Car show was way to crowded today, just trying to sit in a car was an event (didn't surprise me though).
Some real nice metal there.......SL55, G55, Aston Martin Vanquish, Bentley Arnage T. Always like Manhattan Motorcars showing (Panoz, Lotus, Lambo, Saleen S7).
On the normal scale.....350Z looked great, the G35 is simply awesome. Getting a close look at the Evo VII was cool.
The new Viper is out for me, big dissapointment (they killed that car).
The CL's were getting no attention, depressing

I went on Sat. I found it funny that I was looking at the white TL-S and I clearly remember seeing the Type-S emblem. I then notice the CL-S"upstairs" was missing the logo and remeber they are prone to theft...walk back to the white TL-S and it too is missing it! Gosh they are quick. i then checked the others and all were hit! WHY ARE THEY STOLEN! Xenons I understand, but logos!!!! That's sad.

Show was so-so. I was done in 1 1/2 hours. Crowds wern't too bad but get and print an E-ticket. Lines in the morning are long. There was really nothing outstanding to mention except for the Mazda RX-8. I love that thing.
The CL wheel gap was huge... and why Acura brought none navi cars is beyond me. It's an auto show, pull out the stops!
Other than that... eh.

i was at the NY autoshow last night and i noticed a few things...first of all Acura didnt have ANY CL or TL type S on display..and the 2003 CL-P that was there had the 2001/2002 seat heater buttons (with 2 settings) and the trim was the burlwood (isnt it the fake metal now or is that just on the Type S?) also..the infinity G35...i have to say, the interior is absolute shit!!..looks like a KIA inside..the exterior is smooth and im sure its a fast powerful car but that interior is god-awful cheap and chinsy...the Pontiac G-Force is definately a step in the right direction for the Grand prix...280 hp/280 tq. gotta love that in a sedan!!

Did you guys check out the Nissan Murano? It looks pretty impressive on paper. SUV with the same VQ35DE engine tuned to 240 hp, and it comes with a CVT!
