Well, it's hard to believe the car show started on Wednesday and nobody has posted their pictures yet.

So without further ado, here are some pictures I shot on Friday for your viewing pleasure!

Marty let me sit in the S4 and told me that it is a European S4 on loan for the car show and doesn't belong to Glenmore Audi, so that's why it's locked.

My son put his finger in the key recepticle on the SL55. The radio and dash powered up.

Must be the back up battery cuz the show guys pull the battery cables.

Yeah, it's too bad the exhibitors disconnect the battery but I guess they have to do it. Most cars have power seats and it would have been nice to be able to able to adjust the seat to sit properly.

The Echo would be a good basic commuter car. Kinda reminds me of the Renault Clio.

I didn't visit any of the side booths except for Tunerworks and the Bargain Finder. I assume the Ferrari and the Lambo were part of someone's exhibit?

Thanks, but we we ran out of time and didn't see everything. Missed the trucks, Kia, Saturn, Mitsubishi, Suzuki, Cadillac, and most of the Mercedes. :banghead: Spent too much time in the S4! :D

Thanks. I'm sure the 4-cyliner base model will come in a 5-speed manual. V6 model will likely be available only with autobox.

The Ferrari's and Lambo were on the outside of the Coral arena where the big trucks were.

Also in that section was Mau's Supra, a 350Z, Murano, old skool Mercedes, Old old T-Bird and some other cars that I can't recall right now.

Was that in the side part too with the Supra?

One of my favorite cars this year was the Gun Metal IS300 Turbo on Lexus' floor space.

Nope, the V6 is coming out with a 5speed as well
Man, the Mazda 6 wagon looks sweet. Too bad it doesn't get the V6, but it will get awd.

You're right. I gotta confirm these things instead of just talking out of my ass! :D
