Ft. Worth Auto Show 2012
Spent $33.00 to take the wife and evil kid to the Ft.Worth Auto Show and am now experiencing buyers remorse.
That is all.

A little of both.
But not worth $33.00 to take the family to the Ft. Worth car show they used 1/2 the floor space of last year or was it the year before I think they skipped a year.
Yes I could have gotten discount passes at my local car dealer and saved $3.00 but still.....
Anything new or exciting there, or was it all dealer stock stuff?

How many different kind of horse and buggies did they have at the Ft. Worth auto show?
VW Bug in running shoes
M Porcupine sedan
M Porcupine coupe
Crusty old e46 beater
Battery Powered appliance car
Mazda had a pre-poduction 6 other than that I can't think of anything else new or exciting.... There were some Fiskars at the show all locked. Porsche had all its SUV's open and they even sell cars now! Porsche guy said he thought they were going to be locked down for the rest of the show. All the current production cars were in attendance except for Mitsubishi and of course Suzuki.
No Scion either. I only noticed because the Subaru BRZ was locked and there wasn't a Scion to go to instead. They had a PRHT Club Miata there, but it's just a paint and tape job, no performance parts. Still, I enjoyed the show.
It's surprising to me how easy it is to see big differences in cars targeted to the same markets. Sometimes a simple thing like cheaper materials on touch surfaces can make a difference. For instance, the CX-5 doesn't have an armrest in the middle of the rear seat. How hard can that be? Competitors have had it for 15 years.
It was also good to go and confirm that I don't need to spend money on a new car. The differences between those and the cars I already own don't justify much expense, if any. I mainly go to become familiar with the cars I'll be shopping in a few years on the used market.
