    Portland Auto Show 2009

    Did anyone else go? Here are some of my photographs that actually came out ok. the lighting in there is strange. The show had 0-1 concept cars. If there was one, I missed it. The shows in previous years were better.

    exotic section




    they also had a black 599 GTB Fiorano. mmmmmm tasty. no good pic though.

    brakes on the 430 scuderia:





    who knew portland had a lambo dealer?
    superleggera:



    perfect except for the wheels. i love the gallardo.





    new gallardo lp560



    brown on brown 997 turbo





    what a fugly car from this angle:









    funny the difference the flash can make:








    the surprise of the show for me!



    iirc, these are 335/25YR20's





    thanks for looking. if you also went to the show, it would be cool to hear what you thought of it this year.

    Wow. The brakes on the 430 Scuderia looks like my huge dinner plate.

      Cool. Thanks for the pictures. I couldn't make it out this year, unfortunately, but every time I go I am largely unimpressed :(

        +1, but coming from the tulsa, oklahoma show, it is an improvement.

          Nice work Daniel. I did not go for the reasons stated above. You can basically see the same shit at the Auto mall. Where there even any good looking girls?

            not too many, but i went on sunday evening so it wasn't very crowded. there weren't SEMA style models, either (obviously).

              i went on Saturday and i have to say i was somewhat dissappinted. The past 3 years have been grat, but this year they didn't really hve a lot. The thing I enjoyed most was the custom car showcase.

              Oh and by the way, the lambo dealer is really Gran Prix Imports a.k.a Lamborghini of Portland. They sell a bunch of other awesome cars as well

                It's an auto show, what can you expect? It's not like it's SEMA or even HIN! You go there to check out new cars.

                The concept cars are kind of interesting usually, but I didn't miss them. I liked the 100 years of cars section. That was the best by far.
