All the way from Tampa, FL, we bring you a double-feature! Alex Laverde is the proud owner of this 2001 Acura Integra and 2004 Honda Ruckus.
Alex is the original owner of the Integra and has operated on this beauty several times. Installing 3 different nitrous kits, 2 turbo manifolds, and a handful of intakes and exhausts, his work has been beautifully executed. Alex took his inspiration for the Integra and invested in building the Ruckus identically over a course of 4 months. His favorite sites for parts are Honda-Tech.com Market Place and Totalruckus.com Grand Bazaar.
From the beginning, Alex faced obstacles - even while purchasing his Integra. When arriving to the dealership, it seemed like he had arrived at the only dealership where a group of salesmen weren't waiting for him. Finally, a sales representative saw the look on Alex's face when he was viewing the Integra and sealed the deal.
Alex plans to freshen up the interior of his Integra and install a brake kit, bigger cams, and shoot for 500hp.
Alex's dream car is a 1963 Chevy Impala with an Ls1 motor. He was always around low riders growing up, but never had the opportunity to own and build his own. Alex hopes that his dreams will become reality and a 1963 Impala will be his next build.

The time finally came for Hot Import Nights to roll around to the amazing city of Miami! On September 29, 2012, the StanceMiami team attended HIN to bring our supporters the best coverage of the night. Thousands of people attended this event and it definitely did not disappoint. Before entering through the doors of the Miami Convention Center, you could feel the suspense of what was to come. Intense, upbeat music and shiny, fresh wheels proved you were in the right place. With all the cars in the showroom looking their best, the bar was set high for all the competition titles. With HIN's venue going to 15 states all over the US, this show had Miami's presence written all over it. Slammed, Tucked, or Flushed, Miami's cars are simply show-stopping. All the car enthusiasts I had the opportunity to speak with all agreed that they enjoyed the simple fact that there was so much variety at this event. From old school Datsun's to the amazing GT-R Godzilla, HIN turned out to be an awesome experience. We hope you all enjoy.

YO That's Clean B
Photography: Kevis Mulchan, Michel Mulchan
We bring you this super clean 1987 B12 Nissan Sentra owned by Nax Whitmore. Nax is also the proud owner of this sick VIP Lexus previously featured here on Stance Miami. It was so great to photograph this car, especially looking the way it does because it reminded us here at Stance Miami of our passion for these cars growing up in the islands. I know Nax also feels the same way as he shares the commonality of being from the caribbean (Jamaica.)
Nax honestly didn't have a goal with this car except to keep it as simple and as clean as possible. We think he succeeded beyond measure!
We asked Nax what his plans are for the future with this B12 and he said, "No future plans as of now, unless my crazy mind get bored, then I might do qr2.5 spec-v with wire tuck, might, so don't expect it."
Nax would like to make some shout outs and appreciation to Emerald Performance, Slammered Inc, and also his crew FortuneMinds.
MODS:
- 3pc step lip Futura Oz 16x8, 16x9
- Greddy sps exhaust
