Default 2005 Los Angeles Auto Show Z06 pictures

Here are the pictures I took of the Z06 at the LA show plus some other cars etc. Most angles of the Z06 have been shown here already. The most important picture though was this one.

No, it was part of a display of about 8 or 9 engines showing the evolution of the small block.

Nice pics! I'm going to try to make it out to the autoshow this weekend. I didn't think they would have the Z06 there. I heard they had Dale Jr. and Jeff Gordon drive some of the cars out friday night.

I am so jealous that I don't live in CA right now so I could see all that in person. That is a pretty awesome display of power.

Nice cars, but that HHR looks too much like a PT Cruiser.

What day were those pics taken? I went sunday afternoon and couldn't find the Z06 I took a pic of the orange and the red C6 but the ZO6 was nowhere in sight. The Basement was more fun for me. All the Girls, the lifted trucks, and am I the only one who has noticed like 20 Dodge Magnums on 22's with Bentley front ends. There was like 25 guys selling hot dogs on carts outside it was hillarious. Overall I had fun and my favorite cars of the show were the New Viper, drift Viper, and widebody Corvette running a full windows XP system with a badass paddle shifter

i actually worked setting up the auto show. i was on the porsche experience. i went around and took pics of the cars, but was not there to see the ZO6 come in. i got to see some of the cars drive in. like the new f-430, sounds bad ***, and some of the other racers. i will be back to take it down so i will get picks then. probably sit in it to.
