I don’t know the guy personally, but I’ve been in love with this car ever since I laid eyes on it during H2Oi last year. He recently polished the centers of his OZ wheels and it made a small but impactful difference. Came across this video put together Jared Houston and thought I’d share it, but mostly because I love how sexy this car looks. Haha.

Ok so, in this post I’ll be covering the actual meet and some of the cars that stood out to me. I realize I really need a wide angle lens with such huge crowds like the one that was at IA. I didn’t get shots of all the cars I liked from the show, but I’ll always be improving on my work. It was a great meet and was pretty intense how many cars actually attended. We spoke with the organizer and he said they got around 5000 cars. That is a really impressive number of enthusiasts. It’s great to see so many people support the community. Now, the police did come to shut the show down early, so I did hear some people complaining about traveling long distances and not getting their “money’s worth”. That is understandable but for me, it’s all about the experience. The journey is just as fun as the destination.
On to the cars…
First car I spotted was this beautiful Acura RL. It’s pretty safe to say this is the dopest in the country.
I can respect the owner for shelling out for Rotiforms, but this car can use a lot of improvement. Sure does have a lot of potential.
So much right with this GS. The whole package and I’m pretty sure he was rocking a 2JZ under the hood.
Another dope GS. I love the different approached people taking to modding these cars.
These Prelude’s are slowly becoming more popular. Love the color choice.
A buddy of mine has owned a Focus for about 50 years now, so whenever I see a nice one I make sure to snap a pic of it. I’m sure he knows the owner. HAHA
Really liking how the OZ wheels look on this Civic.
Another shot of the LowMonroe EG. Again, this car was very well done and super low. Notice anything different about the shock towers?
It’s pretty crazy the amount of Subaru’s on air these days.
Damn I love this car. The shaved bay was a work of art.
A very clean Supra on Volk TE-37’s hidden in the huge parking lot.
Beautiful rhd EG on Mugen MF10’s. I have a love/hate relationship with the BYS rear wing.
This Kia Optima was seriously jaw dropping. Pictures to it no justice. So damn good.
Ah man it was so cool seeing a body drop dually. I want one so bad!!!
Another beautiful Yellow EG on BBS RS’. Simple and clean.
Cool seeing a dub in a mostly JDM crowd. Represent!
Can’t get enough of these Miata’s.
Pretty cool looking Accord coupe.
Since I don’t have a wide angle, and there was ALWAYS a crowd around this wagon, this is the best shot I could get.
I’m surprised this 5-series didn’t get more attention. The CCW fitment is on point. Very well done.
Some old school Jaguar love. If only it was a V12…
Would have chosen a different set of wheels, but this NSX was really well done.
I’ll leave you guys with some old school goodness. So good, but damn I wish he would’ve gotten some “real” SSR’s instead of the Rota replica.
Anyways that about does it. I did miss a crap load of cars out at the meet, but like I said, I’ll get better with it. The last post on IA will be more focused on Unique Auto.
Thanks for looking!
So after taking about 600 pictures plus video I think I’m finally ready to post up my H2o coverage. H2O is easily the most anticipated weekend of the year for me and many car enthusiasts. Seeing thousands of modified cars take over such a beautiful strip on Ocean City is some what surreal. There really isn’t a better setting then Ocean City, filled with hotels lining the strip and miles of straight road to cruise up and down. This was my 5th year attending and it has gotten better every year. My crew and I stay Carousel condo’s and have loved every part of it. Recently the security has been really strict so we may be moving on to try out other condo’s. Anyway’s, on the the coverage.
Showed up at the hotel, with a parking lot full of modded cars.
As soon as we got there, the trash talk and setting up for runs started. Damn street racers.
Really bad shot, but this Volvo sounded like absolute BALLS on the strip. A complete shock. Something about 5-cylinder engines.
A couple of the hidden gems in the Carousel parking lot.
Better have your A-game with your car unless you like getting joked on by the peanut gallery above.
Walked across the street for some pizza and saw this beauty. It’s hard to tell but its dropped pretty significantly on 23 inch Porsche reps. This thing was SICK to say the least.
After some foolery at the condo, we headed out to the convention center, WAY too late. Here is Alloy, being Alloy.
There was some real quality left at the convention lot.
Madwrapz(correct me if I’m wrong) bagged on Rotiform’s with a off-white wrap. Looked great.
Sparky Mark and friend with really nice setups this year. Everyone is on Rotiforms!
Gorgeous S2K slammed on a set of CCW’s.
As we were walking back to the hotel, I found this hidden gem.
As it was about 4am that about ended our night. My coverage continues saturday at around 2pm, as we hit the car wash.
Everytime I see this car it amazes me. Crazy flares and static. Pretty crazy I saw this in Chicago and here it is in Maryland.
Smooth R32.
Bagged MK2 on Diamond Racing steelies.
One if my subtle favorites from the show. Classic E36 M. It’s crazy how low these M’s can get.
Back at the convention center, the parking lot was PACKED. First thing that caught my eye was this lowered Escalade. It really shows the randomness of the cars that attend this weekend. Things like this make it a must-attend every year.
Yep, that’s a stanced out Nissan Sentra. lol Crazy.
This was pretty interesting. Merc on Bentley wheels.
For me, this was the favorite car of the weekend. Big body BMW dropped on OZ wheels with an Alpina kit. So BOSS! Definitely had me on autotrader lol.
Another super nice 7-series.
I absolutely LOVE this Prelude. Such a classic with the RS wheels.
This Lexus was actual debuted at H2O weekend. Shows you how serious this weekend is to many.
Yep, that a small block chevy motor in a E36.
Will have more pictures of this beauty later. It’s packing something special.
This car shocked everyone. Built and painted in 2 days, sitting on 15×10 with an offset on the negative side of zero, it broke necks all weekend. It’s a daily too. Damn this EG had some road presence.
Since my father owned a couple 5000/200’s I’ve always had a soft spot for them. This one was packing 400hp.
Another Audi my father owned, the V8.
Cant help but love a rusted out 80’s Volvo on widened steelies.
Beautiful Nismo 350z on Volks.
Love the clean lines of Saab’s version of the WRX.
Bagged Audi TT on Rotiform’d RS’.
Damn, love these SRT-4’s. Corvette wheels is a great looking change from the norm.
On the subject of corvette wheels, they also look great on S4’s.
I’ll leave part 1 with a beautiful AP1 on BBS’. Hopefully I’ll have part 2 up tomorrow, with the rest of saturday. What you see so far, just scraps the bottom of the barrel. More cars to come!
