    What a great design this 2002 Turbo. The first BMW road car with the Motorsport stripes (them another great design in terms of colour combination).

    Simple timeless elegance, perfect proportions and yet dynamic and aggressive.

    BMW must find their old design ethos and move away from anonymous barges.

    P.S. Great pictures! Thank you!

    What a show!

    Didn't recognize the two white cars that looked like concept cars. What were they?

    First one is the Bertone Mantide, a conceptcar designed by Jason Castriota, now head of design at Saab, and supposed to appear in a small-scale series. Technical basis is the Corvette C6 ZR1. Does anybody know whether this is one of the intended production vehicles as the prototype was initially painted red?

    Second one is the new model from Shelby Supercars, have to look up the model name though... Tuatara.

    Great pictures !!  and what an amazing bunch of cars, very impressive seeing all that in the same place. Mike should do his holiday shopping at this place, maybe he can get a discount after the first dozen.

    AWESOME Pictures.

    Think this was the 1st year I missed it since 2004( ?), I've had my Challenge Stradale & F430 in the show before.. Love the location which is very close to my home, a few miles down Northern Blvd.

    It's nice to see some muscle cars, classics and race cars, the first couple of years it was really just exotics. And a Helicopeter?? That's pretty cool...Man, how'd I'd LOVE to own a Veyron,,,,,,,,,,I'd put up wth people asking me "yeah but where do you even drive it"?? ALL DAY, wouldn't bother me in the least,,, from what I've read about how it drives geeez would love to own that car......

    What's the deal with the concept looking cars?

    Those cars are the Bertone Mantide and the SSC Tuatara. Supossedly they both work, since the owner drove them in. The SSC Tuatara will be on sale next year according to the owner.

    what color is you 360CS and F430 i might have pics of it from last year?

    On the Mantide, a few years ago the owner turned it over to Automobile Magazine for a coast-to-coast road trip across America with a McLaren F1 and a couple of Ferraris

    Here's the story... (the Mantide was red then)
