EuroSunday Photo-Gathering
Speedhawaii checks out EuroSunday’s first gathering in Honolulu! Choke pics after the jump!!
So the boys over at EuroSunday.net decided to create a Honolulu chapter for the popular automotive gathering, and Speedhawaii was there to cover the first meet. The original plan was to hold it at Kakaako Waterfront Park, however it seems another organization beat us to the park. So a change of plans was in order, and we all moved over to Fishermen’s Warf. Before long, European’s of all shapes and sizes began rolling in.
While a majority of the cars that showed up were modern, the two old school machines who showed up stole the show. There was a pristine looking Austin Heely, and an equally beautiful BMW 2002 Tii.
All in all, there was a really good turn out of over 20 cars, much more then expected. The cars that came included a bunch of VW GTIs (including an R32!), a few BMWs (including a German market E36 M3!), a perfect looking MkI Range Rover, and even a Porsche 911! A bright yellow Ducati also came to represent the two-wheelers. However the car that stole the show for me personally was a beastly Audi RS6. Can you say 4.2L V8 Biturbo??
Although the event is called EuroSunday, now days ALL makes and models are welcomed. As such a couple of Japanese car’s showed up, however the biggest non-Euro was clearly a monster Corvette, tuned by Lingenfelter!
All in all, a great day! The weather was perfect, the cars were awesome, and the company was fun! Hopefully future EuroSunday events will have even bigger turn-outs. I know I’ll continue to show up when I can, even in my Japanese made Subaru. Who knows, I personally might have a Euro of my own in the future. ^_^
Big thanks to Joe from EuroSunday.net for organizing this get together. And if you’re interested in attending a future event, Joe says he plans on holding one every 4th Sunday of the month (starting on March 28th) and a location to be determined. Head on over to the Hawaii chapter for more info on future events (you gotta register for free first)!
*PS: I know the event is called EuroSunday, but due to Valentine’s day being on a Sunday, this first event was rescheduled for a Saturday. Just to clear up any confusion some of you may have had.
