LA Auto Show
with the auto show coming to an end this weekend, just wondering what was the most impressive thing anyone saw out there. For me, it was going to see the renntech trailer and visiting the brabus booth and getting to sit in the new full brabus sl and g wagon.

Brabus actually let you inside the ropes? On Monday afternoon, they were real snobs, telling everyone that only guests with an appointment could get in.

Brabus G500???
What are the modifications did the Brabus do to the G500 model that you sat in??? I have few items that I would like to get for my G500 from Brabus. Just curious.
Thanks

The brabus g-wagon we sat in was the fully upgraded one from their showroom. it had every nook and cranny from the rims to the fully customized mastik leather interior. they are snobbs, but i've personally brought them so many customers, andreas is pretty cool to me.

Snobs, appointments - listen to this one! A few years back I was in NYC and decided to visit the Ferrari dealer. All the cars in the showroom were locked. After milling about for a considerable time, I sought out a salesperson and asked him to unlock the door so I could better see the interior. I was told that they could not let me in the car because people that bought Ferrari's wanted them as pristine as possible. I had choice words for the salesman and left. Did I not smell rich enough? You can bet that if I ever wanted a Ferrari, I would not consider that dealership.
BTW, the case was not the same when I visited the Ferrari dealer in Sausilito (sp?).

The LA auto show is full of snobs. Brabus treats everyone like *****, CEC is even worse, and the Bentley people are just plain annoying. I've seen them let thugs who I know can't afford the cars behind the ropes to look, but they wouldn't do ***** for me.
I just ate and drank on MB's dime the whole time

You guys know about the MB VIP area, right? Too late, if not, because the show ended today....

ya, i knew about it but was only at the show for a few hours. i didnt have enough time to sit back there. i did like the mb exhibit though. just sad that i didnt get to see their g wagon up close. but you guys are all correct, brabus is a bunch of freakin snobbs, if they didnt know me, they wouldnt let me 50yards near their booth. maybe next time, i should try to take something off one of their cars...
