No other way to make cars faster and maintain reasonable fuel economy. Subjective not as much fun as NA however. In that regard, I really prefer the base C7 Vette. Really....it is all the performance anyone needs and you could really equip it and mod it nicely to optimize the NA performance.

How did the Lexus look in person? I'm surprised Lexus is going all out with their extreme styling, pretty ballsy....

Also, does the front splitter on the z06 go up into the front fenders? Thats interesting...

I have to say I'm not that overly excited about the new m3/m4 styling, the e90/e92 m still looks great IMO. Not as much of a styling change as the e46m to the e9x m. I bet the new turbo s55 will be very fun though.

The Lexus looked better in person i thought, that front grill is like Blackchrome so it wasnt really Ugly like i thought it would be.

I couldnt tell but im pretty sure that vent is active to the wheel.

Yah The M was nice , but both the M4/3 where really kinda Lackluster, Luckily BMW was at the front by the doors in came threw because if you saw all these other Bad Ass nicer Shaped cars first (Lexus, Vette, and some others) the M really would be to regular.

Ive said i loved the New M, BUT after seeing it in person i really think our E92 M3 look better, a lot better. The M,s at the show had the Carbon Brake package and them brakes are AMAZING tho.

Yah i really like it to, i knew the LFA was a world class car, but in person its so sweet and small lookn, the inside is a lot like a fighter jet cockpit or something, the cars shape is just so perfect.

I agree the e9x m still looks great.

Was the supra concept there? I'm definitely going to the ny autoshow and was hoping the supra concept was there as well as all these cars

GTLM vette looks amazing. M3/M4 kind of underwhelming in those pics.
