International AutoMobile Tuning Show Budapest 2018
(It used to be Auto & Motor (as in motorbike) Tuning Show hence the need for Mobile, they didn't want to change the abbreviation)
I know there are some among you who like to indulge in the automotive arts, so without further ado, here's a small appetizer of what was on display. Click the link for the rest!
I'm kinda lousy with a camera, and too lazy to edit or sort through the pics properly, so enjoy as much as possible lol

Edit: Updated with 86 more pics, if you're more into NFS:UG/F&F style tuner cars, start from the bottom!
PS: you do Not have to have an account to view the pics, just click on the small "continue viewing" text at the bottom of the popup if it comes up

So after 12 years of being toocheap to shill out the roughly 30 bucks for admission, I decided it was time for us to visit a car show again. I took my cheapo DSLR with it's cheap old zoom lens, and took some pics (450 to be exact) of all the "wonders" that were on display. I brought the wife along to teach her the finer points of car culture, like what Hot Rods are, and how a slammed VW Golf can move while seemingly sitting with it's wheels off the ground. It was a fun Friday afternoon, especially that there were no crowds yet. Also, most of the "hostesses" weren't there yet, so the cars weren't obscured by fake leather wrapped (mostly fake) boobs and buttocks.
The lighting was pretty damn bad, as everyone was expected to pay for their own light rig, but literally no one could afford it apart from aftermarket shops, so most shots turned out rather dark and I had to overexpose em later, thus grainy as fack. Sorry 'bout that. The focus motor in my lens is on it's way out as well, which I only noticed once I got home and heard it squeal like a pig that had a Reclaimer dropped on it, so lots of blurry shots...
My mechanic friend was there with his brand/team called Royal Motorsport ( kinda silly name as they repair and build old bimmers, but that's eastern Europe for you in a nutshell..), you can see their cars in the first couple of pics. Also, skip the many taillight shots, those were only done while I figured out the lens and settings to use.
