Btw, does anyone need to kill some time on Sat evening? I am going to be in GG area to sell my fender this Sat and it would be awsome if I met some fellow korean G drivers here. Possibly dinner, but no drinking
I would. But I have a wedding to attend on Sat.

^ There are two common things among young korean kids in Korea; they are going to college, and wanna learn English. Hagwons are good business there.

Actually the businesses are decreasing..
1. they always been known to be really expensive
2. the korean teachers are still not great enough in english to be teachig it
3. the Philipines is now providing hagwans for way cheaper, and since Filipinos are taught in school in English and not our native language, the Philipines seems to be the perfect place for koreans to learn english.

You should see the small communities of koreans in the philipines now..
It's also funny how the koreans treat filipinos in korea... (like mexicans and blacks are treated here) But we welcome them with open arms in korea.. I hope this changes the way the koreans perceive the filipinos.

^ That's one thing I don't understand period. Neither counties went on war each other; why we treat like **** to each other? You see I live in San Diego. There are HUGE population of filipinas who are married to Navy guys. A lot of them work at NEX/commisory. Whenever I do shop there, they are almost always not friendly and/or gimme dirty looks.

Korean BBQ sounds really good right about now!



Anyone else interested? I'm definitely down for a meet/dinner.

Attention Fellow Korean G Drivers in SoCal (Orange County):

I have decided that we should actually start on the Korean G driver meet list, otherwise we'll never make this happen. I'm targeting maybe last weekend of March or first week of April for this meet to happen.

If anyone is interested and have an idea of what we should do (dinner followed by a cuise to a bar on PCH is my idea), please state your thoughts and suggestions. I'll start the list with my s/n and first name follow by AIM s/n.

Driver S/N - First Name - AIM S/N
1. B L U E S L A T E - Alan - NewCastleG35
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.

Let's do this people.

Quick question for my fellow koreans. I got Volks GT-S Gunmetal with the most aggressive offset (to get the biggest lip). Well i'm kinda bored of my rims and have a chance to get the Works VS-XX (Black Faced) Should i get them? Im not sure how well it will look on a Brilliant Silver Coupe. Any thoughts?

hahahahah I was thinking about selling my T1S (1 month old) and order the Vs-XX in Work Balck Chrome finish... lol

I was gonna get it because not a lot of people with sedan own them.... on the other hand, you can see many coupe owners have them here on Driver. It's up to you, but if you wanna be differentiated, you might want to go something like DPE. Still, you're right, they're gonna look hot on your BS coupe.

EDIT: Something like this...

https://g35driver.com/forums/archived-sales/165436-dpe-r20-titanium-asphault-hot-20x8-5-20x10-w-toyo-proxies-t1s.html

but maybe different color since your coupe is BS.
