I spent about 4 hours today at the New York international Auto Show. I was very impressed with some of the concept cars as well as some of the new models. The BMW CS was my favorite concept. The door handles are shaved and are placed on top of the window trim making them almost completely invisible. The Dodge Challenger looked awesome !!! Here is a link to a slide show of todays experience:

Enjoy !!!

I'll be going tomorrow to the show. Can't wait to see the Porsche GT2 up close.

I'll be the one with a Porsche leather jacket and a Farnbacher Loles/ Porsche black shirt walking around the Porsche display and a few others.

Did you guys see the black on the Maybach? Damn that's one nice black finish!

Those that are going, enjoy the cars!!

I was like a kid in a candy store. I went with a few friends who are car nuts, but not professional detailers. They spent some time inside some of the floor models that have been out a while, while I just focused on the stuff I haven't seen yet. Spent 4 hours drooling !!!

Nice show. enjoy !!!

You know I'll have a good time. Problem is...Am I going to make a deal on something?

While the wife shops in the stores in midtown... Gee you think I should?

I was disapointed in the show this year. Not many great exotic exhibits. Ferrari only had one car! Lamo had a few, but unreachable.

Porsche only had the GT2 on the turntable. They had a nice white C4S with Aerokit, white, painted back seats, painted center console, painted door trim etc etc. A few Caymens, and special edition Boxter.

Second level was full of the vendors that hack everything from scale car models to "Super Chamois" and waxes/sealants.

However, the slide show is great...Save you money and watch the slide show!

Deanski,

I could see your point about unreachable. The Bentley's, Rolls, and Lambos were set back like priceless diamonds, and the Saleen F 150 was placed back about 25 feet and also unreachable. It was kind of like looking at a picture.

Luckily a customer of mine is picking up the Saleen truck, and I will be able to see & drive it soon.

Saleen Truck? NICE!!! Lucky SOB if you drive it.
