Went, and came. Was kind of let down by everything except Honda, Acura, Ford, and Lincoln. Everyone knows what to expect from top tier makers, and I've already seen them, so nothing new there. I went there last year too, and honestly, with the exception of the 4 makers I mentioned, I felt like I went back in time...it was all the same.

The Ford Fusion was simply stunning, as was the NSX.

I've started planning on what my next car purchase will be, and since I want the next car to be the one I keep for a LONG time, I wanted to do as much research as possible there...ie: opening and closing doors to hear how them sound, checking for random rattles, sound system check, interior quality check, underchassis quality craftsmanship check, you know...the whole works. I like cars that are mechanically built well, not like a toyota that has parts hanging from underneath. Come time, I'll have a new car from one of those 4 makers(with exception of the NSX, obviously).

Here are some pics of the cars I was interested in the most:
