This continues to be a growing show (it takes up 2 full floors) that is well produced by Paragon Expo and the Greater Hartford Auto Dealers Association. Read below to see all the info you need about the CT Auto Show. Hope to see you there! BTW, comments in italics are mine and not from the official press release.
New to this year’s show is the East Coast Styling & Accessories Showcase, featuring some of the most exciting custom vehicles around. This showcase features all types of cars that have been completely restyled with the hottest accessories, from chrome rims and suped up engines to racing seats and LED lighting. The vehicles have been customized from the inside out, making them a great attraction for car lovers of all ages.
For all kids, the young and the young at heart, there are plenty of stimulating activities to keep them excited for hours. The U.S. Army is bringing in its #39 NASCAR race car as well as a tactical fire truck, which is three times as large as a normal fire truck! Kids can climb on this giant vehicle, adding to their enjoyment at the show. I'm sure there are lots of adults who would like to climb on it, too!
Returning to the show will be the popular exotic car showcase. Miller Motor Cars will be bringing in some gorgeous Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Maserati models, which attendees can admire.Just remember, though, you can look, but you can't touch these cars!
There are tons of prizes to be given away this year at the Auto Show. After viewing all the amazing custom cars, attendees can vote on their favorite for a chance to win a flat screen TV! There are also HD car radios that people can win. The Hartford Courant will not only have Nintendo Wii’s set up for attendees to play with, but one lucky person will bring a Wii home! Hey, who says the Courant is going downhill? They have money to give away a Wii!
