The most talked about cars at the 2012 North American International Auto Show held in Detroit, MI this past week were fine examples of American manufacturing (even though the European influence and in the case of the 2013 Dodge Dart, actual architecture, was readily apparent). But there was a lot to love on the more exotic end of the spectrum including the new Cadillac ATS, the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, the lime green Hot Wheels Camaro, the cool new Chevy Code130R concept, Lexus’ LF-LC concept, Daimler’s weird little mini-pickup, a host of Bentleys and Acuras, and the new Mini Roadster which looks perfect for a Rally race against the Fiat 500. We’ll sign up for that now if you don’t mind.
