NY Auto Show Pics (lots of AMGs, ZL1, CTS-V, SRT8's)
I went to New York this weekend to visit my older brother and his family; this weekend was chosen because the NY Auto Show was still going on. Being a car nut, I snapped a bunch of pics of some of my favorite rides. You can tell that I'm biased towards certain rides . . .

I think Jeep failed in the rear without the center exhaust. On the other hand, the new Dodge Challenger looks HOT in so many ways, great improvement over the last model.
I would love to see if the new ZL1 is going to have as much success as the CTS V in terms of how quick the car is compared to weight.

It's interesting to get other peoples' perspectives. I thought the Jeep SRT8 was awesome, although I'm not a fan of the wheels. The interior is greatly improved with real carbon fiber, which is tastefully done. I also like the 300C-SRT8, but I might be biased since that was my last car. The cars also might look better in person.

Lose the long or carry a wide with you. Nothing but close-ups with a long lens is annoying without a pic encompassing the entire vehicle to place everything into perspective, which should be the first pic of the series. Just a tip. Nice shots otherwise.

Just like being there without fighting all the guidos in NY for pics. 
That ZL1 sounds interesting. 550hp stock with short throw 6 speed.......how fun!!

Yup. I only brought one lens into the show and didn't know how close we'd be able to get. A fast 50mm, or 28mm would have been perfect.

Been there too many times. I swear if it were a rifle, people would still walk in front of it.

good grief, it's about time chevy got an interior done right! i was expecting them to ruin yet another iconic namesake and although this car isn't a true inspiration from the original, i'm still impressed with the new zl-1.
