Default Anyone going to the Autoshow?

I got a coupon from CAA. $5 off admission. I haven't been there since I was a kid so I figure I might as well go this year. Always fun to see and touch fancy cars.

Does anyone know what Porsche is displaying there this year?

Sucked last year...I am skipping it. Same old every year.

I think I will head down to the Detroit show.....never been. But I heard it is night and day.

The Toronto show usually sucks, we don't get all the new concepts and manufacturers skimp out on it compared to the show in Detroit.
The Porsche spot in crawling with 5 year olds and people crawling in and out of the display Cayenne
Not worth it. They didn't even have the GT last year and I doubt they will have one this year.
I don't much care about it now anyways because I have seen it many times without the crowds.

I will go simply because my 4 1/2 year old is as big a car fan as I am and he was thrilled to pieces last year (yeah, that was my [then] 3 1/2 year old crawling around the 911s and Boxsters :-) Didn't bother trying to get into the display Cayenne...)

There are usually some nice vintage cars. Last year there was a beautiful McLaren M8.

The new cabrios were shown in Detroit, so maybe they'll make an appearance in T.O.? Anyone know?
