I haven't been to that show in years. Stopped going because it was the same cars year after year. I may have to check it out to see if it's changed at all.

Are you getting the Autorama confused with the Dallas Auto Show? The Autorama is a custom car show, the Dallas Auto Show is the latest model factory cars.

Not going.
