Just got back form NYIAS

Just got back from the New York International Auto Show. It was great as usual, but there have been better ones. Not much was there to be excited about, I mean, there were years where the Auto Show kicked ass. This one however wasn't as good. Not too many new things out. As my dad said, it's a dead year for the auto industry and I have to agree with him this time. I was still in heaven 'cuz pfft, duh, I'm an auto enthusiast :p. So people who are in the area, I still recommend 'yall to go but just want to tell you, if you think this show was great or it sucked, the NYIAS has been better before and have no doubt that there will be better ones in the future.

What sucked was: MY DAMN CAMERA BATTERY DIED HALF WAY THROUGH. GAH! Pisses me off. Not only that, I had to take pics on my phone camera and I'm having trouble uploading them. >.<

So pics will be soon. I'll get the ones off my camera then ill post the ones from my phone later.

Boy, you need to be more prepared; get two sets of batteries. (I did when the show was in my area) :D

Glad to hear you had a great time. :)

OK! Here we go. I had to resize them for AF pleasure. So if anyone wants a pic, PM me. They're a good 1600 by 1200 pixels, and they work very well as a desktop wallpaper, however some of them are too fuzzy for it. But we'll see.

That Gt500 is supercharged if my eyes aren't fooling me.

I'll bet you 5 bucks Caroll shelby never touched it.
Or he "Designed the driveline"
which means basically "He didn't do anything"

Really a pity, that ford sucks so much.

anyhow, nice pics, thanks for sharing, and kill the kid in front of the 430 (I Love the f430 :D )

I organized a group to go to the show again at my school, and I went today and got some pictures that I wasn't able to get before, and I retook the F430 for you fans :). Too bad I didn't see that kid who ran in front of that pic the first time, cuz I was gonna strangle him! :p Just gimme a chance to resize them for AF viewing pleasure and to upload them.

OK. Here are the other pics I promised. I took these Saturday, April 2 (my b-day :biggrin:) when I arranged a trip to the auto show with my school. Most of these pictures are of the cars that I either missed cuz we walked right by them the first time I went (last monday) or because my battery died.

Here are some clearer pictures of the new Aston Martin DB9
