SD Auto Show

[Cruisin1]

Went yesterday and it was pretty cool. They had the Nissan GT-R and BMW 135. I thought it was cool that they let you dyno the new lexus IS-F.... now that was fun

I saw that at the Los Angeles auto show. I shot a couple video clips of it but the people "driving" it during those clips clearly didn't know when to shift and bogged the engine once or twice.

Do you mind posting the vid? I love the sound of that V8.

Also, how do you bog an automatic?

They were probably using the paddle shifters to upshift waaay to early. I would have had that thing redlining the whole time. It's not my car, lol.

I'm at work right now but I'll see if I can find it later this evening.

Yeah, sounds like SD got all the cars from LA...not too bad. The people working the show had to fly out on Christmas evening, but at least they get to be home for NYE, whereas the Indy show goes through the 1st.

Glad you enjoyed the show, probably saw a few of my friends and coworkers
