Tokyo Auto Salon 2009 starts Friday Jan 9th and goes until Sunday Jan 11th at the Makuhari Messe which is a convention centre in Japan located in the western region of Chiba Prefecture which is very close to Tokyo, Japan.
The coolest part about the Tokyo Auto Salon 2009 is that I will be in attendance! YEAAAAAA That’s exactly what I am saying! Pretty cool, I completely agree! The last 2 car shows I attended were: 2008 Essen Motor Show in Germany and the 2008 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.

Make sure you check back here and MadWhips for all my photo coverage including the sexy Tokyo Auto Salon 2009 Girls!

Having seen the original Branew Nissan GT-R at the 2008 Sema Show in Las Vegas this past November, it surely didn’t take Branew long to whip up another sexy front clip available in FRP or Carbon Fiber called The Front Bumper Dynamic Version. I will make sure I take a tonne of photos of this new clip because I think it makes a very nice modification to the already sexy Nissan GT-R front end!

RDP Motorsport in Ohio have added their own flavor of modifications to the Dodge Challenger SRT-8 and came up with a Twin Supercharged 440 Stroker which they introduced at the Performance Racing Industry (PRI) Show in Florida. They have added a plethora of modifications, however the majority of it’s 1000hp is thanks to a one of a kind Twin Bullet / RDP Harrop Supercharger system and a nitrous boosting system from Nitrous Express.

Apparently while 50 Cent was recently in England to shoot a film or a video or who knows what, him or his crew locked the keys to someones Rolls Royce Phantom in the car and required the art of the coathanger to open the doors. The plates are from Dubai, which is apparently not uncommon for exotics in London to Dubai plates, however I doubt he owns this car let alone had anything to do with these photos.

Yesterday we saw a Matte White Ferrari 599 GTB which followed the Matte White Brabus Tesla Roadster which debut at the 2008 Essen Motor Show. These 3 cars are definitely setting the stage for the wrath of Matte White cars we will soon be seeing in 2009.

Lamborghini Murcielago Streetversion by Reiter Engineering. This is the same company that introduced you to their unique engineered central mounted exhaust system on their beautiful Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT and their recent Lamborghini Gallardo GT3 Strada. This Murcielago Streetversion reminds me of the Lamborghini Diablo from the side profile shot!

Reiter Engineering is known for their rediculously awesome Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT which I saw at the 2008 Essen Motor Show. They have now created a Lamborghini Gallardo GT3 Strada and squeezed out another 10hp out of the already monstrous and beautiful 5L V10 by engineering their new central mounted high-flow exhaust (as implemented on their Murcielago R-GT).

Japanese tuner Branew just released some teaser pictures of its upcoming Branew Nissan 370Z which will debut at the Tokyo Auto Salon (SEE YOU THERE!)
Photos reveal some sexy new aerodynamic body parts (front spoiler, side step, rear wing and diffuser), and the 370Z is also slammed with 22 inch chrome Branew alloy wheels. All body parts except the rear wing will be available in fiberglass or carbon fiber. I must say I am a fan of these body modifications!
