St Louis Auto Show 2006











Went to the 2006 St Louis Auto Show this evening with Sally from work. The show is held at the American Centre & Edward Jones Dome which is just across the road from the office & about a 5 minute walk from my appartment. The dome was carpeted & full with cars with practically no signs of the American football pitch that normally calls the dome home! The show is a smaller version of the North American International Auto Show that was held in Detroit a couple of weeks ago. There were loads of really cool cars there with a surprising large number of familiar makes & models, but in alot of cases the cars weren't the same as in the UK. Although the new Challenger & Camaro concepts weren't at the show (shame!) Chrysler debued the new Imperial - a seriously cool, huge luxury car that reminded me of a larger version of the new Rolls Royce!
