You might be thinking, why is she posting in the lounge when we have a forum dedicated to car show events?

You might even be thinking, who is this girl?

You might even be thinking, Hey, Liz came out of lurk mode!

All I'm thinking is that I would post in the lounge because it would reach more people. If I've missed another thread about the New York Auto show, I apologize, and I'll lock this one.

My question is, who's going, and when? I work in the city, folks, and not far from the Javits, so I might be able to meet up.

Rarely. I just needed to get in touch with someone so I got back on here a few weeks ago. Otherwise, I lurk here and here.

Can't make it to the show this year, but glad to see some of the old-timers posting up. Makes me nostalgic. Hope you lurking veterans are doing well. :)

Liz, I was planning on taking Jack up sometime during the day on Thursday the 28th. Not sure exactly what time though.

Not that this forum would be bias or anything, but is there anything that I should absolutely see this year?

This is almost like a re-union thread..

Lots of stuff, but nothing exciting. New SRT8 Jeep and 300, Fist 500 Cabrio, new Beetle, a host of revised cars with new faces, and some concept cars.

I thought there was some cool stuff there. I liked drooling over the exotics, including a veyron, and lots of cool race cars there. All the new launches were nice as well.

bring the girlfriend thursday. whats a good place to eat around javits center? we would be taking the train so something close to penn station would be even better

^ if you can't find a place to eat in NYC, I have no hope in the future of mankind. Just get on your phone, it will have 100's of places.

I'll post up my impressions of the show later, maybe some pics.

Depends on what kind of food you want, I can suggest.

This.

Your gf will like Ninja NY, unless she hates Japanese food. The restaurant is styled after a Ninja dungeon and everything is themed after it. I haven't met a woman who hated the place, yet. You will have to take a cab down town though. Nobu next door is also nice (also doesn't require a month in advance reservations unlike Nobu..).

i dont want to spend 60 bucks on dinner, thats breaking the bank. ps we are 18 so we cant drink. we've been to jons by time square and liked it but we like trying new places

Tsar
04-27-2011, 05:43 AM
Less than 60 bucks for two (including tip), in Manhattan? :lol: Um... Perhaps Bonzo has ideas.

get a snack there and go somewhere nice when you get home? your 60 bucks would most likely go a LOT further in your area than in nyc

In NYC? That will barely pay my bar bill. Street vendors FTW!

04-27-2011, 08:48 AM
obviously 60 isnt the be all end all i do have more money than that. like i said we cant drink so drink bills are irrelevant. and the 60 that came up in my head wasnt including a tip. maybe we will just go back to the same place we went last time

Look around on Yelp and Timeout NY for good cheap eats. They exist. Pay the coin for a taxi, and get something unique instead of fancy. I've had good eats in Manhattan on the cheap before, a place called S'mac comes to mind. If you have a car there, drive out to BK and get some grub in Williamsburg or Park Slope. It's much cheaper, and they have some interesting stuff. If its nice, take a stroll.

I'm in grad school with barely any income, and I live in Queens for now. I used to go out often and rarely spent more than $20 on a meal. Drinks on the other hand is another story.

Just my rebel xti with a couple quick lenses. Some shots have an external flash as well but most don't. I also shot wide open for the most part and varied the ISO to compensate for some darker areas. There is a good amount of lighting on most of the cars though.

Yeah, there is a diner on 11th and...err..40th maybe? 10 min walk tops from Javitz. Food is good, and aint bad price wise.
