thanks Juan, The one of the baby Fuh's was taken with that smooth wideangle lens Kilo lent me...mmmmm
The group shot was just one of those things :P too bacd you can't see the cars in the shot a little better :) |
Amatoor shots
Someone asked if the cars are for sale. Yes they are thru South Bay (!) MINI. Ask for Amanda White. And if the buyer feels compelled to offer more than MSRP, then the entire difference goes to local charities. :thumbsup:
The cars are one-of-a-kind, show and go! https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...m/IMG_0975.jpg https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...m/IMG_0971.jpg https://www.northamericanmotoring.co.../IMG_09701.jpg https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...m/IMG_0966.jpg https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...m/IMG_0965.jpg https://www.northamericanmotoring.co.../IMG_09731.jpg |
