2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I'm really dissapointed in 2 things.

1. The Honda CR-V looks kinda sweet, minus the wing.
2. That blue subaru looks like dump.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Great pics! Anna is actually begging me to go....I think she wants a new car.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

We also went this weekend. It was better this year than it has been in a couple years.

Mitsu finally came this year, and had an Evo (last year no mitsu, previous two years no Evo.) But from talking with the guy from brookdale at the show, Mitsu was not going to go but the three local dealers got together and put up the cash to be at the show and supplied the cars. So big props to the local dealers if they see this, I think it was definilty worth your cash, thats a big audience!

Scheides, you should take Anna. Its fun to walk and look at some of the cars you normally wouldn't go look at, as well as sit in some cars and see how they are.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

What did you use to take those pictures and did you photshop them at all?

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Cool pics. I really dont like what audi is doing for styling. Im glad bmw is picking their cars back out of the garbage in the looks department.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I think its great that Scheides and Suzuki teamed up together to do a reenactment of the barrel roll maneuver from the cruise.

Fah-queue!

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I ps'd most of them. It sucks because I accidentally was deleting some pictures from dated pictures and deleted some of the Vette and Lexus pictures. I'll post those up from my brother's camera. All around the show was pretty good, I did sit in alot more cars this year than all the other years I've gone but this is probably the first time I've gone since...03.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

wow, great pics man. Didn't realize they were so nice, I was just looking at them on my phone last night.

Some of the full body shot pictures make the cars look like little toy cars haha

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Wifey bought tickets for this friday. Should be fun.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I went Saturday, good stuff. One thing to note is there was a huge line for the new STi and no one was giving the Evo X attention. I actually had to argue with a guy that it was an evo, I guess that's what they get for making them look exactly the same as the baseline.

I think the new STi is the best looking car to come out from Subaru in the past 10 years, I'm actually thinking about selling the Evo still and getting one ;) But I'm sure that'll change when I get my Evo back.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

He hadn't gotten to the back yet, but I told him to look at the Turbo Mivec print on the cover and he shutup.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Great pics. I agree Kia and Hyundai seem to be stepping their game up. I'm definately going to consider them when I eventually look into buying a cheap small econo-box gas friendly DD.

The forte koup looks like a cool little car, I heard they are thinking about putting a turbo on it for 2012 (I think that's the year?) and possibly AWD.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Yea that blue STI is naaaasty. I used to like the sedan better than the hatch, and now they have ruined the sedan for me. ick

Hyundai and kia are def getting nice.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Different strokes for sure, we'll see if I get one or the new FT-86, only time will tell.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

i think the sti would look sweet without the wing, it doesnt look to bad with it i like it

There we go, the new FT-86. I could see myself getting one of those.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I was there on Sunday. It must have been nice to go without the crowds. I hadn't been to a car show in forever but scored some free passes.

I liked a handful of cars that I've never seen before. Sat in the Lexus IS-F and fell in love. Very comfortable seating position. Similar ceiling height to a GT-R but the ergos were way better. I'd love to take a few laps.

What is it with brown cars this year? Nasty.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I like the looks of the Subyota FT-86 thing, but the info so far on that new 2.0l motor is a bit disappointing.

I sat in this and I must say...do want.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

heck no Id rock the crap out of that, I like weird looking cars..gets better gas millage than wrx, rear seats fold down for lots of storage room (which I need for hauling rallyx wheels and tires), comes with with a 2.5 cyl turbo engine with 5spd manual, only downside is its fwd.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

gross. I agree with Jake

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Good use of a wideangle lense.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Id rock a C30 too. Weird rear end but the rest is hawt.

They were supposed to come out with an awd 300hp model, not sure if thats still going to happen. Either way 5 cyl turbos sound like jimp.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Good pictures and PS work!

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Is it just me or does the new STI look like a Saturn Ion Redline from behind??

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Well... they are both blue, and they both have spoilers and brake lights if that's what you mean.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

I see a resemblance, STi wing is bigger, that is the biggest difference to me

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

Oh I see what you mean, there's a trunk lid too.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

LOL im gonna have to agree they have a cousins type of resemblence.

Re: 2011 Minneapolis Auto Show (HUGE PIXORS!)

LOL!! haha. i noticed something about the new STi's looking like the Saturns! haha.
