A tad bit late…

…but for the Easter weekend, my bro, my pops and myself took a mini-vacation up to the Empire State to preview/review some of the latest offerings from the automotive world.  Here are some highlights from said road trip.

Feeling restless about midway through the trip, I turned to the camera for refuge.

A fender bender?…on the Turn-Pike?…Getouttaheya!  On a brighter note, gas isn’t as expensive up here as I thought it’d be.

We finally made it.

Some shady characters at the show’s entrance…up to no good i’m sure.

Cadillac CTS-V…I must have one of these.  M5 eat your heart out!

Another dope concept vehicle from Cadillac.  This one replaces the Sixteen they were showing for the past couple of years.  It looks closer to production ready than the aforementioned unit, and is supposed to run on some alternative fuel (I was too busy looking at it to pay attention to the announcer).

Yet another amazing display of the tunability of the Scion xB platform.  It was actually converted to a pick-up truck, I’m not sure why I didn’t snap a shot of the back.

Bumblebee!!!

Allow me to introduce you to the Nissan GT-R…my other dream car, albeit the less practical one.  Porsche, eat your heart out!

The Fisker Karma.  Would you believe that this is American made?

New E-class.  Maybe I’m crazy, but I detect hint of the Lexus GS series in these new styling cues.  Tisk Tisk Mercedes.  Regardless of the “biting”, it’s still a dope ride!

I forget the name of this one, but it’s an electric car by Dodge.  It kinda looks like a mini-Viper.

Questionable hair cut…

The Genesis has NOTHING on the Equus!  This is what a $50,000+ Hyundai looks like.  They were trying to guage interest in this model to determine if they’d have a decent market for it in North America…I say DO IT!!!

After the show we took to the streets in search of nourishment, because everyone knows show food and show food prices “are for suckers!”

Hustle and bustle of the city.

Vertigo

One of my idols

Time to go back home.
