Jordan XI low White/Black-True Red

It was pretty lucky to find this pair of shoes

Just released in June 8^th 2013.

Someone said this is the "Reverse" version of "Concord" 

(which means white part is black; black part is white).

Jordan XI (11) is one of the most popular Air Jordan shoes.

Different colors of Jordan shoes are usually released during Christmas time.

AJ 11 must be so popular

that Nike decides to release different AJ 11 low version during summer time.

So here are some photos:

Rear

As you can see, the AJ 11low version just looks like the same as AJ 11. Except:

1. Low

2. Jordan logo shown in the back side

3. Pattern of the bottom carbon fiber looks different.

NBA playoff

NBA playoff.

Spurs vs. Heat
 Series Tied (2-2) !

Who will be the winner?

By the way, there is an official micro-movie at www.nba.com
 It is very interesting to watch!

NBA playoff makes me think "Air Jordan shoes".. Especially AJ XI

I am also a basketball fan.
Either Heat or Spurs will get the NBA title.

I am not going to talk the current games.
But if you are a basketball fan or even you are not a big fan,
you must know Michael Jordan, one of the greatest players in NBA history.

He played NBA for a while, then retired.
He started played baseball for a short period.
Then, Jordan announced "I'm back" in 1995.

What he wore is called AIR JORDAN.
People call "AJ".
AJI, AJII, to AJXX3, then AJ 2009 to 2012, then AJ XX8.

Although a lot of AJ series, my favorite is AJ XI.
The shoes Jordan wore in 1995-1996 season.
Jordan wore AJ XI "concord" during regular season, and "Bred" for playoff.
What it looks like? Here is the images of Bred.

Front

I really like the Logo. I am not sure if this logo was inspired by Mercedes Benz.
LOL! Just kidding.

Rear

Bottom

I read a review that the bottom of AJ XI was made by carbon fiber.
I am curious why shoes needs a very strong but light material.

OK.

Two things:
1. thanks my buddy to let me take images.
2. keep watching NBA playoff!

Thanks for reading.

Lexus LFA 1:!8 autoart

Lexus LF-A

The most expensive Lexus car so far.
LF-A is also the first super car produced by Lexus. Limited for 500.
Although MT magazine said this car was under development, many people still like this car.
Lexus also noticed this issue. Later on, Lexus develop the Nurburging version for this car. And of course, this package costs extra $$.

This is not a car review, so let's check this model car 1:18 from Autoart.

Lexus claimed the exterior design of the LF-A is totally different than other super cars.
What do you think?

Front

The engine of the super car always generate a lot of heat, therefore, the cooling system is very important to the car. The LF-A also has its own cooling system. The cooling ducts are surrounded by the car from front pumper, side to the rear. As you can see, there are mesh structures under the tail light. That's right. It is for cooling purpose.

 Rear

The other cool designs of the LF-A are rear spoiler and exhaust. The spoiler will be raised when reaching certain speed.

Spoiler

The triangle-like exhaust is also very impressive!

The Autoart is a high-end model car company. They really do a good job on interior as well. If you are a model-car collector, you will notice that most of model cars does not have door windows. But this one has it.
The steering wheel also has two colors just like real car. Even the pedals were painted with aluminum alloy color. 

Interior

 I also want to emphasize one part of this model car.

Engine Hood

The engine hood. The model car maker even pays attention to the hood vents as well as the hood stand.

Last thing, I would like to thank a lady who sold this LF-A model car to me on ebay. She is the best ebay seller I know so far. She provided me the best customer service to me ever! Long story short, after I bought this car, I put it in a case and didn't notice this model has a defect on wheel alignment. Therefore, I contacted her after "almost 6 months" and asked her if she could replace one for me. I didn't expect anything from her. But "Yes", she replaced for me even sold to me after 6 months. So I would like to thank her again in my blogger.

Thank for reading!


 
 

Nissan GT-R 1:18

OK! I am going to introduce "GT-R".
One of most amazing sport cars. 
Yes, it is a Japanese car, but it is faster than several well-known Italian super cars.
For sure, it is much cheaper than those super cars.

GT-R was actually from Nissan Skyline GT-R.
But Nissan wants GT-R to have its own model.

GTR R35

If you saw the movie 2 Fast 2 Furious, there was a racing game at beginning:
Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34)
Honda 2000

Mazda RX-7
Toyota Supra
The GT-R in the movie is R34.
I am going to introduce R35. 1:18 scale model car.

Front

Rear

One of the GTR's icon is its taillight. Four red circles.
Usually I don't like rear truck spoiler, but this one looks great to me.

Engine

The engine size is 3.8 Liter with twin turbo, but it can reach 545 hp (north american), and 550 hp (Europe).
It only takes less than 3 sec. from 0-60 MPH.
If you check Ring Time (List of Nurburgring lap time), GT-R is top 15.
It is also the second fast Japanese sport car. (behind LFA Nurburgring version)

This model car also did a good job in interior.

Interior

I like its sport pedals!

I heard a news about the R35. I am not sure if it is true or not.
Nissan voids the warranty on transmission if you quote "race".

Enjoy reading!
