Well I finally put the photos up of the car show, almost a month late lol.

The attention draw for green cars was the Infiniti M hybrid
Panamera Hybrid
and the Ford Focus EV
Nothing spectacular/unseen from any car co. The Prius V was there and no one batted an eye or paused for a second.
Notice the lack of large crowd and the presenter looked rather bored.
Lexus had one concept car. There was a concept LF-GH (I think that was the name) but it looked like melted plastic that has cooled and hardened.
Acura has nothing at all green and was absolutely the same stuff as every year... Yawn
I did get to ride in a iMIEV, Volt and LEAF. The Volt and Leaf were nice rides, very quick at the low end. it was an indoor track, so we coudn't hit 50, but the woman driving the Volt came close and she got scolded by the fire Marshall to slow down.
The volt and the Leaf have the same passenger space except for the middle seat missing in the volt. The Leaf of course wins in head room, but everything else is optical illusion (light interior, dashboard set back, no center console, large windows makes the leaf seem larger than it is.)
I'm sorry to put this so bluntly, but the iMiev is a piece of garbage, not fit to be called an EV suitable for the highway. I've seen NEVs with better quality. Tons of squeaking from the dash and other places in the "car". Keep in mind that I was on an indoor track, I can only imagine what would happen when you hit a pot hole. The cheapest material you can find are in the iMIEV. There is no point when the LEAF (and the Focus EV) is(/are) the same (rumored) price and is well built.
