If you had the chance to attend the 2025 Michigan International Auto Show at DeVos Place from January 30th to February 2nd, you were treated to some jaw-dropping cars. Maybe you were checking out the latest high-tech sedans, tough-as-nails trucks, or sporty hybrids. One thing I can say for sure is that there was something to catch everyone’s eye. But let’s be honest: there were a few cars that really stood out, especially for those of us who can’t get enough of classic muscle and performance.
These are the rides that had people talking, and for good reason. Let’s take a closer look at some of the big names and standout models that really stole the spotlight.
Chevrolet's: Classic Power, Modern Performance
Chevrolet definitely brought some serious muscle to the 2025 Michigan International Auto Show, showcasing models that managed to steal the spotlight.
2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT
The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado EV LT was definitely standout at the show, especially for those interesting in the future of pickup trucks. This all-electric truck combines the utility and toughness of the Silverado with the benefits of electric power. The Silverado EV LT offers impressive torque and towing capabilities. It has a sleek design, advanced tech features, and a sustainable powertrain, which makes it really clear that Chevrolet is aiming to redefine what a full-size truck can be in the electric age.
Chevrolet Corvette Z06
Then, of course, there was the 2025 Corvette Z06. If the Stingray is a showstopper, the Z06 takes it to a whole new level. This car doesn’t just look the part—it really performs. It has a hand-built 5.5-liter LT6 V8 engine, so it is built for serious speed and precision handling. And the Z06 is engineered for the track but street-friendly enough for a cruise. If you were at the show, you probably noticed just how many people couldn’t get enough of it. This car demands attention.
Ford: Power, Performance, and Innovation
Ford knows how to blend tradition with cutting-edge innovation, and this year’s show really showed that off.
2025 Ford Mustang 60 Years Edition
The 2025 Ford Mustang 60 Years Edition definitely had a presence at the show, and for good reason. This special edition pays tribute to the Mustang’s legendary legacy, through its blend of classic design elements with modern performance. With that iconic Mustang grille and aggressive stance, it captures the muscle car spirit that’s made this car so beloved for decades. Under the hood, it packs serious power, staying true to the Mustang’s reputation for performance.
2024 Ford Bronco Custom Edition
I have to say, the 2024 Ford Bronco Custom Edition was another standout. It continues to capture the essence of what the Bronco brand is all about with its rugged design and impressive off-road capabilities. This custom version takes things up a notch with tailored details and enhancements, giving it a more personalized, tough-as-nails appeal. This is a vehicle that can handle whatever terrain you throw at it, and this custom model shows just how much potential there is for personalization.
Dodge: The King of Muscle
Dodge brings the power, and their cars definitely made an impression at this year’s show.
2023 Dodge Challenger Custom by Gas Pedal Customs
The customized 2023 Dodge Challenger by Gas Pedal Customs at the show perfectly showcased style and performance. Gas Pedal Customs is known for taking an already impressive car like the Challenger and adding their own unique touches. This particular model featured custom paintwork, an upgraded exhaust system, and some performance tweaks that made it stand out even more. And aside from looks, the custom mods enhance the car's power and handling, making it a true driver’s machine. This Challenger was definitely a car to take note of.
