A few pics. It was really crowded when I went, so I only took a few shots.

My buddy Greg pointing out curb rash lol.

The next two are AMS shop cars, the place that works on my car when I need help.

I'm lovin the GN...the bumper is kinda cool. I just can't understand why people swap V8's in them when the 3.8 turbo V6 has just as much potential, if not more, than those V8's! It's a sad world....

That was my first thought as well. Maybe they like the v8 sound more, or perhaps not having to worry about the extra maintenance of a turbo.

Who the heck is responsible for THIS tragedy??

Aside from the camo paint, I think it looks pretty good.

What the hell kind of car is that yellow one?
EDIT: (the second yellow car)

The U.S. Army. Due to the failing economy and relentless budget cuts from the Democratic administration, the military has turned to Hyundai for all their vehicular needs. The bullet proof plating is difficult to see.

I don't think he's talking about the Vette, but the yellow one posted a few cars below it.

Some badass cars there! I like that little Genesis coupe, 306RWHP from a 2.0T motor is pretty impressive. Same motor from the Evo if I'm not mistaken just Hyundai engineered. They're really making a name for themselves. The Dodge EV is just sextacular and that's all there is to it, I love the wheels on it. Badass auto show....nice shots!

I can't remember now ... I thought the same thing when I saw it at the show. It's a 500r or a GT500r or something like that. No idea what brand anymore. I'll ask my buddy greg, he'll remember.

My favorite

Christ. I realize that the EV is kinda yellow, too. I should have said "third yellow car" but whatever. The unknown car does look Ford GT-ish, but cooler.

I want to see a Dodge EV in a different color and without the stickers. So far I like it. I saw a YouTube video where it beat a Challenger SRT in like three drag races in a row. That made me like it more.

That's a Ford GT, with a kit to make it look "more" exotic, saw a redish one at Laguna Seca last year

1 more cool car will be in next year's DC show. AMS, my shop (the owners of the white skyline and EVO) have asked me to have my car entered in the show with theirs .......

Yellow car appears to be a Factory Five GTM, slightly modified.

That would be the one. Not a bad looking kit car for $20K. I wonder what motor that one had in it.

I'll have to get some pics of the Philly auto show online.
