2003 Houston Auto Show (not too 56k friendly, TONS of pics)

I went yesterday afternoon, well worth the $7.00 I payed to get in.

Looks real good in person...huge tires, wheels, and brakes on that thing.




Zoom! Zoom!


Better Zoom! Zoom! Race RX-7


The 7 and the 8 together.


More RX-8...the rear door is a neat idea.




This is a Miata worked on by Flyin Miata. Has a turbo kit and the works done to it. Good for a peak ~250hp at the wheels!


Just thought this would make an intersting picture.


Modern Images 03 Tiruron. Very nice...turbo'd...nx kit....


told ya it was nice...


I'll take one.


Not too crazy about this particular color...but I liked the feel of the inside...good old BMW. (by the way thats me on the passenger side...)


Ex-Bond Car


THE reason to come to the show.


On sale here in a year. Est. price is $28,000.00 The Lotus man there talked to me for a bit...he drove this one here.


Pictures don't do it justice. See it in person.


Up close and personal


Huge surpirse! Was not expcepting to see this here.


Wish I would have gotten a shot of the inside...


Neat Infiniti Concept car...2 seater SUV...tons of cool features.


Everybody's favorite Neon!


Yup...its the 2 Fast & 2 Furious Lancer Evo 7. The Eclipse is in the background.


Can't tell from the crappy picture...but the bottom of the front bumper on the Evo was cracked pretty bad.


THE OTHER reason to go. Lancer Evo 8. Here REAL soon.


Give me 30k and I'd be in.


I'm a 350z fanboy at heart.

Enjoy!

Actually they had a crew of about 10-15 people constanly walking around and touching them up. When I was looking at the RSX-S engine one of the guys came over and started cleaning the hood and pushed it down...forcefully....I was holding it up with my own hand.
