in #cars7 years ago

North American International Auto Show is held every year in Detroit during the month of January. This week is the Industry Preview for people involved in the automotive industry. So, here are exclusive coverage of some vehicles I liked for Steemit! Since I took ALOT of pictures, they will be shared in multiple posts. This post will be for the sport cars and sport sedans.
北米国際オートショーは毎年デトロイトで1月に行われる自動車展示会です。今週は自動車産業関係者用へのプレビューです。私が面白いと思った車について投稿します。たくさん写真を撮りましたので複数の投稿に分けてシェアします。この投稿はスポーツカー・スポーツセダンとなります。

These i8s have a 3 cylinder gasoline engine only making 228hp but, it does 0-60in 4.4sec due to it's Hybrid motor.

Can't get more 'murica than this! 808hp and 717ft-lbs of torque straight from the factory. 0-60 in 2.3 seconds and 1/4mile in 9.65 seconds. It comes with slick tires too.

The red Vette is the Grand Sport model pushing 460hp and it has a 7 speed manual trans. Yes, it's not a typo, it's got a 7 speed manual! The grey one is non production but look at the size of that brake rotor!

This would be my favorite sedan if it came in manual! Sadly, no manual trans option in the US. Look at all that carbon fiber!

I don't know what this is. It was sitting by itself. Interesting car though and looks like it's got a big engine.

Didn't Fisker go out of business? I hear horror stories with the reliability of these cars but I still like the styling.

Thats it for today! Tomorrow, I will post the Trucks and SUV edition so stay tuned!
今日はこれだけとなります!トラックとSUVの写真を明日投稿しますのでフォーローしてください!

Those BMW's were my favorite ones and I don't even really care about cars haha.
Looks like you had fun, also we could all go eat food together!

フォローさせていただきます。

フォローありがとうございます!
トラックとSUV版をアップしましたので、そちらもお願いします。(^^)

thanks for sharing! It would be so nice to discuss those beasts in more detail, but photos look nice too! With manual Demon clutch wouldn't hold and you wouldn't be in time to change gear :D for my european eye some of the models seem to be dated now, but I really like to see community around cars growing!

Nice coverage of the event!

The NSX's take the win for sure though!

Nice photographs of beautiful cars...thanks for sharing @chronogn

Woooooah! What an amazing selection of cars! I love the Maseratti the most but I'd swap a testicle for a few of them.
