anyone had a chance to check this out yet? i just picked it up the other day waiting for it to get here. alot of the ff-squad, jhpusa and honda-tech kids in this video.

Litmatch Productions have released this great and well edited documentary video which showcase a handful of well known internet & non-internet based Honda enthusiasts and their love for import car life. A few featured kats are Chris1.6, JDM wong, Tony Jackson, Katman, Lee Randle, Chad, TMR Rodney, NWP - Edick & Andy freeman, Kyle Johnson aka KJ and his Seattle clic. 110% independent!

I was actually one of the first few to receive this item when it was first released.

However, regardless of all the hype, I was honestly very disappointed. The video, which was basically a documentary, was really nothing I personally hadn't said nor heard before unfortunately. The time and efforts put forth to create such a DVD for fellow enthusiasts doesn't go unwarranted, as the film was very well put together and executed better than most professional automotive DVDs. The automotive video sequences, although lacking, were shot with absolute beauty and were reminiscent of skateboarding filmography.

Overall the DVD is most definitely worth purchasing, especially for the pricing of a well shot independent film. However, I myself could have done without 75% of the talking and would have personally enjoyed seeing more of the beautifully shot automotive cinematics instead.

i think it is a decent Documentary setting film...like previously stated...its all stuff we have all been through...but on another note...i got the feeling i could relate to alot of what was said and the feeling you get from doing something you love...

i can personally say im a big enthusiast and Import tuning has a big impact on my life, and the decisions i make..

all in all...i love it and watch it on a weekly basis...becuase like i said....i can relate to all of the subjects they touch on....and it makes me feel like im not the only honda geek around....lol

i got the dvd today and i already watched it 3 times. this is an EXCELLENT MOVIE! jon duppong's junkyard hatch is like my fucking god.

everything stated in that movie i could honestly say i have said/felt/thought. this was WELL worth the 20 bucks. anyone serious about the import/jdm scene should get this video! its about 51 minutes long.

when they start talking about the thefts and stuff on the west coast it just makes me so happy i live where i live.
