Autobacs is here in the US!!!
I heard last year that Autobacs was coming. Today as i was driving in Garden Grove, i saw a new store under construction and i was like, "oh **** its here." The place is big...not quite the size of a Best Buy but certainly dwarfs any established performance shops in terms of size. Brand new building and install bays. For those of you who don't know...Autobacs is the largest chain store in Japan for the aftermarket and premier sponsor of the All Japan Grand Touring Championship.

Took an interior shot from the outside glass doors. Looks like 2 stories but the 2nd floor may be for offices.

WOW they finally decided to come.
They were interesting in coming over in the late 80's but nothing panned out.
I remember that b/c they were looking for some investment and some private label wheels.
It cool though.. I need to move to OC to be closer to this stuff.

no idea...no posted sign of opening either...just coming soon. Judging by the interior, i would hazard a guess of late summer or fall.
