They don't look the same. The Exige 240 has the big scoop on the roof!!!

...or at least it is suppose to.

Ha Ha - don't remind me.

I think my bank account is going to be much poorer in 2008.

Hey - the auto show is open on Saturday - right?

BTW - still now pictures of the 240. What's wrong with you people .

On the surface not much is new.

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=242836

I was appalled at the SF Auto Show. There were small groups of kids (12-16) wandering around molesting, for lack of a better word, every nice car they could find. Missing shift knobs was a big problem. And the worse, was it was during school hours! How are kids out of school, at and auto show and running in packs without parents? (hooky I guess...)

took a gang of pics...120 or so. Spent 7 hours over there! unbelievable... spent some time in Lotus booth and lookin at STi, M3s, C63. I've got to free up some time to work on the pics. Damn that 18-55 XTi kit lens is crap! If the 17-85 was decent i would have bought that long ago.

OK, for those of you that didn't make it out to the LA auto show this year. I took a bunch of pics with a regular digital camera.

I also took over 160 pics, but i only uploaded about 80 to this flickr link. Sorry, not all the pics came out perfect. I went on a Sunday, and was fighting crowds to try and get decent shot angles.

Anyway... Check these out if you have time.

Looks like there were far more cars at the LA show than the SF show. I was actually disappointed with the lack of much of anything new and exciting in SF
