Greg and I took off this morning to the opening day of Barrett Jackson in Scottsdale, AZ. It was family day, which meant no auctions were taking place and there were kids, EVERYWHERE. I'm all for exposing your kids to the car scene early, but if they do not understand the concept of "Do Not Touch", or "Put That Stick Down", they do NOT need to be at a classic car show. Anyway, here are my favorites, there will be a link to the full photobucket album at the end. Some of them I have details on, others I don't. Feel free to educate me because there is a LOT of stuff about the classics that I do not know.
Enjoy!

GT-R. The only Nissan I saw.

Durability. That's the only reason you would do that. Never have to worry about scratches!

[Frank E Bones]

Looks like Ill have to wait till June to attend one of these

The Bugati.......

All I see is a nice Mustang Fastback I would definitely take that Mustang over the Bugati.

Oh, and what the hell was this doing there?

I wasn't terrible impressed with the Bugati either but the impressive part is in the engine bay. 1001 hp.

The '03 Sunfire was a Custom Concept Car for someone in a band, I don't remember the whole story. It was honestly gonna be part of my "Fail" list.

Oh, and what the hell was this doing there?

"May I have your attention please? May I have your attention please. Would the owner of a schoolbus yellow Pontiac Sunfire with offroad suspension and an aero kit please move your vehicle? It's not blocking anything, but it's so f*cking ugly it's driving down the price of all the surrounding cars."

Barett Jackson is staying in palm beach for three months? oh snapp

[Amays U G37S]

Bugati is supposedly 6 mil to build, and only sells for 2 mil.

The orange Beetle with the decals looks like an ol' Empi VW. It's been a long time since I've seen one.
