I didn't take pics of the new stuff, basically you had 6 new Challengers, some late model stuff on 22-30" rims, a hugger 99Z and a blue LT1 Camaro.

Compared to the past few years, the show has gotten a lot better. Not as many boring imports! I was there till 7pm today, just got back a few hrs ago. Only two 4th gens that I noticed, lame.

Number of imports is wayyy down, so that's good. Seems like they have the cars more organized based on style now, hot rods with same, lower riders all in one area for the most part, so it wasn't the mishmash I've seen from 4-5 years ago. I had a positive impression of the show.

The red '69 Camaro with the LS- engine was nice I saw that one.

That hugger orange 4th gen was nice but it had no grille not a fan of that look.
