LA Auto Show Jan 5-13: What day?

I doubt that someone would fork up $100 donation to the homeless for tickets to a special VIP preview night on
the 4th (6pm-11pm)...kudos to whoever does.

Sooo to the people who will be attending the regular show, open to the public, do you want to meet as a group A-CL event?

This poll will ask which days would be good for you to go.

Location:
Los Angeles Convention Center
1201 South Figueroa Street
Los Angeles, California 90015

Times
Monday thru Friday - 11:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Saturdays - 10:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Sundays - 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.

ADMISSION
Adults: $8.00
Children: 12 and under - free when
accompanied by an adult
Seniors: $5.00 on weekdays (Monday - Friday)

Discount Coupons:
Available in December at participating Chevron stations
and new car dealerships. Valid for $2 off
one regular admission. The coupon is not
valid on Saturdays & Sundays 12-4 PM
(discount is valid all other hours and days).

I vote for Jan 5 @ 10:00am. The discount is in effect and most people should have the day off. I'm flexible though. I can go during the week, but most of you probably can't.

I'll go on the 13th. Somet time they hold back new cars until they have their debut in Detriot. Detriot auto show begins on the 12th.

I am hoping they'll show us the Honda Pilot after it is debuted in Detroit.

"The Pilot will replace the current Passport next spring. It is based on the Acura MDX, but is a bit larger, using the same 3.5 Liter engine. The MDX should move to a 3.8 Liter next year."

"The Pilot comes with a 3rd row of seats. Prices will be announced early next year, but expect it to start in the mid to high twenties, with a loaded model to stay under $35 000."

"The interior will almost be as roomy as some full size SUVs. A leather interior will be an option."

I was actually thinking about doing that with my Dad but turns out I'm going to Nevada to snowboard with my sister from Jan 1st--?.

I'm gonna have to call one of my friends and have them check the board to see the details of the 6 speed CL . I should be back in time to see the show though...

Going to CES in Vegas earlier in the week. Stop by to see a friend in LA, try to go to the auto show, head down to SD to see a few vendor, then back to Kansas. That's my January.

Looks like Jan. 5th will be the day,

It starts at 10am but to get good parking, I'd suggest arriving early...

We are planning to meet in front of the box office/ticket center
and will be trading cell phone # just in case.

I will send out emails...about this shortly
