A night with big boyZ

As some of you may know, I moved to Korea last year and I took my car with me.. Daegu is da place I live and it is arguably 3rd or 4th biggest city in Korea. Since I moved, I saw many exotics around my area and Last night, I finally got to spend sometime with the owners... Most of them are self made ballers, entrepreneurs, or owns local business.. They were really down to earth (unlike cocky exotic owners) and drove their cars HARD.. I jst thought I should share some pics with ya! It was a fun night out... In pics, I know few cars aren't extoics (includ'n my car) but I thought it would be cool to share som pixs

There were M5, CLS55, 335I conv but no pics yet It would've been nice if we took the group shots... Oh well.. More to come soon~










SLK55 had everything done to it except for S/C. It sounded mean as hell...
There are a lot of exotics didn't show up for today's meeting (1 merci, couple gallardos, F360s).. We'll prolly have better turn out next week...


I need to win a lotto...damn it... lol

There are many Baller's in Pusan on the weekends that stay at the Lotte hotel. I spent 49 days there last year and every weekend there were at least 3-4 exotics parked in front.

My gf is vietnamese and she told me your baller if you have a camry over there since there's 100% tax on cars. So camry's are $40-60k.
