The press days are over at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, and many wonderful new vehicles have been brought into the world.

More than 50 new cars made appearances at the show, as did some old classics and a few newcomers we've gotten to know over the past year.

For those who couldn't make the show — and those who are gearing up to attend but don't know where to start — we've rounded up the 26 coolest vehicles on display in Los Angeles this year.

From the final Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG to BMW's electric sports car to the Maserati for the masses, here's the best from this year's LA show.

The Macan is a special car for Porsche, representing the brand's first SUV. Maria Sharapova showed up on stage for extra dramatic effect.



Lexus took an already impressive IS 350, then added Brembro brakes, tons of fender flares, a custom suspension, and a custom paint job. The design won a DeviantArt contest, so it's dubbed the DeviantArt IS 350 F Sport.



We were bummed out to find the new WRX doesn't live up to the excitement Subaru built up with an awesome concept a few months ago. But it's still a WRX with a new turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, so we can't complain too much.



On the eve of the show, Jaguar held a party to reveal the F-Type Coupe. Considering how much we loved the convertible, we're very excited for the hardtop version.



Land Rover trotted out the new extended wheelbase version of the Range Rover. In case you need more luxury SUV.



Perhaps our favorite concept car of the past 12 months, Cadillac's Elmiraj was at the show.



It's hard to believe Honda will really have a hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicle ready for the market by 2015, but we won't question the cool futuristic look of its new FCEV concept.



The LA Auto Show isn't all about the future — the Batmobile was on hand.



So was an excellent, elderly Ford Mustang GT350.



Fiat celebrated the past with the "1957 Edition" of its 500.



We're not happy Mercedes-Benz is ending the run of the glorious SLS AMG, but the SLS AMG GT Final Edition will send things off on a high note.



BMW's new 428i convertible comes with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine and will go from 0 to 60 mph in 6.2 seconds. Starting price: $49,675.



Chevy has reintroduced the Colorado, meaning Nissan and Toyota have domestic competition in the midsize pickup market again.



Higher up the price ladder is the Ghibli, Maserati's attempt to open the brand to more buyers. The full-size sedan starts for $65,000.
