I spent the better part of yesterday wandering the halls of the Los Angeles Convention Center at the first Post-COVID era LA Auto Show. It is an interesting time to go to a manufacturers sponsored auto convention because of the events that have shaken the world — starting with shutdowns that put every new vehicle […]
Another year, another awesome LA Auto Show, where faceless OEMs attempt to persuade the motoring press (and the motoring public) to plunk down hard cash their latest offering. But, let me tell you something…I will drink your fabulous mocha-chino, but I won’t spend $600/month on an all inclusive subscription plan…but I’m thinking about it because […]
In the past few weeks I’ve been to SEMA and to the LA Auto Show (more on that in a later post) and it got me thinking about show cars for this week’s Thursday Twister…the quiz with a twist. Find the best ex-SEMA (or other Hot-Rod) show car for sale on the interwebs. Be prepared […]
The 2016 LA Auto Show is in town and we got advanced tickets, so sit down and enjoy DT’s voyage through the halls of the LA Convention Center. Highlights include a life sized tie fighter, Fez from That 70s Show introducing some econobox from Toyota or Honda (I forget) and the other typical things you’d […]
DT’s editor Vince will be at the LA Auto show today checking out the latest vehicle releases –what do you guys want to see? Let us know in the comments. What do you want to see?
The taste of free coffee/Hors d’oeuvre/beer/flash drives is still fresh in my mind, so I’m going to try to give a quick highlight of the LA Auto Show. The press and industry days is a manufacturer funded fun time, where booth babes, Ballast Point IPA, and bratwurst all compete for your attention…just trust your stomach […]
A few of the DT staff are going to be cruising the halls at the LA Auto Show on Wednesday (today), and instagramming pics via @DailyTurismo with the hashtag #LAAutoShow. All kinds of new cars are being released (stuff like a crazy Honda motorcycle/car), but let us know what you want to see, we’ll snap […]
Our resident LA Auto show interloper snapped a few photos with an iphone (posted most of those) and a DSLR – and we figured we’d share the good ones with our readers. Link here. The GAS booth always has some good stuff and we love this vintage Bronco in a pseudo Gulf colors. They also […]
The LA Auto show press days have come and gone, free food has been stuffed in Journalist’s faces, swag given and taken, and soon the LA convention center will be flooded with regular folks who aren’t cheapskates looking for a free lunch and a free ride in exchange for constant positive publicity for every piece […]
The Jaguar F-Type is pretty enough that it may bottom in price at a reasonable level, but for sure the recently announced Jaguar XFRS (not to be confused with Scion FR-S) sedan model will drop to scrap value within a few years after launch and give all manner of cheapskates any opportunity to hoon around […]
