Hybridz, Friends & Guests:

16th Anniversary Baby and starting the year with a bang already (as promised)!

Here are some sneak previews of what is to come and what has arrived. Performance and results of all our claims, actions and words!

1. Today, January 07, 2011 is our 16th anniversary. Happy Anniversary!!! Founded on January 7, 1995 in Oxnard, Ca, we have become a power house in the import tuning world as well as earned our legendary reputation of being one of the best overall import teams, building standard setting cars, discovering the most beautiful hunnyz, and representing top notch sponsors. In 2011, we plan to continue building on our great legacy.

2. Sony Mobile Electronics Team 'Turns It Up' at CES 2011 (January 06-09) with James Lin's 2011 Scion tC. Sony announced to the press, "Custom Cars with Attitude. Additionally, Sony will be displaying two fully loaded custom-built vehicles, each with its own distinct style. Reinforcing the great relationship that Sony and Ford share from the OEM side of the business, there will be a brand new custom 2011 Ford Mustang on display. Built and designed by celebrity car customizer Funkmaster Flex for hip hop icon Snoop Dog, the 2011 Mustang features a full Sony A/V system. Also on display will be a fully customized 2011 Scion Tc featuring Sony audio. Designed by James Lin, a leading builder in the aftermarket industry, the car was one of the most popular attractions at the 2010 SEMA show. The Sony Mobile Electronics booth will be located in the North Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center, CES booth number 815."
