2016 Chi-Town Auto Show... Ford Performance pics

[BmacIL]

I didn't realize the GT has 245 width fronts and 325 rears. That's a heck of a stagger!

Great photos. Thanks!
Wow,.....talk about some great looking and great performing vehicles!!! All of the new Ford cars/trucks were hot and very performance oriented.
That Raptor is gorgeous! I was planning on buying the new Raptor next year, but didn't want to wait another year or so before they came out. Very nice.

Very nice pics . . lots of fun stuff to see.
Did you happen to stop by the Chicagoland Mustang Club booth?
My Mach 1, a 2001 Bullit and a very nice 1993 Cobra on display.

Nice pics! I've gone almost every year since I was a kid. Might skip this year though, I got what I wanted. Now I just need spring to arrive.

Glad to be back in warmer FL... it was waaaay too cold in Chicago last week.

Although before flying out, I was able to squeeze a visit to the first open to public day at McCormick Place on Saturday.

Lots of cool cars but first here are the hot new Ford Performance vehicles!

Johnny 5 is ALIVE!!

Pretty sure my Race Red GT350 is going to end up with the wheels from the GT on it.

Just wow.

If you're local, in town for a visit, or not too far away for a road trip... it's worth a visit to spend the whole day there.
This was my second time to see the Chicago Auto Show (first was in 2013) and I still enjoy going again... the nation's largest after all.

"Nation's Largest" is kind of a moot point for the Chicago Auto Show. Yes, they have the most floor space of the major US shows, but Detroit will always be the most significant show with the most world and North American debuts. I went to the Chicago Auto Show last year and it was pretty apparent that it's a show paid for by the local dealers, not the automakers themselves. Detroit just feels like a bigger deal from every automaker, whereas half the cars at Chicago were trucked in from a dealership.

As expensive as carbon fiber GT350R wheels are, I'm sure GT wheels will be even more.

That GT is just so bad ass. I want to see one in real life.

Well I haven't had the chance to attend the NAIAS at Detroit yet but I hear you... in any case, the Chicago show was still nice for me to attend to since I am not local in that part of the nation. It's definitely much better than what I normally see in south FL.

No beef for me.... I just always enjoy to see what they have at McCormick Place.
