My toddler and I braved a snowstorm to go to the opening night of the auto show. Sadly, fewer and fewer manufacturers present, but the Porsche Club chapter and the Corvette Club chapter helped fill the room.
Highlights? Subaru brought dogs that need homes, there was a beautiful Ferrari 330 GT, Acura brought an NSX (but would not let us sit in it), Toyota brought a Supra (but would not let us sit in it), Lexus brought the LC (and let us sit in it!), Alfa Romeo had a race stimulation for a Stelvio Quadrifoglio, Chevrolet brought a C8-which is really perfect, and Porsche Club of St. Louis had a beautiful 1978 SC.
Disappointments? No cars from BMW, Porsche, Audi, Land Rover, Mercedes Benz, Cadillac, or Jaguar. Ford did not bring the new electric Mustang (but per their booth, it will be in Chicago & Kansas City.) And Alfa forgot to bring the 4C. The representative told me it is because they only sold 200 in North America.
Sheesh.
