Went to the auto show yesterday. I was kind of disappointed with the turnout. It seems that it's getting smaller every year. Nissan wasn't even there. I wouldn't recommend going unless you can get in for free like I did. GM had the best display by far which you can probably tell.

Where are pics of the SLS??
I would agree though, unless you can get in for $5 or something, it's really not worth attending anymore. Nissan, Inifiniti, BMW, Porsche, or Mitsubishi had a booth.

I have a couple of the SLS but the ropes were in the way so I didn't bother editing them.

I never understood why it costs to get into. You want me to pay you to look at yours cars, that I might buy? Last time I checked dealerships didn't charge to look around. If they want to sell cars it should be free to get in, and they should limit it to no more than 200 people at a time. I went once, and it was so crowded you couldn't even look at any car up close, much less get a picture without waiting 20 mins for the perfect second no one was walking in front of the car. I will never go again. There's only 1 or 2 manufacturers I'm interested in anyway.

Crowds definitely weren't an issue this year. That's how I was able to get these shots. The last time I went it was nearly impossible to get a good shot.

Thanks they're all hand held.

no pics of the R8 convertible? That was probably the best looking car there to me.

excellent shots homie.. me and a few friends went there today as well since IFO got canceled due to rain.. I may post up the pics i took later if they are worth a shit.. my 35mm was acting shitty on my D40 for some reason, slow on the focus and sometimes didnt want to focus.. :no:

Yeah I saw it but I'm not a big fan of verts.

Thanks man. I've never had any focusing issues with my 35. Maybe it's the electrical contacts on the camera?

The tuner IS-F was actually GREDDY supercharged as well. Nasty looking ride.
