New York Auto Show: Day One concludes, here's the goods
With our cadre of writers recovering from the day's events, we thought we'd give you the opportunity to look over what we've covered so far and what we're looking forward to tomorrow.
We were impressed with Chevy's trio of compact concepts, in the form of the Beat, the Groove and the Trax (DJ references anyone?). Ford took the wraps off its Flex CUV, along with the Foose Edition F150 and Shelby Mustang GT500KR, while Honda's S2000 Club Racer made a quiet appearance.
We were particularly smitten by Hyundai's Genesis concept, plus Infiniti's G37 coupe and EX concept. As always, Mercedes brought out their power players, the CLK63 Black Series and CL65 AMG, making us wish that our pay was commensurate with our tastes.
There's more fun to be had in about 13 hours, so bookmark this page now and follow along as day two unfolds.

What a waste of an auto show. 14 SUVs, a hideous new Impreza, and some riced-out, last-gen throwaways from Honda and Nissan. Yeah, way to go important world automaker people. The only showing worth reporting on was the one from Mercedes.

#2: I'm geographically challenged, as in I'm in Detroit and didn't make plans to travel to New York.
I'm way too buried with work on the site right now as it is. The first quarter is over, the responses are pouring in--in the first day 25% of those surveyed have already responded--and I've got to start working on cleaning the data so the results will be available in early May. It's going to be a busy month, too busy for the party in NYC.
