2003 Detroit Auto Show

2FastLX · 01-03-2003, 03:31 AM

Who's going? Anyone want to go? I've never been to one and have been dying to check it out. Would it be worth the trip up from central Indiana?

Hey, Kevin it is up to you, but there will also be on in Chicago next month. That's a lot closer.I went to that one a few years ago and had a great time. Sounds like Ford is going to be going all out at them this year! OH YEAH!!!

I've been to the Houston Auto Show every year since God was wearing diapers, and it blows harder and harder every year. They ddn't even have a Cobra last year and that is the only reason I went. You would figure with a city the size of Houston, they could at least have a decent auto show. Oh well, there's always this year for them to try to redeem themselves.

Come on out... I have lots of room.. an extra bedroom, 2 couches... (just have to share the bed with my kitty cat) It's really neat to go too.

I don't know if it would be a safe bet to let all these leg humpers into your house..lol Half of them can't control themselves on the board. lol

I really want to go to the Detriot Autoshow, my friend and I were discusing it the other night. Arn't they officially revealing the Ford GT (GT40) there or something alone those lines. I plan on going to the Toronto Autoshow which isn't to bad I guess, it's in February I believe. I'll have to look into that I guess. It's usually nothing to special really. But I pretty much go to every car show with an hour and a half drive of me.
