Hong Kong EliseTalk Meet - LotusTalk

Patricko · 10-14-2004, 04:49 AM

There is not a Hong Kong region so I thought I would put this here.

I just met up with Tony (tonyyoshi) here in Hong Kong and he was kind enough to take me for a ride in his highly modified 111S. He has a full Titanium manifold and exhaust and it sounds fantastic. It also looks cool as the pipes are a nice blue and the back of the car is open (above the diffuser) so you can see it.

He has the ReVerie carbon seats and they are very comfortable.

It was something else bombing it down these crazy streets in Hong Kong in an Elise

Sorry for the picture quality but it was dark; that is Tony in his Elise.

Thanks again Tony

Patrick

Here is a picture of Tony's car and you can see his exhaust in this one.

BTW his car is Gunmetal Grey

Here's the first image brightened up a bit....check out the radiator air outlet....our cars have the power brake booster so this was raised up to cover it. Still...is this the no-power brake appearance? It looks great!

Fantastic! Glad you both could meet up and have a good time!

It's pretty neat to see that you can travel around the world and meet up with fellow elise junkies.

It is fun to meet others that share our affliction. I think that most Elise owners are a very nice lot.

Yes am living the life and I feel very lucky

I think meeting Tony is going to cost me a lot of money as now I am think I may need to do a few mods also.

I totally forgot about that

The sound of Tony's car was just amazing and when he was pulling away after he dropped me off it sounded like a race car

Have you heard of Esta International? They are located in Hong Kong. I just ordered their body kit and i'm having some complications with them so just wondering if you might know their reputation or if your friend might.

Patricko · 09-14-2006, 05:33 PM

I think I am going to Hong Kong in about 6 hours, no ticket yet but...
