Couple of things. At night they close half of I-10 West, out till Wilcrest. So try to avoid I-10 on the way out. Also there’s two sim racing things there. One is Hyundai’s, which is just GranTurismo whatever with a seat and pedals. The other one is Acuras, by the NSX, and it’s a VR thing. It looks awesome, but they closed it before I got a chance to go on it. The ride and drives are lame. All boring cars and you get to drive like 5mph. I wouldn’t waste your time. Although they might change up the cars on later days. The aftermarket area’s fairly lame too. There’s a lot of cool classics, but other than that it’s bro-dozers and murdered out Ferraris and shit. Although the stock exotics are in that direction too.

Wait till you see the brodozers. They’re hilarious.  

I’ll do the full post tonight and post it again tomarrow around noon, I guess. Since that’s a thing.

Here’s a small list of some cars I saw and took pictures of.

Lincoln Continental

Acura NSX

Lexus 500 whatever

Aston Martin, something new and grey

Couple of Hyundai/KIA concepts, and the stinger.

Audi A8L

Hilarious brodozers

Old Bugatti replica

Cobra replica/ and powertrain

plus other neat stuff.

But doesn’t the LC500 just look stunning in person?

It does. I’m not sure what I think about the predator grill, but the way it’s designed/textured is incredible and makes up for it.

I think because it’s a coupe and the styling is a little on the extreme side, the “grr” face sort of works for it.

I just got home from the show.... bruh.... that car made my pants explode. On par with some sort of modern E-Type level of automotive beauty

I will admit, I walked straight past an NSX GT3 to look at the LC500 at the Chicago show. I can’t wait to see if there’s an LCF. Oh man if I was wealthy, I think I’d grab that over a Cayman or a Guilia. It just has such presence. I probably would want to put Soarer badges on it because I’m that guy but.....

I thought that the GSF styling worked with the predator face, but man this just puts it to shame. Pictures really don’t do this thing justice in terms of how much visual space it occupies in a room and the attention it seems to command. Hell the one I looked at was sand colored with a tan leather interior and it still popped out of the crowd.

Just uploaded it. It’ll probably take Kinja 15 minutes to show it though lol. I’ll post it again around noon or soon after.
