Description: Cars come to life in LA. Here, motor vehicles illustrate the landscape and the people, from freeways that dissect our geography to our social status and cultural heritage. The Bel-Air Bentley, the college kid's Civic equally represent what cars mean to Southern Californians. We're wrapped up in our cars, rolling along on four wheels and tuned into everything that matters--how they look, how they ride, and how we look riding in them. Our cars represent freedom. Individuality. Like no other community across the nation, we escape into our private worlds every time we open the door and turn the key. No boss. No parents, spouse or kids. Just the road, the sun and our dreams. Features Debuts Vehicles introduced 2004 North American Car and Truck Ford F-150 Toyota Prius The Lucky Three Our Best Bets for Success Vehicle Debuts General Motors Cobalt, Saab 9-2X and the H3T. Porsche Porsche GT Carrera and 911 anniversary Mazda MazdaSpeed Miata Pot holes? Traffic? Sure, we have the stuff that makes driving a chore. But we also have PCH on a crisp November day, Pasadena on a summer evening and possibly the greatest collection of individual car collectors in the world. So it's appropriate that LA is first in line when it comes to the uniquely American tradition of gawking at new cars. What better place is there to introduce the very finest automobiles in the world, and, at the same time, the most popular cars on the freeways? In the midst of a time when people are beaten down by war stories and terror alerts, automakers have come to the city where no one walks and have invited all of us to marvel at a vast range of beauty and function. From the Porsche Carrera GT to the Chevrolet Cobalt, it's true: you can find it all at the Auto Show. Fittingly, it starts in LA. 2004 Auto Show Gallery More Show Photos... d |
