Chicago Auto show = fail

Emay · February 14th, 2010, 10:22 PM

Well, took a last minute trip to the auto show and I gotta say it's by far the worst show I have seen and generally Chicago is on point with this event.

Definately see an economic hit too. Small economy, Hybrid tikes and the like are dominent.

I'm going to kick this off with a teaser and toss a few up every so often. I didn't get a lot and I battled the public nearly every shot..

Those may be the best 2 pictures I have ever seen in my entire life. It doesn't hurt that I want that car very badly.

Please tell me you have more pictures of that R8, Erin.

I got a few, thats the 175K bad dog.. Sick car.. I'll dig a few more up and post soon as I get a chance to run through the memory card..

BWAL · February 14th, 2010, 10:42 PM

CLS 550 displayed in flat silver:

BWAL · February 14th, 2010, 10:58 PM

that flat silver is ugly as hell

Emay · February 14th, 2010, 11:03 PM

Gotta disagree there, while I wouldn't have it on a daily, it certainly is sick in person for a custom look..

BWAL · February 14th, 2010, 11:12 PM

i guess i've seen too many silver cars that have been weathered down to that color lol

Here's a shot of the Spyder Zip, Not a pic I'm proud of due to it being out of touch on the rotissery with boundary.

Another of the R8 coupe:

TheUNZippee! · February 14th, 2010, 11:53 PM

Want.

Seabee · February 14th, 2010, 11:57 PM

Some nice cars. Ive been to two La Auto Shows, and those were awesome. Well more the section with the customized cars.

Imran · February 15th, 2010, 12:06 AM

hell, the vette grand sport at HAS had small air bubbles under the fender stripes.

ForestGRN_Ghost · February 15th, 2010, 02:18 AM

those pictures.
were fucking great.

+reps.

Emay · February 15th, 2010, 10:13 AM

Thanks forest, appreciate-

Zip, I didn't do much reading into the sticker. It is that burnt orange kinda color, they probably nick name it something else though. Kinda like Chevy calls their version for 07+ Sunburst Orange II.

The cars are gorgeous and all, but damn Emay you're a good photographer!
