Going to the autoshow

boothe · 01-26-2006, 07:25 PM

I'm heading to the DC Autoshow this afternoon, let me know if you want me to check out a specific car or take pictures of something for you - I'll probably get the pics up over the weekend.

A buddy of mine went yesterday and said it's pretty sweet - 2 floors, tons of cool concepts. He said the Camp Jeep set up is pretty cool, he actually got to ride in a Commander on an short off road course - so I'm definitely hitting that up. I'm also looking forward to seeing some of the models that were a hit in Detroit like the Imperial and the Challenger.

Anyone been/going to the Detroit, DC or LA shows?

I was at the Detroit Auto Show, and it kicked ass, but there's probably going to be a helluva lot of different stuff, here's some of the pictures it took:

Those pics are sweet, thanks for the link.

I've been to Detroit before, so it will be intresting to see how the two shows compare. Rumor has it there are a lot more concepts at Detroit - that's my favorite part, so I hope DC holds down the fort on that front.

So I made it to the show, I didn't have time to upload my pics last night, but I will get them up next week.

The DC show definitely didn't have as many concepts as I remember Detroit having - much more 2006/2007 stuff, and the displays were not as fancy overall. Still awesome to see what everyone has coming.

There were some cool DUB cars, one that "started" as a 300C SRT8 Chrysler, and another all black, rocked out Commander with tinted windows and some sick rims on it - I would definitely roll in that!

I'll get some pics up next week - but you all should definitely try to make it to one of the shows if you're nearby.
