Now, I see the same "script" is still being used.

They should have introduced them as 2013's from the start the way things are going...

So that was the very same model? My wife and I were wondering if they got local models or if the models traveled with the shows.

Agreed. I'm going to be frustrated once I finally get my '12 and then the '13's are released a month or two later.

The Pagani and Lamborghini make the other super cars look old and out of date.

Unfortunately, since the ATL show is always pretty small (and relatively unimportant in the grand scheme of things, it took an extra year to see the Camaro Concept in person) the exotics are hardly ever there. If they are they usually won't let anyone get near them, so this year was actually a surprise that one of the local dealers brought a few cars and let people get up close to them. No Aventador (which was supposed to be there! :( ) but the Gallardo is probably my favorite anyway. I would even want one in green, but with a real manual (this particular one had the damn e-gear).

It's too bad. The show used to bit bigger. A few years ago they had Porsches, Mercedes, and Butler Tires always had a Lamborghini they had "remodeled".
I was disappointed the NSX wasn't there. They didn't even have a poster or any artwork showing it, at least not that I saw.
And I wanted to get in a Lotus, but the one they had (Evora) was locked up tighter than Dick's hatband.

Yeah, I forgot about Butler Tire. Porsche was there last year, I got to sit in the Panamera and Cayenne. I'm not a Japanese fan, but I was curious to see the NSX, too.

I am doing an Exotic Car Experience this Saturday and will get to take the Gallardo manual around Joliet Autobahn Country Club Racetrack 3 laps. I was SO hoping originally to drive my ZL1 there but C'est la Vie. I will get lots of pics if interested?
