Some cool cars but mostly oem cars. Most places will have a concept or two though. As for freebies, nothing big if anything at all. Maybe a keychain or pen. LOL

I live in L.A. and I don't go to it as I find it waste of time. You will see same things you see on dealership lots with not much else interesting to see. If you want to see hotties you can do that anywhere in L.A.

The show is great for those looking for a new car, it allows you to sit in a vehicle that you might want to buy. For example, after sitting in both a Mitsu EVO and a Subie WRX, I found the WRX to be much more to my liking. Yeah, you can't take them for a test drive, but at least you will be able to get some brochures.

I find Kentia hall a waste of time, sans the AAA booth, which you can get plastic keys made if your a AAA member. The funniest booths are the car wax booths, who peddle their BS...
