Los Angeles Auto Show

Yup, it's that time of year again. If you haven't already, you have to get over to the LA Convention Center this weekend to check out the Auto Show. I go every year, except we only had 2 hours at the show this year (I've spent about 12 hours at the Auto Show in the past). Of course, there are always ups (!) and downs. Here's an up...the Audi R8.

And here's a down. The Spyker D12 Peking to Paris (what kind of name is that?)

They had some of my favorites:

Mini Cooper
2006 Mini Cooper

Aston Martin V8 Vantage

And some old school classics:

Ferrari 275

They even had one that looked like the next shoe from Nike:

Mazda Nagare Concept

But nothing hurt more than the smashed up Porsche Carrera GT
they had on display for the new "Redline" movie. Ouch.

Crushed Carrera GT

For a quick slideshow of all the pics, go here.

Okay that Spyker D12 from here to there is too funny! They aren't selling it in the states are they? Who made this!? Paris to Peking? Interesting.

Aston looks sweet!
