The NSX/Taiwan Connection

[Mike-san]

Leave it to a white guy to start a thread like this, but I'm sincerely curious....A large number of NSX owners that I know are from there, I'm just calling out all the others I might not know personally....(Vance gave me permission to do this :biggrin: )

Hey !!! You're from Brea ? I was born in Fullerton, but I grew up in Brea !!! Anyway, to answer your question, yes, of course it counts, but in order to prove your heritage, please bring some good tasting mi-fan to an upcoming SCA meet:biggrin: ( I can't make this Thursday however).

Wah-Lay, "mi-fan" is soo overrated. Bring some stinky-tofu "Chou To Fu" or "Oh Ah Mi Suan" and we'll talk.

 

[slamstrom]

No Taiwan connection here, but you guys are making me hungary.:tongue: :biggrin: :wink:

 

[Ben]

Taiwanese descent, and worked in Taipei/Hsinchu from 2002-2004. Still have a studio apartment in Taipei, and go back for business 3-4 times a year. Had a restaurant/bar in Taipei from 2004-2006, but was too hard to manage with myself and one of the other partners away from Taiwan most of the time.

[Taiwanese]

[Mike-san]

Bump......Bump.....Bump

 

[whatisreal7]

Born in Taiwan, came to the US when I was 8. Go back to Asia 4-6 times a year for business (includes China...don't flame me). Proud to be Taiwanese except when senators/law-makers bum-rush committee chairs in the chambers, and punch/spit/throw shoes at each other (all on TV, i might add). When my non-asian friends ask me what's up with that, I just say they're Korean =) jk.
