Nice pics. Anything there other than the obvious new hypercars catch your eye? That Lexus concept looks quite cool and like a mini-LFA.

Would've liked to go again this year but left it too late really so will have to make a bit more of an effort for next year!

Its a shame that in your planning of going to the show you didn't think to take a decent camera

Some nice looking cars there. What is that mental Lambo? Looks rather over the top with too much stuck on tat.

Is that a Mugen spoiler? Highlight of the day!

 

[peterattheboro]

That Lambo is awful.

 

[Outcast]

Nice pix

Surprised you didn't snap the new Civic Tourer though ?

 

[Cosimo]

Nice pics.

There are some videos from the show here and a review two posts down from there.

The 370z Nismo version looks the sex. Not sure about the Juke though, those red mirrors would have to go straight away.

The Golf R cabriolet looks impressive, but you know it's going to be silly money.

Clean the camera lens!

Also, any Fiesta ST pics?

My dad had his SLR so there was no need for us both to be paping it up lol

Indeed it was!

I know yeah, nah they had it there last year, it was in RS blue this year, looked lovely but interior was meh.

 

[Logsi]

Spirit Blue is what they call it now.

Seen a few pictures. Getting 5 star reviews all around at the moment too.

Not sure that Lexus interior has enough buttons..........

 

[Vita]

Is that CRZ in Pirates Black? Or is it just a purple?

Mugen spoiler could be rep off ebay with stickers on the side .

Nice pics.

 

[Lazy]

That Lexus concept looks really nice.
The Lambo, I'm not sure about though. It might just be the angle or lighting but I bet it will be a pain to clean.

 

[ThundyCat]

Is it wrong that I like the Lexus in the last set of photos.

That Lambo is awful.

that lambo is exactly what they should be doing imo.

I like the aventador but lamborghini to me should look totally outrageous and theatrical.

i think its a shame they are making so few.

That golf cab looks stupid. they had a none 'r' variant in the airport this weekend and it defies all logic as to why it would exist.

the wheels on that CRZ look nice nath, bet you had fun on the lexus stand, when you saw they mixed your two favourite things.

hybrids and LFAs.

Honda has updated the sporty CRZ Hybrid with a range of improvements focusing on style and performance. Subtle revisions to the exterior and interior enhance the styling of the car whilst the power of both the petrol engine and electric motor has been increased to 137 PS without comprising fuel economy or increasing exhaust emissions. The car also features a Lithium Ion battery for the first time and a Plus Sport (S+) boost system to help the driver make the best use of this sporty performance. The revised Honda CR-Z will go on sale in January 2013.

The 2013 CR-Z can be identified by a range of styling upgrades that emphasise the coupe's sporty appeal. Style conscious motorists will appreciate the Honda CR-Z's new front bumper design, which frames a revised grille. This is complemented at the rear by a new aerodynamic diffuser design, while striking 17inch alloy wheels fill the wheel arches of the GT model. Two bold new colours, Energetic Yellow and Aurora Violet, further enhance the CR-Z's stylish looks. Honda has updated the hybrid's interior with a new colour scheme, while revisions to the door casings improve cabin storage.

The Honda CR-Z's 1.5-litre petrol engine has been updated with changes to the variable valve timing system and Engine Control Unit (ECU). An anti-vibration knock sensor has been introduced and the material of the crankshaft has been upgraded. The peak power output has been increased from 114 PS to 121 PS.

The electric motor system has also been improved. The change from a Nickel-metal hybrid (Ni-MH) to a Lithium Ion battery has been accompanied by an increase in power from 14 PS (10 kW) to 20 PS (15 kW).

Working in unison, the Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid system now delivers a combined output of 137 PS at 6600 rpm (+13 PS) and 190 Nm of torque (+16 Nm). The 0-62 mph sprint time falls from 9.7 sec to 9.0 sec and top speed is 124 mph. The combined consumption is 56.5 mpg and 116 g/km of CO2.

The lambo looked overdone tbh and didn't actually add anything new other than a fancy body kit.

Mclaren and ferrari were showcasing all new hyrbid and aero tech on brand new platforms and Lambo released a reskinned Aventador.

Impressive but no way comparable to the other two, at least not on a performance level.

The CRZ was in purple, looked amazing under the show lights but in reality is very dark.

I did love the Lexus stand, shame there waas no LFA. I think the new IS looks sharp. Although the GS450H is my fav atm
