LA Auto Show 2008 - not as busy or interesting as the past, but some very interesting stuff anyway.
|
Art Center in Pasadena had a special exhibit - the best of the show, so we'll start here.
|
It's Gary Kaberle's continuation of the Bertone Alfa B.A.T. series, BAT 11 first shown at the Geneva show earlier this year.

On to the rest of the show - starting with Porsche
|
Nice logo in the hall
|
|
And model Cayman framing....
|
Jerry Seinfeld's 550 Spyder
|
Seinfeld's 550 is original - not paint cracks around the coachbuilder's emblem.
|
|
I have a thing about these Spyder emblems. Shot one at a previous LA Auto Show.
|
If only they could hav emade the Boxster look this good...
|
911
|
|
Lots of red brakes and cars in unusual colors
|
Red metallic - a touch of bronze
|
And black wheels are in style
