I'm not the guy who took your free ticket, my name was on the list.

Thanks to Mark and Mistu for the free ticket. I got to see the whole auto show, and went to the Dr. Evo reception. Sport Compact Car made a presentation of the second year in a row "Car of the Year" to the EVO VIII.

The best car at the L.A. show, IMHO, was the Chrysler ME Four-Twelve. Quad-Turbo 12 cylinder engine and carbon fiber body. 850 hp, 0 - 60 mph in 2.9 seconds, 0 - 100 mph in 6.2 seconds, 1/4 mile in 10.4 seconds at 142 mph, and top speed of 248 mph !!!

Also, there was a Lotus Exige in the aftermarket exhibits, that had the same 0 - 60 mph as the Four-Twelve.

All in all, it was not one of the best auto shows. Not that many interesting debuts. The Ferrari F430 is nice, and the new VW Jetta looks cool. I like the new Audi A4 bigmouth grille, but the tail-lights are ugly.

So much for my review.

P.S. Your linky no work right now.

That ESX STI is going to be made for Subaru. there is going to be a limited production of 40 initially, with full factory warranty. It has 425 hp. however, it will be selling for around 50k, which is gettin a little pricey...

Wasn't me. I had my ticket before mailed to me prior to the event. It was cool to here the mentioning of the Evo IX and even the X... always good to know they have plans to keep the Evo going The IX should be unveiled in the next month or so in Japan... at least according to the Mitsu rep there.

Was the new Eclipse there? The Mitsu truck that is in the pics is the concept one, and not the real production truck.
