Random: Red or blue pill?

Now this picture of two Advan A3A rims made me think of the Matrix:
Advan A3A rims: blue or red?
Advan A3A rims: blue or red?

Morpheus: This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill – the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill – you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes.
I’d say I take the red Advan then! :P

Random: Honda Think Simple campaign

Earlier this week I saw a bunch of vintage Honda ads posted on EK Hatch’s blog and one of them made me think:
Honda Think Simple campaign
Honda Think Simple campaign

Think simple! It sound incredible so simple, yet so right about the spirit of Honda.

At the same time I thought of the Apple Think Different campaign:

Apple Think Different campaign

Apart from the fact that it uses the type face (clear sign of plagiarism by Apple!) it is also the direct opposite of the Honda spirit…

It almost smells like a parody made on Apple after they came up with the slogan, but I found the following pages to back up the Honda campaign:

Another similar Accord ad

Random: beautifully rebuilt Toyota Mark II RX12

While JNC blog is still offline I started to search for the answer why the blog is offline on their forum. While doing so I stumbled upon RSilva’s beautifully restored Mark II:
Beautifully rebuilt Toyota Mark II RX12
Beautifully rebuilt Toyota Mark II RX12

The photography is astonishing: the retro look really fits both the model and the car! The photographer is probably either him or a family member since they share partly the same name. You can find more pictures of this beautiful Mark II either in the topic on JNC forum or on Filipe da Silva’s portfolio .
