Thumbs up anybody going to the 2010 NAIAS?

I'm giving it serious thought....I can fly up there for free and tix are only $12.

http://www.naias.com/the-2010-show/overview.aspx

Anyone have any inside info???? Any clue on the best days to go? I know Jan 18th is MLK day, so probably not a good day to go (too crowded).

Saturday, January 16 - Saturday, January 23, 2010

9 a.m. - 10 p.m. (no admittance after 9 p.m.)

Sunday, January 24, 2010
9 a.m. - 7 p.m. (no admittance after 6 p.m.)

Iv gone twice before to detroit and specifically to see the new LS premiere there and the LFA-II, ISF premiere, and i live in houston as well.

I have only one reason thats compelling me to go - the XTS and judging from the teaser it appears to look incredible. Some jalopnik bloggers claim to have seen the concept already saying it is absolutely beautiful.

I wish lexus would debut a premiere even if it unannounced...thats how the LFA concept roadster premiered. There was no announcement nor was it known by anyone until the day.

Id like to see the next GS premiere...wishful thinking says chicago or NY this year, even as a concept would be great! Its been about 6 years already since the world premiere of the 3GS...bring it out baby!!!

The next new Lexus to come down the pike will (likely) be the GS-F, if they ever get a green light to go ahead with it....that prospect seems to be up and down lately. They also need to seriously consider an AWD IS350, if the AWD hardware will fit in it as is.

Lexus has given us a product onslaught of concepts and production cars the past 6/7 years...I expect this year to be slow outside the GX and LF-Ch and LFA

I have a feeling that a new model/concept will emerge as a surprise much like the LFA roadster concept.
