The great thing about New York is its contrasts. Friend of Jalopnik Bradley Price of Automobiliac spotted this $290,461 Aston Martin DBS Volante just across the street from Occupy Wall Street in Union Square.

The buzz on the LA Auto Show floor this morning isn't about 650 HP Mustangs or smokin' booth babes. It's about the Occupy protests. Word is, they're marching toward the LA Convention Center, so out-of-town journalists and PR people are fleeing for the airport, fearing they'll be trapped if they wait too long.
