It has already been a successful couple days at the 2009 Los Angeles Auto Show thanks to the new car releases, concepts, and show car girls. Turning a majority of the heads at these car shows are the exotic car babes posted up next to the latest fancy car. Every time there is a new auto show about to start, photographers get ready to take tons of pictures of the car girls since they draw the most attention to the show. It’s too bad we haven’t been able to attend the Los Angeles Auto Show yet, but several people managed to get these great photos. If you enjoyed this installment of the car girls, then be sure to check out the full section of sexy car babes.

Here we have an extreme tuning enthusiasts from the former Soviet Bloc country, supposedly Kazakhstan, that transformed his car to look like a Rolls Royce. We were wondering what car was underneath, if it was possibly a Bently, or Maybach since those are the only cars that come to mind large enough for the transformation. However, if it were either of those two cars, the owner probably wouldn’t need to make a fake Rolls Royce, and could just buy a real one. After close examination, this is a Mercedes E-Class under all the body work, and you can tell from the interior seating, and how the exterior is not as long as a typical Rolls Royce.

The German tuning firm VATH unveiled their latest tuning kit for the Mercedes CL65 AMG with performance and styling upgrades. Starting out with the exterior is a new aerodynamic body kit. Included in the kit is a carbon fiber front lip, rear skirts, new carbon fiber rear diffuser, trunk lip, and roof spoilers. The performance upgrades under the hood were accomplished from tuning the ECU, new intake, cooling system, and additional boost. A high performance exhaust system with larger pipes and high grade steel catalytic converters was installed underneath. Power numbers after the tuning was completed show 745 hp and an amazing 1,150 Nm of torque.

Here we have the fastest Opel built by the tuning company Steinmetz, the street legal Opel Insignia Sports Tourer OPC. Setting a new top speed record of 287.4 km/h, the new Opel Insignia accomplished this staggering number in October during a test run at the Nardo ring in Italy. The track in Italy allows the driver to reach the cars maximum speed, without ever having to turn the wheels, thanks to its large 12 kilometer oval circuit. Tuning the performance outside the engine bay, Steinmetz installed a custom aerodynamic kit that included new front and rear spoilers, side skirts, and a new front grille. The Opel Insignia also received a sport suspension kit, along with 20-inch lightweight alloy wheels, and a few extra chrome features for the exterior.

The tuning company Amuse from Japan recently unveiled a new body kit for the Nissan 370Z called the Vestito, Italian for dress or suit. Upgrades include a new front bumper with carbon fiber integrated on the sides, front lip, side skirts, stretched fenders, and a new rear bumper with a large wing above. The whole kit features simple, yet clean lines that transform the Nissan 370Z to an even more aggressive looking sports car. Customers can choose any wheel package they’d like, but shown here are BBS LM-R wheels wrapped in high performance tires.
