Default 2009 College Park car show - should have come!

I heard a rumor this was a big yearly show, so I decided to go to it. Besides, proceeds were going to a charity (bring a non-perishable canned food, or $1 minimum). It was 93 degrees when I got there, and seeing as how 2 days prior it was in the 60's, I knew a lot of people were going to show up. I was greeted to this:



Many cars simply could not park in the areas you could see, there were so many. Tons were coming and going, so in reality, I'd say at least double the amount in the picture showed up, if not more. Naturally, some poopy cars showed up, but there were PLENTY of exotics there. Sadly, while I went to move my car (I parked in a far away spot thinking they were full - went back to get it to pull in and donate my money), a lot of the exotic crew left. I know on my way in I passed a 430, a newer Lambo and a GT2. Anyway, on to the pictures:









All by herself :





Teh funney:






There was a whole string of amazing IS300's by these guys right next to each other, but there was so many people in front of them I couldn't get a shot of them all

Mach 1 crew zomg. Definitely the best colors, though...:



I only caught this Merkur in passing, but man it was CLEAN! Had to snap this while walking lol:

Amazing airbrushing:




A whole line of GTO's...I only saw one of Jay's color, though! Again, so many people walking around, I couldn't even get them all in a single shot, but it was probably 30 or so down the line.









I don't even know how many big-turbo Supra's I ran into...





This thing was amazingly clean:


There were more newer M3's than you could shake a stick at, so I tried to focus on finding some nicer old ones:

Pity this ones exhaust was retarded, the paint was amazingly good for how old it was:



AAAaaaannnndddd...then my battery died. Sorry .

Well, 2 problems here.

1) I wasn't the only one lol - there was a red one, and he parked in the high-traffic area.

2) I parked in that VERY far lot (in the first pic), considered the "overflow" lot. So, not TOO many saw it, but when they did they immediately stopped and snapped some pictures of it. I was parked in a sea of modded Z33's too lol. It was my first time there, and I didnt realize I could keep going ahead and get into the big lot and park - I figured it was full. Oops!

Oh yeah, I fixed the one jacked link of the red RX-7. LS1's the right way to do one of those
