While attending the
LA Auto Show on Thursday, we were alerted to the fact that California's Governor, and alleged cyborg, Arnold Schwarzenegger, would be holding a press conference to discuss California's commitment to clean burning cars and
trucks. AB Green blogger Mike Magda covered
that part of the story for us, but there was a lot more at the show that The Governator wanted to see, and so he followed us into the Convention Center. Just as the
Land Rover debut of the
LR2 ended, Arnold picked up a cookie in the
Jaguar booth (even dismissing joking calls to have his security detachment taste it for him) and started his march around the hall. Follow along as Arnold visits Jaguar,
Honda,
Mercedes and
Maybach before we finally ditched him. Word has it he showed up at the
Spyker display seconds after we left, so we think his intent was quite obvious. All kidding aside, the Governor seemed to like the
Jaguar XJ, M-B CLS, SLR and Maybach Exelero, as well as the Honda Remix, on his trip around the Center. He easily joked with reporters and PR people and appeared to enjoy his whirlwind tour of the show. And the cookie seemed to go over pretty well, too.
