that porsche is just pure hump-the-tailpipe sexy.

even better than the carrera gt.

the civic sedan is nice enough.

that humpbacked veloster will probably turn out as bad as the chrysler crossfire in sales.

the hyundai monster truck really puts the monster in the truck. That's the face of nightmares. Aztek 3.0

+1... AND... first time (to me) the 1-series M actually looked good from the front... I need to see this in person...

That Porsche is just damn sexy! One of the freshest designs to come out of Stuttgart in quite some time. The lines are simple and taut without being busy.

Can someone photoshop this Porsche in the Porsche Guards Red. Would like to see it without all the stickers, etc.

This Porsche is just, cool!

Even though auto shows have been predictable the past few years, seeing these pics makes me anxious for the Chicago Auto Show in Feb.

A good way to spend a cold winter day.

There really wasn't anything WOW this year at the show. But I will give it up to all the auto manufacturers including Ford and Lexus for spending $$$$$ to spice up their displays. Ford had the most interactive displays as in years past. The 918 was one of my favorites of the show although the Porsche product specialists were being difficult as they said "its not in their contract" to take pics of them at their stand.

that front bumper on the m1 has too much goin on... they couldve made it aggressive looking but without over doing it... on another note, the new 4 door civic has a few MB c class resemblances... not bad. thanks for sharing pics! enjoyed them!
