2003 North American International Auto Show


Check out some of the concepts from the 2003 Auto Show in Detroit.

Best in Show was the Cadillac Sixteen:

It is called Sixteen, because it sports a 13.6 liter V-16, that produces 1000 ft-lbs of torque and 1000 hp. It has 24 inch wheels, and no B-pillar. (The pillar that usually separates the front and rear doors.) What is most remarkable is that the massive V-16 is all aluminum and actually weighs less than their standard V-8 in production today.

My favorite was the new Mustang concept:

It sports a supercharged 400 HP 4.6 liter V-8. One look at the front, and you'll immediately recognize the retro 60s grill which will have Mustang enthusiasts (like me) drooling. Unlike the Cadillac, this Mustang is actually slated for production. While the production vehicle will have some differences, the concept is very close to what will be available at the dealerships in about 18 months. (Look for Ravenwood to be in the market for one of these when they finally scrap the ugly post 1998 body style)
