It would definitely be a tough choice if I had to pic between these 2 500HP monsters.

Yea, I really didn't like it at all. I like the older style looking Altima but the 2007 does have alot more gadgets.

The E63 is badass. A guy valets one for every Magic game so I've driven it a couple times. Obviously I can't do anything stupid in it but you can tell the power is there.

The m6 actually looks alot better on the road. I saw one, I must say great attention to detail. Loving the huge wheels and the dual exhaust that it comes with. Very fast as well.

They pretty much bring out the same exotics to all the Festival of Speed and Int Auto shows every year it seems. The guy that owns the Enzo, FXX, Benz CLK-GTR, etc etc lives down in Sarasota and comes out to all the shows. Unfortunately, outside the exotic section it was pretty much like a dealership showcase.

It's cool that you got to see the VQ35HR on that G35. I'd be over there taking that engine cover off if I were there to see under it.


Oh well, I would have come but I was too tired from the trip to sema that I returned from the day before. Like I told someone else, I think I saw enough show cars there to last a lifetime.

He's got a CLK GTR as well. Not sure if it was @ this show but I've seen it before.

FXX is probably the nicest car I've seen in person. It's literally astonishing. Don't even get me into how rare they are ...
