Woodward 2008: General Motors Booth Tour Athens Coney Island
Click above for high-res gallery of GM's display on Woodward Ave.
For the past several years General Motors has been using the Athens Coney Island Restaurant on Woodward Ave. as a base of operations for the Dream Cruise. The parking lot this year is again filled with classic, wannabe classic, and future classic GM machinery, much of it brought out from the GM Heritage Center in nearby Sterling Heights. For those who haven't yet seen the new Camaro in production form, the red RS we saw a few weeks ago is on display here in the parking lot along with a ZR1 in police markings and what must be one of the most yellow first generation Camaros anywhere. The powertrain tent at the back of the lot is filled with past present and future powertrains from the Z11 427 to the two-mode hybrid and even a fuel cell stack. The parking lot area is open to the public all day, so come on down. If you can't make it, check the gallery below.

That would be pretty cool seeing a ZR-1 actually being use as a police car.

Very nice cars. I saw those engines on the Hot Rod Power tour, they are very interesting to look at.

Mmmmm, GNX 001. Now that is a nice car. I would imagine its worth more than a brand-spankin'-new ZR-1.
