Although Detroit is considered to be the most depressing city in the U.S. only after Buffalo, the annual Detroit Auto Show held in the city this year was anything other than depressing. There was a lot of interesting metal at the show with several companies coming forward to display their concept/production cars. Here are five of the exhibits that stole the limelight at the show.

The car weighs roughly around 2874 lbs and has a six-speed manual transmission option to rout power to the rear wheels.
