Today, we attended the 2014 Silicon Valley International Auto Show at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, 150 West San Carlos Street, in downtown San Jose.
Alex had lately shown a marked interest in cars, and I wanted to show him all the various brands.
We arrived on Sunday at 10:30am and immediately went to look at the BMW cars nearby.
Some cars were locked (M5, M6), but some were open. We sat in a nice BMW 750iL.
We saw the new electric BMW i3 on display, but I did not like the dashboard or the car's look. Its interior was also Spartan. I can't understand why BMW can't make it look like a 328i. Why make it so substandard?
Inna and I both liked the new Cadillac CTS. It was luxuriously built with fine materials and workmanship.
The 2006 Bugatti Veyron was the most incredible-looking car at the show.
I also really liked the look of the Lamborghini Diablo.
Inna and Alex both liked the interior of the Mercedes-Benz E350.
I also liked (surprisingly) the look of the new VW Beetle Convertible. I may consider it as a serious possibility to replace the Mini Cooper S.
Still, the best car we test-drove last year was the Tesla Model S, and it is still the best sedan.
I was surprised that neither Audi nor Porsche was at this show. I also did not see any Ferrari models.
I would like to check out the new Porsche Boxster.

Have to agree with, Adison. Looks like you really had a fun time looking around at the model cars, Boris. One look at that Bugatti and I already started day dreaming, hehe! They say that the car chooses its owner. So far I've been an owner of a Subaru and it's a great and wonderful car. Thanks for sharing!
