A Fiero ($12K Pontiac car from the '80s) just does not belong at an event such as this.

Why? There were Pontiac's, Camero's, Mustang's from the 70's and 80's and one 1984 Datsun last year. If it looks gruesome, it should not belong there... The cars have to be presented to the committee and they decide if it can participate. IMO the only Fiero here in our club (CentralFloridaFieros.net) that would have a real good chance would be Criag S. Torch Red 86GT (PFF: red GT).

We want Fieros to get respect...the only way to start earning that respect is to take nice examples to shows like this.

We are going Sunday around 9am or 10am at the latest. It gets pretty packed after that... you can imagine why Saturday is the black tie event. Are you guys planing on going to that black tie event?


PS
Mitch (Proud88GT) missed the deadline to register his stock '88 Fiero GT. I think it would have had a good chance to get voted in to the show

Beautiful day, great show !

The new superleggra Gallardo and the LP640 (?) Lamborghinis were simply spectacular !

It was cool hanging out with you guys Dave, and Mitchell.

Hopefully Fierocious GT (David) will post his pics soon.

56k dialup WARNING!!! Over 4mb of data (Over 50 pictures)!

I met up with Proud88GT "Mitch" and Exoticse "Tony". It was hot and humid day in Winter Park, FL (Central Florida). Lots and lots of spectators. Wow! what a show. 229 cars this year. I could not post all the cars we saw today. Later I will post some videos of the Mercedes Mclaren and Le mans Bentley. Enjoy...







There is nothing like the original M3 (E30 body)






Only Japanesse car at this years show. Last year there where two (Acura/Honda NSX & '84 Datsun)







Ford why did you discontinue this master piece!




2007 Ford GT40 ?!


Ever see a RED Delorean... Sharp!







Here's a special choptop for Archie & Curly For some reason this one cost $300k!!!










Thats one tuff looking Volvo!









F360 Challenge Stradale... Hmmm those mirrors would look good on Choptop #25 "FierociousGT"


Found replica Stradale mirrors. Damn they don't fold. I got to figure something out so I can use these babies.











Here is my favorite of this years show! Le mans Bentley...

It is on my girlfriend's camera.

She forgot to leave it, so i won't be able to download anything until Friday, cause we both work opposite schedules this week !



Curly you would have loved the superleggra Gallardo's interior, it was an all suede dash with carbon fiber accents and carbon fiber interior door skins !

The extra nice diffuser was also carbon fiber. One of the detailers saw how much i loved the cars and opened them up for me without me even asking !!

He said they normally won't do that so it was especially cool.

Will post the pics later. Here is a pic David took of me (brown shirt) and mitchell (white shirt/blue hat) just starting to walk thru the show. Too bad you can't see my drool !

I am a big lamborghini freak, so that is where i was hanging out.

Here are some pics of the Gallardo Superleggera.



As i mentioned before the guys at the lamborghini booth recognized my genuine knowledge and intrest in the cars and opened the interior of the superleggera up, something they usually refuse to do.









Central Florida Fiero's Mitchell Bell drooling over his dream car.

It was sporting some HRE rims and a nice body kit !

Me and David (Fierocious GT) discussing ideas for our choptops.



yellow is hot !





Niiiiiice Vette !



The judges were soooooooooo strict ! i watched and listened and they went thru this car with a superfine tooth comb. Totally amazing.



The funny part was the owner had a nice cooler inside, stocked with some ice cold brews,..i was wondering if it was meant to bribe the judges !?
