They stole my (well Subaru's LGT) wheel design.... I STILL and never will like the new taillights... BLECH... I wanna know what the "aftermarket" is going to do about stereo replacement... I know on some of the newer Subaru's that are all integrated it's like a 300-500$ custom job to work around the integration..

The Vibe has 5 spoke and the Subie has 6. Although they are pretty similar...The only thing I really want to see at the Autoshow is the ZR1 and the new Vibe. It's just so darn cold though. I hate making trips in this weather.

Are wheels always designed by the manufacturer? Or is that an outsourced thing? Maybe it varies, just curious cause I've seen other wheel designs that look similar to other cars.

The Denver Auto Show is in March so hopefully all the same cars will be here. So I can see them up close and personal.

Dang! I actually wanted to see that car too. And the new CTS-V. Maybe I can convince my friends to go their instead of the Shedd Aquarium.

Hopefully they'll have SOME of the same cars (from past experience, the Milwaukee auto show doesn't have a fraction of what Chicago has).
