I like Audis, always have, Lancer Evo X, 370z,..so many choices to choose from.
I'll see whats out there...one priority is that its able to hold my golf clubs!!!

Got down there on Sunday morning. The crowds were not too bad this year. Sign of the times I guess.
People were around the usuall high end vehicles..mercedes, Lambo's, Ferrarri, the regulars!!!
Porche and Pontiac were not to be found....
One nice thing, the Program Guide is a free-bee this year. Just a small donation is required.

I went on Monday, it was so packed, so dissapointed there was no nissan or infiniti company representing themselves...just a 370z and a GTR. But overall, Audis, BMW, and IS-F, and AMG were amazing
I went, it was alright, nothing spectacular, but a nice outing on a day off.
It was really interesting watching people sit inside either of the 2 G sedans they had there, with those "I wish" kind of looks on their faces and the "WOWs". Kinda made me stop to realize to appreciate what I have.
The show got pretty packed by the end, especially in the convention centers and made the experience worse as time went on. Too much walking around, too many people, too many stock and base model cars, (4 altimas, 4 or 5 golfs, 3 or 4 corollas). Basically it was worth the $$ to go, but if you miss it, don't worry, nothing you can't see in a dealership.
Cars that just made me want to hump the tailpipes were the Niss GTR and the Lexus ISF. The new concept Lexus IS250 was nice. KIA blew me away...they had this sick red concept sports car and some funky new redesigns including the Soul. For Kia I was shocked. I'll get some pics up soon today.

could you get up close & personal with the 370Z?
^^^ +1
I watched a lot of people do the same thing. I brought my dad down with me cuz he wanted to see the EX/FX and compare them to the 2010 RX, but there's too much slope to the rear hatch in both the EX/FX, so he's likely getting the 2010 RX hybrid. He's a slave to Lexus.
But this year it took me less time to go through the show than past years.
The car I drooled over the most was the Aston Martin. I almost blew a load on them lol.
The paint I liked the best was the Lambo. it was like a flat white. It really struck me as an awesome colour.
Thing I like about these shows is the discounted car cleaning products I picked up a clay bar from world's best and a quick detailer tool that's like the spinbrush tooth brush.
