N.A. Auto Show in Detroit

[CntdwnToExtn]

So, anyone gone to this yet?

I'm headin' accross the boarder after work in 45min (hopefully not busy!)
Wonder how long the lineup is going to be in the basement to drive a hybrid!?

I guess they've "toned it down" this year with spending money on how their exhibits look - go figure.
Quite frankly though I never really cared for the flashy ones. Just show me the cars and let me sit in them!

i went to the one in virginia beach va and it was pretty good. mad at GM because this year they didnt have a Z06 on display, just a Z51 base model, but they had the new V6 camaro, again disappointed because they didnt have the V8.

Good! That means it'll be here in Ohio! Usually, whatever they DONT have in VA, we DO have in Cleveland!

:laughing:

i was disappointed, they had a Z06 last year. and the stupid GTR was there. but Cadillac had thier 550hp CTS-V, so that was cool to look at.

 

[Crysalis]

Yes... I did see that caddy. They had that blue Z06 as well as the ZR1 there here. For the camaro, they just had a plastic replica.

 

[philbar71]

^ you mean ZR1 not l strange that they had a plastic replica of the camaro.

 

[Crysalis]

yea yea... I always mix it up with the old camaro zl1

 

[philbar71]

^ you mean the Z28? Chevrolet never had a Zl1

 

[Crysalis]

Oh no... ZL1

The camaro to end all camaros:
