And only $6.00? That's a beautiful convention center they have there.

I'll bet your extended visit goes about as well as mine - look, but don't
touch.

Other than the occasional cropping, the pictures are just as they came from
the camera. Where possible, I prefer to shoot without flash, so you can
imagine that there were plenty I ended up deleting.

The Jaguar is stunning in person. But that brings up one of my big
complaints about mainstream cars these days - a lot of attention is paid to
the front of the car, occasionally the sides, but the rear end (especially
on FWD sedans) always looks like an afterthought - like it's just hanging.
What makes a design like the Jaguar work is that the lines flow from the tip
of the nose to the rear quarters, up and over the trunk and back around to
the front. It's a "finished" product.

Makes you wain nostalgic for the days of big ass rocket ship fins does
it?

Without a doubt the fat ass on the latest incarnation of the Corvette
is my least favorite part of the car.

Jags have been consistently the best looking cars available IMO.

Speaking of fat asses, the Mustang has one helluvone. Much more so than
the Corvette, which is a damn nice looking car.

2 cents as always..

I've always, always loved Jags, unfortunately all I can afford are the
low-end Ford versions, so no ownership here.

Nah the Vette's ass is waaaay fater then the Stang. When it comes to
the new Vette, baby does indeed got back.
