Man ... the Americans started 2008 very well!

2008 Detroit Auto Show (North American International Auto Show)

by Aaron Gold (and me!!!)

The North American International Auto Show -- or, as it's better known, the Detroit show -- is the premiere auto show in the US, taking place as it does right in the back yard of America's automakers. Once again, several new models are being shown to the public for the first Click on the thumbnails for more information about each car.

This year's Detroit show is open to the public January 19th through January 27th. Thinking of visiting? Check out some machines:

Audi R8 V12 TDI concept

2009 Audi TTS Cabriolet

2008 BMW 1-series convertible side top down

2009 BMW X6

BMW X6 Active Hybrid concept

Buick Riviera Concept at the 2008 Detroit auto show

Cadillac CTS Coupe concept

GM "car czar" Bob Luts

2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1

Probably I'll open a new thread, today or tomorrow, about this car. I loved it!!! The new ZR1 features a supercharged version of the 6.2 liter engine that premiered in the 2008 Corvette. VEEEEEEERY powerful!

The blower cranks up the output to 620 hp, and the suspension is cranked up too; Chevy claims the new 'Vette will easily generate 1g of lateral grip.

2009 Dodge RAM 1500

Last year, I told to all of you somethings about this "big mule".

I'll work in it after the topic about the Corvette above. This new Ram looks to be a very good ... and strong ... pickup. If I remember, Rory and Eric like it.

2009 Ford F-150

No comments on this one. Absolutely DAMN FANTASTIC!!!

Like Dodge, I posted informations about it last year. I can post more if you want...
The new F-150 is, to my eye at least, a much better looking truck than the one it replaces.

Ford Explorer America concept

New to me...
If any one of you want to talk something about it, I'll appreciate.

2008 Dodge Zeo concept

2008 Honda CR-Z concept

2009 Hyundai Genesis

Lexus LF-A Roadster concept

That's it people. Feel free to comment.
