05 Auto show sucked....

[Fastest H-Town Realtor]

Went today to check the new iron...Im a sportscar nut, so if mini-vans float your boat, I may not be accurate-

Ford-Nothing worth talking about. They have some serious yawns in the showroom. Yea,yea, Explorertrack was nice. GT is hot..but old news.

GM-H3 is a big jeep look-a-like. CTS-V is nice also..on the "buy" list for this year.

Diamler/Chrysler-New body style for Merc is nice..sloped rear..nothing else was that hot..

BWM-Nada...Not even the M5 was there..

Biggest draw at the show-ZO6, New Eclipse and..er...um...I forgot.

All in all a waste of 10 bux...

You got to see the Z06? Damn it. Really, I mean it.

Did they have the Jeep Rescue?

DRTY...

We went to the Houston show and while we didn't see a Rescue http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif we did see the prototype Gladiator. Looks like it will hold promise if it ever gets past the prototype stage. I was always a fan of the scrambler pickups anyway.

I am pretty sure the Gladiator is on it's way. The Rescue hopefully will be, it just won't be in the form of the concept and might not carry the same name.

Yea, the ZO6 was in full force, pimped by a hot blonde and very mean looking(the car). I will still await the new Mustang Cobra/ Shelby....rumor has it with the 5.4L,32V and blown...465HP?

The Jeep Gladiator was there and was nice...just not my ball-o-wax.

Ferrari was a no-show...And Porsche still locked up the Cayenne S Turbo so no one could get in...

i saw both the rescue and the z06 at the LA show, I would say the 3 nicest of the shwo though were the ferrari super america w/ glass convertible top, and the new bentley convert based on the arnage. after that the z06 was pretty hot, they had a yellow one there. the rescue, as much as i pains me to say it was awsome, i really liked it, it was just plain cool
