At the Art of Motion exhibit, I recognized a couple cars from Katie's:

So, while there were many no-shows, there was someone new to the show: Tesla. I was surprised to see Cybertruck. Long line to check it out. Only two in the area, with this one at the show, and the other at Montgomery Mall. According to the sales rep I spoke with, there have been 7,000,000 orders already, which I'm assuming is worldwide. Deliveries in this area are about a year out. The rep did not know the order number for this area. It's pretty massive in person. Though, about the size that one would expect after looking at photos. I sat in it (pretty simple layout, like with most electrics) and did a full walk-around, checked it out. I kinda like it for what it is, but I've no desire to get one.

I was there yesterday afternoon! My first time there. It's typically been the awkward middle child of major US car shows, with Detroit, NY, and LA taking precedence generally. So I'm not surprised it was a bit of a meager showing from some of the major players. But the interesting local dealerships made a decent showing, with a nice collection of Ferraris, plus a few McLarens, Astons, and a Countach and Chiron. I had a decent afternoon taking pictures.
I was also disappointed to not see any Lotuses (Loti?). But with some of the local car clubs representing themselves, I was wondering how hard it would be to get NOVA Lotus set up in there sometime...

Glad you went! The show used to be so packed that the Art of Motion (exotics and art cars) had their own room. This year, there was so much floor space, everything was so spread out that, taking a look at your photos, Alan, I see that I completely missed the Chiron! It looks like it was behind the Aston display? It looks different than the one on display last year. Did they have the window sticker for it like they did for the one last year?
That was an interesting color for the Countach. I had never seen one that color. It looked good.
Last year, there was an Exige, which I believe belonged to a NoVA Lotus member.
Nice shots, as always, Alan.

The Chiron was next to the Rolls display, across the aisle from the McLarens & Bentleys. There were a few details on it I'd have liked to get better photos of!
