    It gets more disappointing every year. I'd suggest to anyone thinking about going...save your $10 and get something to eat instead.

    I thought the displays were better this year. They have a nice set up for BIR and the dream garage right in the center. I enjoyed it except they were sold out of the waffle ice cream cones.

    Cars that I want to see and sit in... any of these there from what you remember?

    Lotus exige s260, Maserati granturismo s, turbo Porsche (911 or panamera), Porsche boxter spyder, Mustang Boss 302, Lexus 200h, BMW 335i xdrive coupe, BMW 1M, Audi rs4, Audi R8.

    I heard Abarth, Fiat, and the crz were there. That might sway me to go... if I find free tix lol

    The main room is not filled this year. As you enter, to the left end, there is a false "wall" which in effect reduces the room to about 75% of its full size. Buy and print your ticket at their web site and save $2 off full admission.

    no on the lotus, tehre is a evora and dont think you can sit in it, cant sit in the one maserati, there is a carrera s, there is a bocter spyder, panamera both turbo and non, only can sit in the non. the ugly boss is there, 200h is there not as cool as the one last year new rs4 is there to sit in, and r8 spyder cant sit in. i didnt see that abarth but i did see the 500 (including a old one) and as for the BMW i really didnt look hard at any of them other then the 1 series cuz some guy was asking me tons of questions about it like i worked for bmw or soemthing and some weird 5 series GT, if you look at that one open the trunk and tell me what that is all about?
