DC Auto Show - D_Eclipse9916 - 01-13-2008
Alright kids, its coming up, the DC auto show. A bunch of friends and I including MM people are caravanning up to DC And taking the metro in to go take a look at how manufacturer's messed up this upcoming year. If you are interested just post up here, we will be going as early as possible sunday morning, may drive up saturday night. Ive noticed very early sundays there are very little people, which makes the experience a whole lot better.
It is the 27th and tickets are buyable online through the link below for 10 dollars.

Can't go Sunday morning, but I'd love to go during the week after work. Just a quick metro ride away! Anyone down for going during the week about 6pm?

Check HT anyone interested, Ross is trying to give away VIP passes for the GT-R unveiling on Wednesday morning.

I think I'm down. Some of my former coworkers want to come too. Maybe we could hit a bar, restaurant, or both (Dave and Busters or ESPNZone) afterwards?

show was fun. not super crazy but my expectations werent for a detroit-esque carshow.
The GTR looks killer in person, and not all that big. Still not as hot as a Z06 but it does have a back seat.
Booth babes were a big meh, EXCEPT for one working Chevy. She made up for all the rest. Oh my. If I had a dime for every time Lorena rolled her eyes at me for gawking :p
unfortunately I didnt get any pics....I already felt like enough of a stalker. I guess I should have just put on the big zoom lens :p
They had a BMW 135 there which was a tad dissapointing. It looks way to toy-ish to drop 37k on one.
I dont fit in a solstice
New M3 gives me a boner.
Lotus was not there
It was funny seeing a guys SM there whose ass I kick in every race :p
The domestic displays and presentation was nice. Most of the imports just parked their cars in the arena.
I really think detroit is trying much harder to please customers and get the word out than imports are, who seem to just be relying more on reputation. We will see if in 10 years things arent flip-flopped back how they used to be.
