Auto Show In L.A.

Having the LA Auto Show pushed forward two months makes it more distinct from Detroit and allows for a greater number of debuts. Thus, the second LA Show of 2006 was better than the first.

Today, a slew of regular production models were released, but all our attention is focused on the intriguing Mazda Nagare Concept. With gills, flowing headlights and a sleek greenhouse, the Nagare might just be the design of the year.

Also of interest is the Callaway’s C16 Corvette package which takes a standard C6 and converts it into something that rivals the Z06. With a fat bodykit and distinct front nose, the C16 is one of the more thoroughly tuned Corvettes.
