Walking around that show floor can kill my feet however - standing in one place or moving slow is much harder.

How good is this show? It might be worth going in for. Can you actually sit in the cars? Does it take forever to get into one?
You can sit in some of the cars, with the exception of the concepts. They have contest you can enter, literature, free souvenirs. On the upper level, they have the vendors. They sell wheels, HID kits, etc. I always have a great time when I go. I by my Ibiz car wax every year from the Auto show since they don't sell it in stores.

I have a parking lot hook up that will give us parking for $6.55 all day, just 15 blocks down (good excercise) So who is down?

Here is the info for those that have never gone http://www.autoshowny.com/
I'll be there Sunday and Monday. Come by the Sirius booth and ask for Jerry. I wound up working on Easter and didn't even see it coming. Probably spending too much time on here instead of staring at my calendar.

Damn, that's a good parking rate. I'm taking the train up. I always wind up spending $45-50 a day on parking, while train is $20 round-trip from Hamilton, NJ.

I'll be there this Sunday with my girlfriend, and i will see you there. Yes the parking is a killer in Manahattan. With the exception of the parkinglot I have in store. I usually go more than once anyway since I am hooked on buying the aftermarket products there. If this meet garners some interest, NELOC can roll together next week to the autoshow and make a splash.

Not enough interest for that meet as well. Guys can have two meets in one day, Floyd Bennet is near the Belt and the Autoshow is over at 10pm that day I picked a Saturday in case guys by stuff at the show, and want to return it due to some defect. Sunday the 23 is the last day of the show.
