Nitto Tire’s Auto Enthusiast Day

August 3, 2015

Nitto Tire held their third Auto Enthusiast Day this past weekend at the Angel Stadium here in Anaheim, California. The show was free for spectators, as well as for those participating in the car show itself. Though the weather was scorching hot, thousands came to enjoy the many show and performance vehicles displayed at the show. Aside from the car show, Nitto held drift demos with those part of their Formula Drift team, including Mad Mike Whiddett, along with truck and bike demos on the side.
Item-B’s RX-7 holding it down in front of the Hoonigan booth caught my eye as I first walked into the show.
Perfect styling accompanied by the livery.

Odi’s 240sx.

Mad Mike’s Miata along with himself and a fan.

AutoFashion brought out their NSX

Liberty Walk Challenger
Not part of the show itself, but this Liberty Walk Lamborghini was sitting outside of the entrance to the show.

Another car that caught my eye was Street Faction’s 240sx with 2JZ-GTE swap, fitted with Rocket Bunny aero.
No one and nothing is safe from the “What are thoooooooose?!” epidemic, as can be seen by the little boy.

The original owner of this car came from Chicago and sold it recently. I am guessing this is the new owner’s setup. Glad to see this GS still alive and still rocking the Benz bumper.
My buddy John’s Camry fitted with the rare TRD lip kit and other JDM goodies.

Jerod’s new setup. Car is always changing every time I see it.
Geo’s new S14. He used to have one of my favorite S2000’s here in SoCal. He now has my favorite S14.

Mike Vo’s GS. Surprised it isn’t wrapped a different color this time.

AirRunner line up.

Dad teaching his son well.

Love this MK3 Supra with gold plated everything.
Many classics showed up as well, like this Mini truck.
One of my favorites was this Toyota Corolla

Infiniti M30 dressed up as a Nissan Leopard, as it’s known in Japan.

I bumped into someone taking this picture. Sorry :P
