Default My GTS! @ NY Intl Auto Show

Anyone going to the NY International Auto show? Officially opens this weekend.
If you do, make sure to check out the Supercars Garage booth (#1420) on main level. My GTS, along with a few other cars, will be on display and undergoing "transformations" during the next week. Matt Clark of MC Designs invited several P-car owners to put their cars on display at the show while he performs various vinyl wrapping demonstrations using 3M products (shout out to 3M for providing the materials!!). I have no idea what design is going onto my car -- I've given Matt the idea that I am open to wherever his creative flow takes him - but first up was using my car as a bit of a "color wheel" for the various 3M wraps (see pic below). I won't get back to see my car until late next week, so it is very exciting. I'll share more as I get pics and videos!
I drove my GTS up Tuesday morning (along with John from Fabspeed in his Cayman R!) and dropped our cars off at the Javits Center! Blast driving-up, and actually got to drive our cars out onto the floor at Javits! I did take some video of the drive up, so watch my YT Channel GTSilver for uploads in the next few days. And again, HUGE shout-out to John (Fabspeed) for hooking me up with Matt!!

Here's a couple of pics (sorry for the crummy iPhone pics...):
After parking at the booth - entire center is being transformed for the show...
And here is my car later in the day after some of the color samples were applied...

Oh no way!! I would love to catch-up with you!! Unfortunately I am not there! Currently out in Scottsdale AZ for a week of RR while my car is getting its "makeover" at the show. I actually have no idea what Matt and his crew are doing to my baby... LOL. I won't get there until late next week to drive it home after the show ends. I've only seen a few pictures so far, so please take some while you are there!
Enjoy the show!
