Just got back from taking my wife and kids downtown to the Auto Show. Not bad once again. The Jeep road courses are back and so are the "take your picture here" set ups. To make a long story short, I got my skinny ass in a Cayman - man that car hugs you when you sit in there, no wonder it was so hard to get out of it (and thats not 'cuz I'm 6'3'').

I will have to own one of thoses. It was hard getting me out. Unfortunaly my camera jumped into a bucket of saltwater, so it works, but I haven't gotten a chance to see how well. My buddy did get a pic of me on the BMW motorcycle though.
That was a really great show, kinda wish I had time to see the Jeep thing but overall really nice, I think Next year I'll have to go to NY or Detroit to compare.
The disapointed me on the CGT though, but there was McLaren
