2006 St. Louis Auto Show at America's Center
ST. LOUIS, (SLFP.com), January 8, 2006 - With over 600 new cars, light trucks and SUVs, the 2006 St. Louis Auto Show is set to roll into the America's Center and the Edward Jones Dome, January 25 - 29. The event, sponsored by the Saint Louis Auto Dealers Association, a not-for-profit group of local new automobile dealers, promises to be the area's largest automobile event of the year.
Approximately three dozen manufacturers will display their "latest and greatest" at the 2006 St. Louis Auto Show. Representatives from local dealerships and the manufacturers will be on hand to answer questions. The new 2006 models come in all shapes and sizes, from the Chevrolet Silverado Hybrid pickup to the all-new 2006 BMW M5 and 2006 VW GTI. Many 2007 models, available in local showrooms later in the year, are also scheduled to be on display, including the 2007 Saturn Sky, 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder, 2007 Yukon Denali, and the 2007 Lexus GS 450 Hybrid.
And the 2006 edition marks for the first St. Louis Auto Show at which visitors can actually drive new vehicles. The Toyota Off Road On Site Adventure will provide an outdoor obstacle course where Auto Show visitors can get behind the wheels of 2006 Tundra and Tacoma trucks to feel how they handle over an assortment of hills, berms and logs.
The 2006 St. Louis Auto Show boasts entertainment for the whole family, including two live action shows featuring Spider-Man™ and other Marvel comic superheroes on Saturday, January 28. Following each show, one at 11 a.m. and another at 3 p.m., Spider-Man and friends will sign autographs for kids of all ages.
Fans of the hit TV show "American Idol" can meet one of last year's finalists as well as one of St. Louis's favorite sons when Nikko Smith signs autographs on Sunday, January 29, from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.
Besides the hundreds of brand new vehicles, visitors to the 2006 St. Louis Auto Show also will be treated to some classy, classic cars from America's golden past.
