Tomorrow is the last day of the 2 week long 96th annual CAS. I got 2 free tickets from work and will be spending the whole day there with my digi and laptop taking pics and transfering the to the HDD so I can erase the Memory Stick and just keep on taking pics. After the auto show, a few co-workers and I are gonna take some of the 05 Kia's off the display and keep them over night since the dealership bought some of them.



So, I get to enter free, drive home and keep a new car over night, and have some fun with it HEHE.



I'm gonna be taking high-res pics so if you guys want any specific one of any cars let me know and I'll get them. BTW, if anyone wants some video of any cool cars let me know and I'll get some and upload it onto my album. I'll take a **** load of pics so you guys are sure to see some nice cars and get some nice wallpapers.



Here's the official CAS website where you can see the floorplan and displays.

CAS = Chicago Auto Show





I just got back. The show was alright, crowded as hell. No Enzo or Carrera GT but there were some Vipers and a Mopar prepped SRT-4 for fun.



Got vids of the Eclipse Concept, and also the Ford GT, and a little walk bay an STi.



Took like 85 pics or so in all. I didn't really have a chance to get some good pictures since it was crowded as hell but I think they turned out alright. Hopefully I'll have everything uploaded and ready for viewing tomorrow.

Most of them were accessible, the exotics weren't.
