Wish I was in the ATL, I would head there. The Columbus auto show is a joke. Bunch of dealer crap.

I used to attend this every year when they would bring new cars, but it seems like it is dominated by nothing but dealers with current model cars lately?

Let us know how it turns out...

Disappointed to say the least. No Benz or BMW's. There was some crowd favourites and a model I snapped for the brothers. I will put them up shortly.
