Nice pics, I like the one of the little boy hugging the steering wheel. I imagine I was like that when my dad took me to the Baltimore Auto show as a kid.
C7 and NSX look nice.
Did everyone notice the hidden clean looking door latch mechanism on the NSX?
I don't like the look of the new Indy car, that back end looks awkward.

It's very quiet. I wish I'd been allowed to drive it. It's tight inside, but the ride is smooth and the fit and finish are pretty good for a GM product.
I still like it. The wheels are just OK, but I'm sure those aren't going to make it to production. Looking forward to seeing these on the used car lot in about 2018 or 19 so I don't have to pay full price for one.
They've sucked for years, where you been?
Seriously, those wheels never make it to production and we end up with plain-jane wheels.....entirely the opposite direction from the concept cars. Thank goodness there are aftermarket wheel makers so we can choose something decent.
They're not that bad, but they certainly don't "pop", do they?
My main objection to the Shelby ST is that it is currently all show and no go. I spoke with the reps there and they indicated they were working on a tune for the ST, which they guessed would increase hp by 50.
I suppose that's a lot for a little engine like that?
Thanks! Damn Priuses. Frankly, I'd rather have a Volt (if the prices come down a little more).
Thanks for enjoying the pics, all.

I don't want to derail your thread though because the other 99.9% of the cars are AMAZING!

I'll take the CF hood and rear spoiler, and the wheels while I'm at it.
But damn, too bad they used an ST1 as their framework. It just looks way too plain jane.
Thanks for sharing all the pics, Bob.

50whp would be impressive, 50hp is pretty on par for a good tune. The problem for me is the Fast and Furious graphics. It's like they've ignored the past 10 years and suddenly found themselves back in 2003. Those graphics are absolutely horrible. Just doesn't look "Shelby" to me, it looks like someone's bad take on import inspired styling.
