Cool Detroit Auto Show

I'm leaving to go to the North American International Auto Show, in Downtonw Detroit at Cobo Hall. Of course I'll be checking out the Land Rover exhibit. Does any one else have the ability to see this show or have been to it already? I should be able to post pics later if i have the capability. It'll be cool.

if you have the time, check out the competition for me, so we can see what kind of 'trail rated' bullshit comes up, that we can mock. there's also rumors of a 4 door Wrangler (think D110) that im currious about.

I will soon try to post pics guys, sorry it took so long to see the thread, I'm working on a video that i made of the Land Rover exhibit at the Auto Show. BTW, "Trail Rated"? More like street rated, the new J**ps including the new 07' Wrangler, are not that great. I'll get back as soon as i get the pics! Which might be tonight!

I'm working on the vid as we speak, as far as "Spy photos", as I was driving home from my college in Ohio, I spotted a concept covered in black car covers and I tried a snapshot with my camera phone but it didn't turn up. It looked like a Chrysler made SUV or something.

Oh and the only thing at the LR display was the RR Sport, RR HSE, and the new LR3. No new concepts to show off. Oh well, good stuff though.

if there was a new Defender concept, I'm sure we would have known about it long before Rage was there.

All they had were two of the following:

Range Rover HSE
Range Rover Sport Supercharged
and the LR3

I wished to have seen a Defender or a concept, but like Bene said , we would've known about it, and you guys would beg for me to get stuff on the new concept, as far as specs go and pics. LOL
