Talking So i was at the Chicago Auto Show last night

i got there with one of my friends and we were edgin to see the new camaro, the second we come up the stairs to the main floor we see the new challenger staring us in the face, i dont care what anybody says, that is really a good looking car, but anyways we decided to explore some more and we come up to the Fords and we saw the new GT-500, it was nice but i wasnt impressed, They did have a GT dressed up like the old GT-40 race cars, anmd that was really nice of what you are able to see when its on the stand it looks just like a dressed up GT, i wasnt a big fan. so we turned around and we see the C6's and i was like S*it man it has to be somewhere. so we turn and there it is, what a glorious sight it was to see, you guys were SO right, i mean i loved it seeing it in the pictures but they dont do the car justice at all, i must have stared at it with my jaw dropped for a good 5 minutes. Wow, just wow is all i can say..... ill have pictures up here later but yeah it was truly an amazing car, and my heart is rested knowing that its possible that my favorite car will make production. okay as i said ill have pictures on here a little later, im out for now

Re: So i was at the Chicago Auto Show last night

Oh My God is all I can say, I just got back from the Chicago show and I can't get the **** eatin grin off my face. The car was unreal. You guys were all right!!!! You must see this baby in person. I swear my buddy and I watched it spin around on that stand for about an hour and a half and we must of listened to that lady's speech 5 times. I can't get the car out of my head I have pics too but I took way too many to post up here and plus I don't know how to post them lol. I spoke to a couple of chevy dealers who just saw it for the first time and they were mezmorized and they said man this is a definite seller, not like that damn SSR Anyways it was a great time and the challenger was pretty sharp too for being so damn big. I think i just liked the pistol grip!!!

Also visited the CAS this past weekend. What I noticed is that people at the Camaro display just stood there, mezmorized. My wife and I stood there about 20-30 minutes and we were elbow to elbow with the same people the entire time. No one wanted to leave

I'm SO Jeolous. We're not getting it down here in the number 2 best selling state for f-bodies. Go figure. I'd be staring at it all day. I'd even put a fresh coat of drool wax on it.

Just got back from the Chicago Auto Show and all I can say is wow! The concept looks ten times better in person. Other highlights of the show were the Challenger which was also a very nice looking car and the GT500. I will try to get some of my pictures up soon.

Seeing Camaro Concept pics makes that white Mustang look like a watered down rental ready puff to me.
