Los Angeles Auto Show

Well I went last night (Thursday) for the Pre-opening of the show. It was nice, good crappy food (Meat stick substance), and other nice tasting but bad for you food stuffs. As usual the show left me wondering if I would go if it were not free, and I didn’t get free food? No, I would not, it is pretty much a been there done that kinda’ thing. Seems the same every year.

Highligths might include…

Some day Chevy will release the New Camaro, Ford to have a sneek preview of the Mustang, etc. The Same looking cars, same sort of hype on the same subjects. Always cars missing from the manufactures, where was the Audi S8? WTF, no Porsche GT3RS? Stuff like that. Los Angeles is one of the LARGEST markets for performance cars and yet year after year they dog us at the L.A. Auto Show.

A bunch of odd looking imports, some ‘Green’ cars, etc. Lots of cars on lazy susan’s spinning around, and lets not forget the Famed ‘Kentia Hall’ where you can find some 28″ hi-roller rims and other badly styled cars (a few good ones however). You can be sure Al and Ed Autosound will be in there full force pumping some tunes.

The overall ebb seemed low, but since this was an early admission day, might have been that. See ya’ next year…maybe.
