  • Cars have always been part of my life and this is why I love Bangkok car meets, this is Tofuya Underground 2023. Thailand has a rich car culture, and Bangkok's is of course off the hook. Join me as I give you a curated tour of the Tofuya Underground 2023 car meet. As always, this car meet is packed with JDM cars of all types. This being Thailand, there are plenty of non JDM cars that are powered by Japanese motors, and all are welcome at this show. Here we see everything from Mazda FD RX7 to Honda NSX, Toyota AE86 Trueno, Bosozoku cars and bikes, and much more. The last thing I expected to see in Bangkok was a right-hand drive DeLorean. Let's walk around and see what everyone brought this year.

But I don't know what category to put you in. You definitely know anything that drives. I love that. I love going to the car shows with you. It's so much fun. Have a great day.

    WOW man... That is a shock, the white sedan is a Aussie Holden VL Commodore, looks like kymhaniford beat me to it, that engine though is not RB30DET that's an LS with a big manifold plumbed into a turbo, very shocked to see that over there haha... also Chad's E30 has the same paint it just had the clear plastic coating removed which was dull... amazing how its protected the paint... so good

      Let me be real with you. The cat scene here is cool, BUT it was much more diverse in the US. Don’t get me wrong, it’s bad ass here. I just prefer a bit more variety. I miss all the redneck trucks in Texas and just general variety.
      NOW… let’s talk about quality of life. CANNOT COMPARE TO THE US. So much better here. Almost no crime. No one complaining that you misgendered their confused ass. People here are very kind and generally let everyone do what they want to do. ZERO entitlement and welfare state philosophy here. The woke politics that have ruined so many western countries, simply so not exist here.

    Quick question regarding the GT-R. That is replica built from a fire damaged Alfa chassis or did I misunderstood what you said? I would like to hear more on how that was done? Is the build documented online somewhere? Thanks!

    • @LifewithSerg
      @LifewithSerg  6 месяцев назад +1

      Alfa chassis? No, this is a genuine R 35 GTR. It caught fire on a tie highway about a year and a half ago due to an oil leak. As you can see, was extensively burned. But as you can see from this video, he has rebuilt the car. You can look on his RUclips channel “Heng’s garage” for the story and the build process.

      You can’t (legally) import used cars into Thailand that’s why they are so expensive here.

They’ll be one big post September the end of December that has all the car events for this month.
