Chicago Auto-Show LOTS of pics.

Here are a bunch of photos I took yesterday while at the auto-show, forgive me as I don't remember all the names of the cars!

Enjoy

Well start off with some Porsches'

Turbo Convertible





Targa 4 (obviously)



And My fav, The new Cayenne GTS... I love this color! (My ma has the Cayenne S!)








How about some BMWs



M3 Coupe



M3 Sedan



M5 (My brother has this one!)



Some "DUB" Vehicles

Charger



New four door Jeep


Cherokee



Nissan Skyline GT-R



New Challenger






Kitted Charger





No Idea what this is...





New Lancer EVO




Audi R8



Buick Riviera CONCEPT







Some Hyundai Concept



VW Tiguan (SP?)



Trailblazer SS


Some Chevy Concepts





Aero-x (Try to figure out how the doors open...!)








New chevy Camaro





CTS Coupe CONCEPT





ZR1 Corvette (It had a clear glass slot over the block on the hood!)


Oooo chicago!

No mercedes ?

Thanks a lot for sharing the pics. Porsches look nice This year is going to be really interesting for europe. The new BMW X6 will hit the market and the new BMW CS will also hit the market this year. Merc is preparing some surprises also. Mistake the BMW CS will hit the market at 2009

I checked out the Mercs but didn't take any pics... If I took pics of every car, I'd still be there! Plus there was TONS of people around the mercs and didn't want to wait around.

Mercedes is trying to change it's image and make it's cars more sporty. They are facing a transition period
