LA Show 2007: Faces in the crowd
What would an auto show be without all those lovely models? Although they weren't deployed as numerously as at some other recent shows (Frankfurt, Tokyo and SEMA come to mind) Los Angeles had its fair share of pretty faces representing the various manufacturers. It also had a few celebrities floating around to make you know you were close to Hollywood. Former NBAer John Salley, racer Derek Bell, "The Transporter" himself, Jason Statham, architect Frank Gehry, and California's own Governator made it into our files this year. Aside from the ones in our gallery there were several others who proved too elusive even for our shutterbug corps, which included occasional helper Las de Alwis as well as several AB and ABG regulars. We'll just have to try harder next time.Click image at right for high-res gallery of some of the beautiful people from Los Angeles.

Who is the woman in the main picture? Just a model? Looks familiar.

Shades of actress Marissa Tomei, but not her exactly.
Some nice looking women in that set, and evidently the obligatory celebrity worship...
the Trident-branded dresses are a bit specific, but not distasteful. Other autoshows are much more blatant and less classy.

That's one of the Maserati models, although she does look like that gal in the Sopranos, Jamie-Lynn Sigler.

I saw Governor Schwarzenegger there on Saturday between the Austin Martin and Ferarri booths. I was less than 5 feet from the man and nearly didn't recognize him.

It would be nice if Autoblog actually bothered to put captions on photos. There's more than a few galleries where I have no idea what I am looking at.
