Default Supercar (exotic) car show

Just had an incredible Supercar show here, probably around $10 million in exotic hardware shown. These two were about the only American cars in the show, but they still garnered a lot of attention.

Setting was beautiful, an outdoor mall with a few streets that run through the center, called The Promenade. The weather was lousy, and I decided just to spectate. Was going to meet up with a fellow Pontiac owner (70 Trans Am), but with storm clouds coming in, we called it off.

Lots of Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Porsches, BMW's, a few Aston Martins, Maseratis, the highlight being a Bugatti Veyron [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/shocked.gif[/img] . Pretty cool when these guys fire up their cars and rev them. People begin videotaping, and it sounds like a Formula 1 starting grid.

This 69 Camaro was awesome. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Here she is, excess defined. Got a lot of pics of this car. I was going to wait until they left so I could try to race him with my 2005 Bonneville GXP, but I think the guy was scared.

Dave,

Butt Ugly, is a bit too harsh.....just say this.

I would glady take that Black Camaro over any of these Exotics [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

This sounds much better on this friendly forum.

Dan

I know they're kick-ass fast and I truly appreciate the engineering, aerodynamics, ..... all that, ........ but I can't get over that nose. It just reminds me of an ant-eater. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]

I'm with you Dan. Set them side-by-side and give me the choice: ....... I'm drivin the Camaro home. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

I'd take that black '69 Camaro over that Bugatti any day of the week; whoever built that car did an outstanding job. So many subtle changes that make the car so nice.
