Nice pics. I'm heading up to Cleveland in a few hours. I always like going to the IX center.

 

[BlackTigers]

I'm seriously debating running up there later today. Should be fun.

Ugh! Still wish you bastards would have postponed the trip to today. I had to work. BUT NO.

I want that 350Z. OMIGOSH. Maybe I can catch next years show...

 

[The Boston Dangler]

nice. looks a lot better than the world of wheels here in boston a couple months ago. we saw the highlight of the show 10 seconds after parking the car in the lot. obviously, the hummer driver is a total puss.

Good stuff. Old VW's (my forte') and that Buick Riviera concept is absolutely bad ass!!!!!!


I dunno.........if Buick can keep the "GM" outta' their design room..........they just might have a chance of being the next great car company!!

Enclave
Lucerne
Riviera concept

Heck, I'd almost mistake that Riviera for an Infiniti before anything from America!

The Cleveland show was limited in terms of exotics, so Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, etc, were not there. I think...I could be wrong since I just walk from the entrance to my display usually

Porsche, Maserati, Lotus, and Saleen were there. Ferarri and Lambo weren't (they never are).

edit: I should add the Mas and Lotus areas were just dealer booths, so they didn't have a huge showing. Just a couple cars. And there was no Gran Turismo.

Ah, didn't remember seeing Porsche. Maserati, Jaguar, Lotus and Saleen were all local dealers, so I don't include that as a proper showing. IX Center was freaking huge though...and the ferris wheel was rather amusing upon first sight.
