I have always been a petrol head, my dad is a mechanic and I guess its in my blood. I went to the car show it was fun... for the most part. I mean it did not have any of the super cars and concept cars that you find at sema, or the LA and NY ones but it was cool... there are some cars that did stand out though.
The first is the Audi super car, the R8. The R8 is Audi's version of the 911 a super car that you can use everyday. well not for grocery runs unless you are just getting one thing, but then again if you can afford an R8 you will not be doing your own grocery shopping :-) This is the 09 model the new 2010 R8 has a sleeker look with a better looking back end. The car no longer sports dual exhausts in the back just a single on which in my opinion looks sooo much better!!!
The Next car is the classic, the New Dodge Challenger Hemi powered awesomeness. Now even though it is very heavy and not as good looking or sporty as the Mustang of SS Camaro it is still a beautiful car! I remember when I first saw the classic version in Vanishing point I was in love, then when it was brought back in Death Proof, I was hooked. So in essence, this is not the fastest car on the block but if you were ever to cross the country in style, get a white one, I know I would and I usually hate white cars ;-)
Now the the Fantasy cars, and to start with we have every import car persons Asian wet dream the New Nissan GTR. This car turns so well that if you sprain your neck, and some have. Back in 04 I had the pleasure to drive in a 1993 Nissan GTR up graded to the max. This was in Japan and it was my brothers car, after an illegal street race on the way back we jumped on the famed Aqualine and hit speeds well over 190km, loved the sound of the engine and boy was that thing fast. With this new model i would like to got back to Japan and check it out again. I
know that it is now available here in the states but its just not that smart to test the cars limits here. I have to say at this time that I do not condone speeding, and as most of my friends and family know, I am not the fastest driver on earth, maybe the slowest but hey " you can break the law and go to jail and get anally raped if you want to but not I" (Boondocks). Either way though I would not mind taking this car up and down the dragons back, and if you do not know what the dragons back is kill your self, or just google it ;-) As for the car its self it is an everyday super car with enough trunk space to go shopping and actually buy things without having to worry about seating them in the passenger seat. Also for those with friends the car has enough seating for 4 even though your friends who end up in the back seat will hate you. Lets face it seating in the back seat of a super car is as low as you can get... there is no way you can look cool back there. but in the front two seats it is heaven, and you actually stand a chance of getting layed, and isn't that the point!!!
Last but not least it is the Corvette ZR1, man this thing is fast! and handles great. Corvette have always been a favorite of mine though i do find myself wishing that chevy would go back to the 1963-67 body type. To me that was the Vette was at its best, and looked the best as well. I mean it can just be a special edition similar to what Merc is doing with the SLS AMG which is sure to be an instant classic. But the ZR1 is amazing I love seeing American cars realize there potential! Now the great thing about all corvettes and the ZR1 is not different is the truck space, this is one of the few super cars that is well usable to some extent. good job GM now lets go back to the 63 body style :-)
