Cars and More Cars!!

I went to the LA Auto Show and didn't see too many cars that I liked.  I just got back from another car show and saw SOME cars I liked.  So this post is to combine both and hopefully have something worthy to make a post.

First up is the LA Auto Show.

This is the new 2017 Ford GT

Every angle looks good!  600+ HP

Sorry for the crappy angle.

You should know what this is.

1967- 1968 Mazda Cosmo!  

For the uninitiated, this was one of the first Japanese sports car.  

Today it is super valuable at 1.5m.

Say Hello to the Aston Martin DB10.  Yes, this is the car seen on the latest James Bond movie Spectre.  They actually built the car for the movie and made 10 more for some extremely lucky individuals.

Back side.

1965 Alfa Romeo TZ2  Super rare.

One of the original supercars.  

1988 Countach 5000QV

Horatio Pagani is the designer of this car.  He believed in the material carbon fiber so much that he encouraged Lamborghini to buy a super expensive autoclave but they didn't listen to him.  So he believed in this direction so much that he ended up mortgaging his own house and buying it himself and starting up his own auto company in 1992.  Don't worry, I got some pics of his cars!

You have to open the passenger door to get to the fuel filler.

The fuel filler is in the doorjam.  The interior is crappy.  

Such a striking car has a depressing interior.

So next up was an auto show/ toy drive at the Santa Anita Race Track parking lot.  This was pretty neat.  I saw some neat cars and some crappy ones also.  

This is the 1997 CLK GTR.  

These cars are super rare, only 25 have been built and this is the first one.

Big step to get in.  Ordinary Mercedes dash.  

Super cramped inside.

I can't believe this car is street legal.  The owner is Ben Chan.  He actually drives this car.

Even the car carrier is cool.

This is the Pagani Huayra (Pronounced why-ra).  These cars are super rare.  Only 100 exist.  This one is company owned and is a prototype for development.  The car is made completely from hand out of carbon fiber and does 235 Mph.  

The interior is really funky.  There are some compartments that you get custom luggage matches the seats.  No cupholders!  

Passenger side, closer look.

Mercedes 6.5L Twin Turbo powered!  730 Hp.

Rolls Royce Wraith for sale with some extra tacky options.

Check out the 75k in ugly options.
