Finally I got my pictures from this year's Detroit Autoshow. The pictures dont really do the cars justice, I had to use my crappy 3.0 mega pixel camera :ohno: But I took a few pics of some of the more interesting cars. Hopefully I will go back later this week and update this thread

Mitsubish EVO X Looks a lot better and smaller in person, the Recaros look really uncomfortable though

Evo X actually looks sexy now.

And Mazda seems to really be coming on strong now....

I like the Mazda concept car the most. That Ford Steam was way too weird.

^Definitly. Of course almost none of them resemble anything that gets to the market.

Why do these companies always make such unrealistic and future looking cars when we know they won't make production? Just to show off and get attention?

^ Yeah.

A girl I know went the that show, too. She took some sweet pictures of a Subaru Rally car. I proceeded to touch myself.

They had Travis Pastranas X-games rally car there and a few other form WRC. I have a pic of it here somewere...

EDIT:

Here's Pastrana's rally car, shitty pic I know.

WRC rally car. Pic is from last year, but they had the same car this year.

Gran Turismo 4 simulator. The chair moves the way the car does in game. They told me I was too big to play :'(

It's such a fluke that Pastrana won. He's so lucky that Colin McRae messed up, otherwise McRae would have won.

The volt seems so awsome . 150mpg ? I'd fill up my gas tank once a month if even . Heck my daily commute is only 15miles each way and half of it is high way and the other half is bumper to bumper highway . I'd prob be on the eletric motor most of the week . At night i could plug my car in my garage .

The Volt does seem like an awesome idea. I'm always up for better gas mileage! ^_^

The volt seems to be following in the footsteps of GM's EV1, hopefully GM wont take em back this time and keep on making them

I think there's plenty more plug-in hybrids right around the corner.

didn't get to go this year!(wasn't living 20 minutes away from it!)

But the R8 was my favorite car to use in GT4...the R10 is just as beautiful..

Nice.
