Thanks for sharing... I love those kits they make for the new Camaros to make them more retro looking..

This was an Infiniti show car. If you guys get to the show, do not miss this thing. The paint job was simply unbelievable, and pictures don't do it justice. It wasn't chrome, and it wasn't polished metal. You just have to see it. Maybe one of you paint guys can explain how they did this. It looked like liquid metal.

Interesting to note that the 2011 Pace Car Hugger Orange is not the same as the 1969 model.

This is the &quot;street sweeper&quot; dam on the new Volt. It's a flexible rubber skirt, but it's going to get seriously marked just going over speed bumper. Only about 3&quot; clearance. And this thing will make a great snow plow on the streets around Chicago. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif The Volt was the best display at the show this year.

Thanks for posting the pictures. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif

My wife and I are going down there in a little while for something to do.

I really want to see the ZL1 and my wife wants to see the SS convertible.

The SS grill and hood are very cool. The pool table not so much lol

Separated at birth?

Looks like one of the Cylons from Battlestar Galactica.

The 5th picture down is my favorite, and I'm not a big fan of the Dodge Charger, but somehow it's very attractive.

Steve,That car is a Revolution Styling Camaro By Tommy Z from Grand Rapids MI.That car came from Berger Chevrolet through GM for Tommy.Quite a designer he is.A little out there for my taste but definitely cutting edge.

I do like the grill. How do the headlights work, though?

Here's another Cylon car, this one had the huge dubs on it...

One of those goofy Corvettes with a hole in the hood. Some guys name across the windshield... <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif

This was from another auto show. The guy driving the car behind the model subsequently drove off the stage...
