Default 2008 New York Auto Show!
So i went there this weekend, and i forgot my Digital Camera so i quickly went some place in NYC and bought a Digital Camera and took some pictures of the 2009 ZR1 which was black on black paint, the 2010 Camaro and a few others. Sorry some of them came out crapy didn't have time to learn about the camera.
Though i would share some of the pictures with you all, and i have never seen a black ZR1!

The car above (tuned Corvette) Was behind ropes and i started talking to the builder and i basically could recognize everything that was done to the car (thanks to this site) and he let me in so i can get a closer look to the car!
He also does the 900hp solstice which he didnt have with him.

EDIT: the tuned Corvette clames to have 1000hp!

For some reason i only got 2 out of many pictures of the CTS-V which has improved, but i am not fond of the wide spacing on the fromt grils, for the CTS coupe none of the pictures came out, the car looks amazing theo. i didnt have any time to learn how to use the camera i bought cause i left mine at home.



Thats with the LS9 motor!

On the way home from NYC i saw one being test droven, it was many colors so it was hard to tell what it was but i saw the head lights and the G8 symbol. I dont even think they are out yet so i imagen it was GM.

I think that G8 is gonna sell great. I love how the fenders flare out on it gives it a nice wide agressive stance. They didn`t overdue it to much. That ZR1 though is sick as hell wish i could afford one. Its about time the muscle car era comes back.

The G8 should be out they're advertising it like crazy. One 4dr I would have in the garage (M6 of course). You had to figure Ford was biting off more than they could chew supercharging a factory mustang and it would only be a matter of time before Gm did one better like they always do. If the Camaro gets the LS7 as an option they will sell a lot more especially if they're reasonably priced (under 50 grand) b/c the richer crowd will ditch the stock C6 for an LS7 Camaro
