Mazda's show for the Detroit Autoshow!

For those of you who don't venture to any other sections on the forum.

I just read this on Autoblog.

http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/11/m...ut-at-detroit/


The Detroit autoshow is starting to look very interesting.

Neo are you going this year?
I should be making my first trip there....my sister-in-law works for Inside Line and will be going to the show from California. It's a double bonus because I don't have to fly out to L.A. to see them!

I will take lots of pics on my DSLR and post them on the forum. I look foward to the Mazda display....my lease is up next September and I need to know what direction they are going with the 8.....or hopefully a new 7

I think there will be a few RX-7 members thinking of going as well.
We can carpool down if everyone feels up to it...

Anyone else interested?

Possibly meet up somewhere?

Footman,

I was under the impression you were going with a few other people.
I didn't know you wanted a spot in the car.
Well, we can always rent a van and go down. Which gives us a bit more room.
Anyone down for that?

Its a show car, it'll never make production. Notice the 55 on the body? The 55 from the LeMans winning 787B in 1991 !

Detroit is going to be awesome, bring an extra change of pants if they decide to fire it up indoor and rev it up. The bodywork easily beats all the Ferraris and Lambos, and I believe if they tried, the bodywork could be road legal.

Please takes LOTS of pics.

What ever works. We all have to chip in for gas and stuff anyway. BTW my brother might want to go as well so let's see what we can work out...

I'm down for renting a big *** van. If we have more, we might have to rent 2 vans and split the costs.

Alright, as it stands, my 3 is out. There's no way we'll fit everyone in it.
So we need 1 van so far.
My bro is still sitting on the fence regarding the autoshow. He won't know until 1 week from the show.

So far we have Agent008, Darkbrew+bro, Footman, Hevnsnt, and my self. That's 1 mini van.
Anyone else?

So what's new with this. Are we doing or what? I don't want to wait the last minute to make decisions. We act fast, and we act now to get this organized so I can get the dates down with my employer.
I'm looking at Jan 19th saturday if that's good with people. We leave in the early morning, should get there by noon.

Footman is all about getting down to business! lol
Ok, the show is in 2 weeks time.
The 19th works out fine for me.
I'll let Agent008 and Hevnsnt know about the date and see what they think.
Then we should be good to go.
Dark,
Is your bro coming?

So the 19th it is. Where does everyone live?
I know Agent008 is on the way down for me. Footman, can you rendezvous with us at his place? Or do you have a place where you want to get picked up?
Everyone else is west of us so we can pick them up on the way.
