| - I am surprised no one has ever reviewed this show. It is a new car show, with all the showroom cars from most manufactures. Ferrari, Austin Martin, Lotus, even a Rolls Royce Ghost sat out front of the show.
Once inside you can open doors, check out the interiors of Audi, Mercedes, Chevy, Dodge, Infiniti, Nissan, Ford, Toyota, Fiat, Mini, Scion, Hyundai, Porsche, Range Rover, and so on. So many manufactures were here showing new stuff and what we can expect if we walked into a dealership. Great way to compare several car manufactures under one roof. We sat in a Ford Mustang and sat in a Chevy Camaro and could compare the two within minutes of each other.
The most interesting part of the show is the ride inside a Jeep Wrangler or Jeep Grand Cherokee. 30 degrees does not look like much, but once you are riding inside a Jeep sideways and up and down a slope at the show you will be gripping the handles. The Jeep display allowed everyone to sign up and ride inside the several variations of the Jeep Wrangler. I noted a Jeep Wrangler Limited, Black Ops version, and the Wrangler Rubicon. All very capable of going up and down a 30 degree grade and handling a sideways demonstration of 30 degrees as well. Also note under 12 children need a parent to go with them and must be over 44 inches.
Well if you are in the market for a new car and just started to look this might be a great place to start. It is a good way to get a hands on feel to many new cars out in the market. If you are just into cars this might be a great place to stop at and check out the industry and what is new. It was priced $10 for adults and $6 for children.
I did also note Sunday is family day. Bring your children along for free and only pay your admission. You will have to pay for parking, but I just stick to the garages downtown and get parking validation at one of the many restaurants that surround the area. Make a day of it, car show and some dinner after. Have fun.
