Detroit Auto Show Thread

[S.B.G]

If anyone is interested, I attended the Detroit Auto Show last weekend since I live in the area. I took a bunch of photos and finally got around to editing them tonight. (Link to Flickr album at bottom of post)

Some of the makers I took photos of include:

• Ford
• Lincoln
• Chevrolet
• GMC
• Cadillac
• Buick
• Dodge
• Jeep
• Audi
• VW
• BMW
• Mercedes
• Bentley
• Jaguar
• Toyota
• Mini
• Lexus
• Tesla
• Porsche
• Harley Davidson

I was surprised that none of the exotics were there like Ferrari, Lamborghini, McLaren and the like.

The most crowded displays of all were probably these, in this order:

• Chevrolet Corvette
• All of Ford
• Lincoln
• Cadillac

In the Corvette section, you nearly had to push your way around the cars and couldn't stand around too long or you'd be pushed aside!

The Ford F-150's and Mustangs were equally crowded but you were able to walk more freely than at the Corvette display.

But the whole show was crowded and I was there on the second-to-last day of the show too.

You can view all 253 of them here on my Flickr page: 2014 Detroit Auto Show.

I want the new Z06....

And I don't know which I like better...

The Colorado.

or the GMC Mini Me, sorry Canyon.

The Canyon does have more features than the Colorado like a 2 speed transfer case, autotrac( auto 4wd), better interior, etc. But in terms of styling, I like both!

IMO The GMC Versions always beat out the Chevy.

Edit* didn't realize this was a three year old thread. I assumed it was recent since it was a suggested thread. Sorry for bump

VW needs to bring back a retro looking bus. One that is based off the 60's era bus! I bet they could pull something out that looks pretty freaking cool!

I can't stand the way the chevy/gmc fronts look. Hideous. I can say, my buddy has a 2015 and it is nice to sit in and drive. Super smooth and the interior is nice. But I don't like the front ends.

I also hate the new Ford front ends. Really the only one that looks good is Dodge.

I think the bus would be a good seller.

Is this the front end you are referring to? If so, yeah not a fan either.

If done right, I think it could be a big seller! As long as they don't make it to "bubbly" for a lack of a better term. I think this would be killer looking!

Ya the new headlight assemblies are hideous.

Yup I agree. I actually like the previous years grill. Thought they looked pretty cool, this one, I am agreement on this. Yikes. Don't like it at all.

Don't see many of those except in construction environments.
