Smart has an interesting selection of cars...Even a cabrio, and their interiors aren’t too shabby....(more below).

Holy shit, Mercedes Benz has some nice ass interiors! I really felt the luxury and many dollars I cannot afford in this S550.

They’ve also got interesting color combos.

The 2017 R8 looks much better in person than in interwebs photos. But I still miss side blades... ;_;

The 2017 Lincoln Continental MKZ looks rather good without the waterfall grill round front end in my opinion. Sure, it’s more bland and like everyone else, but it looks good to me.

Likewise, the new MKZ Continental looks amazeballs! The door handles are sweet, the interior looks awesome (especially the front seats), and it’s a step in the right direction for Lincoln I believe.

The new new 911 rocks some decent looking slats to go with the turbos.

And the overall package looks damn good. This color is also wow.

The 911 Turbo Turbo is also looking good as always.

The Boxster Spyder has a cool top.

The 488 GTB looks better in person. Much better looking than the 458.

The new M2 looks downright sexy and I love the front end of this thing.

The S90 was the best looking sedan at the show and anyone who says otherwise has their own opinions, but they’re wrong.

Also had the comfiest interior!

And...

Driverless blah blah blah. But I thought the display was sweet.

I would very much like a Fusion Sport. Damn thing looks good in all areas.

The 2017 Escape, I liked it more than I thought I would. It looks more Escape than it has since the 2nd gen. And it actually wears the grille better than I was expecting.

I actually like the look of the California Special more than I thought.

The Focus RS feels no different than a regular Focus ST when it’s not moving.

For the first time ever, I can finally see over the gauge cluster in a new Camaro!! ^_^

And I really like the way the interior is laid out, and it doesn’t feel too shabby either! It is a bit cramped and I miss a physical handbrake, but I like the ring selector thingys!

As much as I can’t do big vehicles, I fit and feel quite right in a Challenger for some reason.

The Avista concept is stunning.

This isn’t nearly as awkward looking as I thought it would be.

Cool!!

It looks alright?

And GT meets GT40

That’s all I’ve got to share from the show!

I love the R8, but it’s aging horribly. This shape already seems pretty old.

You know, I just can’t tell much of a difference between the old and new Fusion to be perfectly honest with you.

And is that booth professional leaning on the Continental? Tsk tsk.

These two have been standing around this car at least since I was there last week... that’s got to be rough after a couple days. Also wearing the same dresses... hopefully they just have multiples.

Yes, and they’ve been leaning on it at least since the show opened to the public:
