The Baltimore one was SOOOOOOOOOoooooooooOOOOOOOOOoooooooo lame last year. They had to space the cars WAY out because there were at least 25% less cars then prior years and there was nothing special at all. Even philly is notably better than our car show.

No doubt Baltimore sucked, the NYC show last year was GREAT! I heard the DC version is supposed to be nice. I think the Baltimore show was a failure.
I wonder if World of wheels will be back?

The last time we went to a car show was when we picked up our 96 Impala. It was on display in Baltimore (I think). Sadly, we had to get rid of that one, too many attempted break-ins.

Now if we go to any shows/gatherings, it's GM or Corvettes at Carlisle.

ZR1>Ferrari

Don't believe me then go look at the 08-09 Nurburg ring comp..

Which Ferrari did they test against the ZR1?

Regardless, Ferrari will ALWAYS be > Chevrolet

I can afford a Chevy though, Ferrari... Not soo much. The Zr1 is a supercar but is still GM and much as it sadden me to say, the allure of having a Barchetta, Marnelo, Enzo, 360, Modena, California etc is hard to argue with.

BTW, they pitted the Zr1 against the 430 and 599.

Yeah, the allure and prestige of the Prancing Pony is too strong, no matter how powerful the offering from the Bowtie.

Fabulous. And you can keep that prestige in a little box with the cloud of dust I'm going to be leaving you in. ;)



Okay, all teasing aside, I ADORE the F430.

I'm pretty sure the Volt we saw at the NYC motor trend show was nearly production ready. Dont expect many changes. BTW, I'm going to Amelia Island Concourse D'elegance this year!
