If ever there were a driving community, its Los Angeles. Which is why the 2018 LA Auto Show – aka Automobility LA – is one of the most important shows for automakers. Currently running from November 30 to December 9 at the Los Angeles Convention Center, this show will not disappoint.

From out of this world concept cars, to debuts of autos ready to hit the market to those in in production, ‘LLERO has always covered all the hottest whips at the show. 2018 is no different. Here are seven must see rides at this year’s show.

Mercedes 2020 AMG GT Pro

Mercedes Benz debuted the latest version of its AGM GT, the AGM GT Pro. The model at the show is a nice mix of understatement, e.g. matte grey paint, and flash, in the form of neon accents (a nod to LA??). Under the hood, the AMG GT R PRO is modified in numerous ways to deliver even more racetrack performance: The lightweight construction, new suspension and aerodynamic fine-tuning. Lightweight-design wheels also contribute to the enhanced driving dynamics and faster lap times on the racetrack or the street – we’re not telling.
