Malaysia International Automotive Parts & Accessories Expo
Sep 4th, 2008 by Neo
It has been a busy week, but do not worry that I will neglect this blog. I enjoy writing here and I am sure you enjoy reading some of my posts too. No matter how busy, I will still update here. Let’s check out where did I go last week… yes, no other place was better than the Malaysia International Automotive Parts & Accessories Expo or in short Auto ASEAN 2008.
The expo was held in Putra Stadium, Bukit Jalil and on the last day before it was concluded I managed to sneak in with a RM5 entrance ticket.

So, obviously there were tonnes of cars on display and on sale. I know the above Honda Racing car photo doesn’t look very promising… I think I am slightly better at shooting models - pretty girls, I mean… and sucks at shooting anything else.
No place to bounce my flash from and the result of direct flash is pretty obvious. The front of the car is overly exposed, although I tilted the speedlite some 35 degree upwards.

Anyway, although it was the last day of a four days expo, there wasn’t a lot of people… perhaps most of the crowd was somewhere in the town at the Merdeka parade or something like that. Or maybe it was because of the RM5 entrance fee which deterred people from coming.
It’s a good thing there wasn’t too many people. We could have all the time in the world to snap as many pictures we want without being pushed away.

Oh yes, Hypertune was there too! If you are uninformed, Hypertune is Malaysia’s top selling car magazine, especially popular for there car tuning tips and tricks.
Now, don’t look at the cars only, what about Hypertune babes!? Here you are…

OK, this is just a sneak peek of what you can expect to see next… I just can’t refrain from posting this photo up although what I really want to show you today are car pictures only. Haha…

There were many cars, cars and cars and more cars to see and touch here… in various shapes, colors and sizes.
I admit I do not know much about cars except how to drive one, but this particular car really caught my attention, and many others visitors. In fact its ICE (in car entertainment system) decibels could be heard miles away!

The whole trunk or boot was packed with huge loud speakers, amplifiers, and all sorts of accessories which I do not know the name of. On top of that it was equipped with not less than three monitors… yes, you heard me right, three monitors but they were facing weird directions… Let me show you one below.

Why the heck was the monitor facing to the front of the car? Haha… weird orientation but it was a pleasure checking it out. Anyway, if you thought that’s the end of it, then you are wrong. There is another small monitor which was probably not meant for passenger’s viewing.

See, a small monitor in the trunk of the car.
Guess where was the third monitor located. OK, I give you not only a clue, but a video below. Do take a look and feel your heart racing with the nice music, and before your heart beat stops, tell me where was it located.
The auto babes are all ready to meet you! Stay tuned!

To own and to keep a car here in HK is just something beyond my ability - we have to get by with public transportation, or hire 7-seaters when the kids go out for a frolick.
All those cars look slick - the one with the monitors look interesting. Notice they’re using the latest Bravia’s too. Not over-expensive but look super sweet.
Btw, what car is that behind the two pretty models?
yah dun neglect yr blog neo… u always give us things that we guys love to c…. gals and cars! haha…
Sports cars and women, that pretty much sums up what’s in a guy’s mind huh.
Furkids in Hong Kong,
I think public transportation is so much better planned in Hong Kong. You can get to a lot of places easily with them, but that’s not the case in Malaysia. Anyway, we are improving…
If my memory serves me right, the car behind the two pretty models is that car in the 2nd picture above. Any idea what car is that?
