Since the beginning, Blox has always been known for hosting some of the biggest events in Norcal. Starting with their yearly Blox Open House events back in 2011 every event has grown in not only scale but in quality! This year marked the next generation of Blox with their Evolution event, which they wanted to be different and make a show scene bigger and better. Some even rumored that they were Wekfest hunting. With the help of District 10, they hosted a great event. I’m hoping next year they will keep the same location in San Fransisco and make it a go to spot for massive carshows in the future. Plus pier 70 is only 10mins away from my house, which made it easy to get there and setup for some nice roll in shots which lead to this 2 part coverage.

As I entered the venue I was greeted by that great looking Rocket Bunny GTR (pictured above). There were also some great looking cars around Godzilla to compliment it. Like this track stance Mini on OZs.
Like this great looking R8 sitting on RSV Forged wheels. Right off the bat, I noticed the pictures were turning out great. I was really worried that being that the show was inside of an abandoned warehouse, the lighting would be terrible. However this was not the case, lighting was great throughout the venue, with the large bay doors open to let in plenty of light, and the high ceilings the warehouse had plenty of windows lining the walls.
Inspire came out with 50+ cars, granting them theyre open area inside the venue
Crew member Nj’s #Jerified Sileighty
Ash’s Miata looking fresh with the new Goldstar wing
One day, I’ll build an impressive IS like this one
Jessie’s widebody Z getting a lot of attention parked right at the entrance
Mark’s Is looking great on his new Work Kiwamis. I’m lovin’ dat camber
Cant go wrong with a pair LS Rx7s
Got to catch a couple shots of this custom built Ruckus for Blox Evolution, while they were filming a video
Endless Projects also rolled deep, taking over the whole middle section of the warehouse!
It wasn’t just all about slammed cars however, there was also this muddin’ FJ
Before heading back outside, I spotted one of my OG sticker from 2012! It was awesome seeing that the sticker still lives on, its about 1 of 1 still left in existence. Can you guess the car its on?
Its always awesome when parents make these slammed carts for their kids
Outside was like a whole ‘nother show! Being that the show had over 500+ cars it was a lot of cars to cover and a lot of different unique builds! Here’s a shot of my hoe.
Jose’s FA5 gets better and better looking every show he comes out to.
Parked next to him was this great looking 9th gen coupe
Over at our sponsor’s booth, MemoryFAB had a great line up!
Crew member Jimmy’s sick 9th gen
Mtechnica turbos. Make sure you hit up MemoryFab if you’re looking to get your next set of wheels, or even if you need you current multi-piece wheels rebuilt. They’ll take great care of you.
PureVIP came all the way out from Sac with some great builds!
What caught my eye from a far, was Brad’s fresh s14!
Stay tuned to Carsxhype.com for the full feature on this car, later this year
Over at the Sonoma booth was some of the crew from Riot Squad. Lex’s Rx8
And Jon’s Vertex widebody SC. If you haven’t already, go check out their drift vids!
Fresh hardbody Nissan. Wish more people built these, I’ve contemplated multiple times on getting my dad’s Nissan and flushing it out
The only true Rotary at the show
Some of the Upscale guys showin’ off
Vs-Kfs are one of my all time favorite wheels!
This Hyundai drove all the way from Arizona to show off at Blox Evo, talk about dedication.
This Miata happened to catch my attention, with its OEM+ true roadster look.
With its classy interior and Fatlace wheels, there was just something about it that stood out
Got to finally meet one of the other SC members up here in the Bay Area
Like I said earlier, the show wasn’t all about slammed cars. The show had a bit of everything! Including this majorly lifted truck! I’m sure you could easily fit some slammed Miatas under there hah.
This ratrod was dope too. Everyone loves a unique build, and just about every ratrod has their own style! This one didnt even have a floor!
Royal Origin brought out one of their fresh cars
Wonder what that’s like on the freeway
Back inside, Scion had their own spot in the warehouse, where they showcased some of their latest models and some of their custom rides. Glad to see a company like Scion embraces the import scene unlike other car companies nowadays.
And of course Speed Elements bagged Rocket Bunny FRS
Sick brand new IS rocking Mtechnicas
The mystery car from earlier, if you didnt already guess it, was none other than Dion’s Minty Audi
Clean Beatle on Porsche wheels
Amir’s car is coming along very nicely
You may not recognize this car next show, its currently going through some changes. See if you can spot it! And with that this concludes coverage of Blox Evolution! Hope everyone that attended had a great time, and if you made it this far in the coverage you have just looked through about 180 photos. Congrats! But as always if youre dying for more photos there are always more on Flickr.
