Wékfest Florida 2016: West Palm Beach



Intro:

Since December 2014, Wékfest has been a staple of Boxed Lifestyle's show season and 2016 was no different. We were originally scheduled to bring 10 builds to the event, which quickly became 7 as Alex's Nissan Cube and Emilio's xB did not leave their respective body shops in time and Gilbert's Honda Crosstour was unable to make the trip due to a last minute schedule conflict.

New to this years Wékfest lineup was Zach's Subaru Impreza which is a great example of what we call a "HaGon". A HaGon by our definition is a crossbreed between a wagon and a hatchback. If you have a rear door car with a small third window on either side, you have a HaGon.
Wékfest is just one of those special events. Even our third time around, it is still refreshing to take in the atmosphere Junior and the Wékfest staff strive to provide. Wékfest draws some of the best builds in the region without all the drama. Which is so rare to find these days in this new "car scene" era where the cars that are in the show some how take a back seat to a C-List rapper or a dance off.

Features:

My goal moving forward with this blog is to bring attention to other Bovagon and Microhatch builds at events we attend. I will be developing this section of my posts further and expanding the amount of builds. Here is a pair of builds that caught my eye from Wékfest.


Chevy Spark

Mazda 3 Wagon

Up Next:

Our next post should be toward the end of January for Gulf Coast Motor Fest. After that will be BoVaGon on February 5, 2017 which we are still accepting VIP applications and pre-registrations for.

Shout out to Chris Mendez of USA Stance for providing the visuals.
