Doesn't Houston have an auto show? Probably not as big as LA, NYC, or Chi-Town, but still.

Smile Me too!

I can't wait to see the new SL500 R230! That may very well be my replacement selection when the 3 year lease ends on my SLK 32.

This should be one of the bigger auto shows since there's a lot comming out. Hopefully they'll have the E46 M3 CSL on display!!

Mercedes should have a better presentation in LA than the one in the Orange County auto show a couple of months ago. I hope.

In the Orange County one, it looks like a dealership just put a few cars from their showroom, put a few brochures out there and that's it. No fancy presentation or anything. I went through there in a minute and moved on to the next company.

hey mbtech, houston does have an auto show, but it's ridiculous when compared to LA's. You guys have all the newest models and prototypes. Ours is not nearly as big, and they don't bring out everything like they do in LA and Detroit. But since that's all we have, we go anyways.
