Nope...the Ford section actually blows this year...they have a 03 Cobra ad H.D......no Mach 1, no 03 L...just a GT,Exped.,etc..

As a concept they do have the Lightning Rod...it's pretty sharp but it's old...they could of brought the GT40

I was there Saturday......................the Lightnin' Rod was pretty cool, but you're right..........it was pretty lame. The HD was up on a pedestal, and you couldn't even sit in it..................and the '03 Cobra had about a million people around it.

I was there on Friday. Very disappointed in the Ford section. But, the new 350Z cars are very nice.

It started Friday, and runs all the way up to next Sunday (11/17), at the Miami Beach Convention Center........................I'd say it's worth the $7 admission..............beats sitting thru some *****ty movie!!

The 350Z's are definitely the highlight of the show...............There must be about 5 of them, in all different colors and configurations. Now the girlfriend is haggling me to get her one!!!

It would look nice next to the L though!!!

The 350z's are nice,but tell your girl to wait till the turbo version comes out.Im sure there will be one.....When the 300z came out,1or 2 years later came the turbo.

Just a thought

I went with my sister on Saturday night. I wish I could have met up with a few of you. Anyways...I was VERY Disappointed with the entire show. They had the L concept which is old and ugly. An '02 HD which they had last year...and this year they wouldn't let us sit in it while last year they did. I was HOPING for the GT-40...but no. I saw the Z too and sat in it and am not found of the cheap jap interior or small engine (I am particular to 8 cylinders) I took some pics of the Aston Martic Vanquish. And admission is $8.
