In the beginning

So, exam is inching nearer and nearer but what the heck! The biggest motorshow in Malaysia is currently running from the 26th May until the 4th of June 2006. We (James, Jonathan, Rick, Jim and Philip) left university at 1040 and arrived there at 1130 due to the lousy co-driver's direction. The Lotus designed APX due to launch as a Proton SUV between 18-24 months from now according to reports.

This is a beautiful piece of art to me but sadly to many they dislike the rear end of it. Moving on to wackier automobiles. There was a pick-up that was pimped by Clarion which looked like an alien life form.
At this booth where they showcase live to the audience the art of airbrushing. The skull helmet and the pink (yucks) Kenari were the highlight at the booth besides the free show.At the same level of the same hall there parked silently the Port Klang 4x4. What?@! Why on earth must someone/shop name their pick-up Port Klang? I just don't get it but we just can't argue how well Malaysian have adopted and implanted the Malaysia Boleh attitude. Use it "dengan was-was". Thus says the Hokkien "lang", "Gua hua Port Klang, lu hua hamik chia?"There were more weird, funny and mind boggling things that happened. These I will share tomorrow as I'm too tired now. Watch out for the next edition of KLIMS 2006-The Weird and the Beautiful...

The helmet is definitely a piece of art. To be honest, I don't really like how it looks, but as an artist, that is definitely a piece of art, even though I'm not a big helmet art fan. And that alien car is awesome...especially with all those extra parts put in to make it look the way it did. Sweet deal, I always enjoy your pictures too ^_^

temme:the lotus apx would, hopefully, be launch in malaysia by the end of next year as hinted by its chairman.then you can ask your dad to buy you the canggihfied picture of the car while i own it..ahaha.

matt:thanx for the compliment. ya should see them airbrush the cars. although the pink colour isn't my kind of colour but it has its own followings.still, despite its appearance, it is a work of art...
