    2011 Chicago Auto Show

    Chitown guys..who went? What caught your eye? Any dissapoints or surprises?

    I went last night and can say my favorite car of the whole place had to be the Lincoln MKS. Exterior design, interior design, fit/finish, ecoboost..the car is just plain sexy especially in the vibrant white they had there, with light interior and bleached wood.

    Another one I would love to have is the Lexus IS350 or ISF, sweet cars that are very well made. Maybe a little too small for most, but fun
    nonetheless.

    Something that caught my eye was the new Buick Regal GS, car has a 2.something six cylinder turbo making 275 HP, with a fully manual transmission. Looks pretty decent as well.

    The Chargers look decent from the outside but unfortunately have a hideous dashboard, with a ginormous square screen in the center and real bulky buttons..that just doesn't leave me wanting one.

    They had a new Caprice cop car, as well as the SHO police cars. The New Camaros are still ugly and the Mustangs were plentiful, with several Boss 302s, one even on a dyno every hour, to show the cars sound and power, as well as 5.0s and a Shelby GT500.

    I'll upload pics later..

    I found the girl with short hair at the Porsche display to be very appealing.
