Cars spotting before CNY

Posted in Car stuff on January 25, 2009 by Stanley Carter

When CNY is near, you’ll be seeing a lot of newly bought cars on the road, or used cars that had been done up nicely, or even cars coming in from other places, such as Miri, Brunei or maybe Kuching, and some of those, are probably really nice cars as well!

Take this Mark X for instance, this is the first time I ever saw a Mark X in Sibu, looks fabulicious!

Sorry about the poor quality as I was driving my Charmant while I took this picture with my mobile, plus I have to keep a safe distance, don’t wanna risk bumping into this big luxury ride during CNY eve! LOL!

Next up, is this Naza Citra which is from a friend of mine, whom has an auto service shop called A1 just beside “鴻福海鮮舘” , he just redone his Citra and this is how it looks now:

At first glance at its bonnet, it may just look like an ordinary black painted bonnet, but if you have a look closer, you’d notice this:

CF hood?

CF hood?

Woot! It’s a CF hood…..NOT! Anyone that is familiar with CF would know that the texture is no where close to the real thing, but it was a pretty interesting try to replicate the real thing though, and if you like to know how its been done?  Well, paints applied on a layer of tiny holed mask, as easy as that.  To be honest, if I wanna go for CF, I’d go get a real CF hood, not like this, haha!

On to some weirder rides shall we? Next up we have this Myvi:

Myvi offset wheels

The moment I saw this Myvi zoomed past me at the roundabout, I’ve noticed its offset wheels, as both of us were moving, I couldn’t really tell what rim is it, but what do you guys think of such a wheel fitment on a car like Myvi?  For me, totally distasteful! LOL!  Those kinda wheels are more suited on cars like my Charmant or any other old schoolers la~ go stick with your own VIP type of wheels man! ^^

And then to end up my post, I present to you, the Ang Pow Kelisa:
