November 21, 200520 yr Went yesterday. Unlike previous years. GM didn't have a pile of their year old concepts. In fact the only concept they had was the Aura. They also had an Escalade with an irridescent paint job. Last year they had the Nomad and the Cad 16. The Aura and the Sky were tucked back in the very remotest corner of the show. Rathe poor presentation for an up and coming brand! BUT, the Sky IS awesome. Just a gorgeous machine. They had two Solstice on display, one on a turntable and one you could sit in. They categorically refused to raise the rear ldeck lid. They are really feeling the heat of that design decision to put that big lump in the trunk. The were very quick to state the storage dimensions but they refused to show it. The best concept (of the very few there) was a Lexus 2 door, 4 seat convertable, ultra sleek style. Chrysler had a 300, a Charger and a PT convertable all tricked out in ultra pimpmobile regalia. Some people don't like this. I thought they were incredible. Especially liked the butterfly front doors. They also trotted out the old Dual Cowl Phaeton concept. You could get your picture taken in front of it. Still an amazing car, with a bleak instument panel. They also had a couple os dozen Vettes from almost every year, couple of dozen Ferrari's old and new. and the biggest row of Lotus's I have ever seen. About 18 assorted types.
