Los Angeles Auto Show 2007

[HeilSvenska]

This is ridiculous. I can understand why the operators decided to move the show date from January because of the Detroit show, but moving it all the way to November seems too much. In any case, I hope it means more North American debuts at the show. :wink:

You know what? I saw on in Anaheim the other day, about 3 or 4 weeks ago, I was trying to get my camera phone out but didn't have enough time.

I was on the 57 South and I merged onto the 5 South and he was heading towards the 22 West. I was thinking about chasing him too, but figure it was too dangerous to cut across 4 lanes at the last min.:-D

But damn, that was a GRRRRREEEAAT looking car.

MERCEDES DEBUTS S400 BLUETEC DIESEL HYBRID CONCEPT IN LA

Mercedes-Benz is holding the North American debut of a bold new powertrain at the Los Angeles Auto Show, open to the public November 16-23, 2007 at the L.A. Convention Center. The new S400 BLUETEC HYBRID combines both clean diesel and hybrid technologies by using the latest BLUETEC diesel instead of the gasoline engine that usually helps power a hybrid.
