Some auto show observations

There were a lot of "we're greener than them" signs on various cars. Toyota had their Prius up on a rotating display, and the Lexus hybrid had a lot of space around it as well. Aside from a few very odd looking cars like the previously-sold-only-in-Japan Cube from Nissan, most of the regular auto manufacturers were bragging about their efficiency ratings. Kia had a sound booth to show off their new sound system (which didn't impress me at all), and GM had their stage back and announced both their "free maintenance" program for all new cars and bragged about how they spend more on research in Canada than all the other auto manufacturers combined.

I'll just throw up a few thumbnails of the shots I took for now ...
