I went on Friday with some friends, it was a ok show. Some car models were not even their(R32, C4, A4, S4), & hardly any swag. Most annoying of all, most of the show workers were in huddles talking to themselves, & not very friendly.

Wish I had gone to SEMA!!!

We went and the kids had a great time. Cars all look the same but we got a chance to look at cars for Caryl and maybe narrowed the choice's down.

Best of show by far imho with most people around it 10 times more than the ZR-1 parked in front of it was the 2010 Camaro. It's got great lines and great presence. I'm glad I ordered one last month

The Scud was there but no one really knows what they are all about. To 999 of 1000 people there it's just another cool Ferrari. The camaro had 25 people standing around it all day

My son loved the Camero, just because it was Bumblebee in the Transformers movie.

Where were all the models? The best sales person of the day was a lady in her 60's telling me about the new CTS-V. She knew the car very well. Too bad all they had to look at was a STS-V to look at.

I think my son had a better time than I did at the show overall.

How old are your kids Mark?

Rob I have an 8 year old and Caryl has a 12 and 10 year old. They were the same. It's amazing what a free ice scraper will do to a 10 year old

the two younger ones got two really full bags of brochures we get to throw away today.

Yep, sounds just like us! Colin just turned 9 in Oct. I let him "drive" some cars. They have to just love it when I let my kid get in and hit every button and switch like he is in the Indy500, at least that is what he thinks =)

The ice scrapper was a winner with us too. I think we came home we 4 or 5 and a calendar.

We should do a 6Speed kids event. It would be fun to see them all hang out.

Great pic by the way.

After the Dennison tour, I didnt feel like lugging my camera around yesterday.

I agree the Camaro they had on display was by far the most exciting thing there. Can't say the same for the ZR-1 and the GTR near by.

I spoke to the Chevy rep there but wasn't 100% sure how close the actual production car will be to the one on display. Also is it true that production will start in Jan and delivery 3 weeks after?

It's a great looking car in person! Wonder proportions, & nice lines!
To bad, that car, has no running gear, no, engine, & no suspension, it's just a rolling shell.

Vince I don't actually know. When I ordered the car early last month they told be possibly Feb delivery but I don't care as long as I have one coming. Hey can I park something at your house? I'm in need of more room

As far as production differences I believe the obvious door handles will be different. The mirrors on the Bumble Bee are a lot smaller and the grill I believe is just a touch different.
