2004 Los Angeles Auto Show

We visited the 2004 Los Angeles Auto Show on January 2, 2004 and found hundreds of wonderful cars on display, and thousands of people vying with us for a chance to see them.  The displays of the most popular brands, such as BMW and Mercedes were swamped with people, but there were still a great many cars to look at and enjoy in relative peace.

We saw several new cars such as the Volvo S40 and Chevrolet Cobalt, some exciting concept cars, and so many other current production cars that it is difficult to remember them all.  Fortunately, there are photographs to help jog the memory.

Below are a few of the pictures we took at the show.
