Scott, will there be another one of these special previews at the NY Auto Show?

TLSTWIN · 01-15-2009, 09:01 PM

Awesome, I was trying to figure out how to get to the one in PA, but didn't want to drive almost 8 hours. I will absolutely go to this one.

Wait, so I have to go to the other site to register?

fastball · 01-15-2009, 09:42 PM

Scott, does this fee also include full access to the rest of the auto show once the rest of it opens at 10:00?

yes.

However..............

If anyone is seen even TRYING to coddle the Mustangs (...they tend to quiver and squeek when a Camaro gets within a mile of them....) I'll have a 'suburban escort' at hand........

TJ91 · 01-15-2009, 10:01 PM

I would love to go to this but im in Toronto, Hey Scott, will there be anything similar to this in Toronto, i would really love to see the Camaro in person, and having special access like this would be an amazing experience.
P.S will you be at CIAS?

OldTimer · 01-15-2009, 10:30 PM

I hope you will shed some light on this for me. Will we be able to see many camaro's in Houston, sit in them, etc.... or do we need to make our plans now for Cleveland.

justmeron · 01-15-2009, 10:34 PM

hey guys this is an awesome opportunity. Will there be anything like this in chicago?

fastball · 01-16-2009, 06:36 AM

I have just registered. I cannot wait for this!

You know Scott, since I live less than 20 minutes from the IX Center perhaps I can take care of the Camaro for you over night, you know, so none of those evil Mustangs try to do something nasty to it when it's sleeping. I can park it in my garage and keep it warm and protected over night, then bring it back to the show every morning on my way to work for the whole week.
