Looks like I won't be going this year, too much other stuff going on at the moment.

 

[Ameer67]

Alright, I'll be going on Tuesday after school. Just wish we could meet up somehow but not everyone can make it on certain days.

Bummer. I missed it last year so I want to make it up this year.

Had a great time this year at the Auto Show! Great cars too. Some photos:

Audi - purchased by me....no by AmeerGT, on Flickr​

Left: Hyundai set up a GT6 racing booth. I decided to give it a shot. I end up with the 3rd fastest time out of 200 people. The women tells me, "Wow, you did a very good job. How old are you?" "I'm [Insert age less than 18 here]." "If you were 18 or older, you could have gotten a PS4!" "Ohhhhhhh myyyy goood." She decided to give me this little flashlight.
Middle: Walking by the Scion booth, I hear a representative start a little trivia game with the crowd. Who ever gets an answer right earns this cool hat. The question that I got right was, "What does FRS stand for?" "Front engined rear wheel drive sport" Ding ding ding.
Right: And finally, the usual brochure hunting.

If you're talking about the absolute first picture, that's actually a Beetle. Second photo is GT350.
