i know i have tons more from other car shows... maye i'll take a look for them sometime (i'm at school on a computer between classes now so i'll do it at home :))
 
My first impression from the NY Auto Show was just how retro many of the cars looked- there were many many unabashed references to the fifties. That aside, the American cars far outshone their European and Asian rivals, and I really think it is one of those good innovative carefree times for American car design. Here is what I found.......
