Cleveland Auto Show Helps Beat
The Winter Blues
Cleveland, OH (March 2, 2014) — Are you sick of winter weather? The snow may be falling outside, but inside the I-X Center at the Cleveland Auto Show it’s sunny, warm, and everyone’s thinking of spring. If the winter blues have got you down, the Cleveland Auto Show is the answer.
Where else can you see more than 1,000 new vehicles under one roof at the same time? Where else can you see exotic vehicles like the Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe or the McLaren MP4-12C in Millionaire’s Row? Where else can you test drive vehicles from 14 different brands or ride indoors on two test tracks that test the outdoor trail-rated capabilities of Jeeps or the brand new Ram Truck, Motor Trend’s Truck of the Year two years running?
The Cleveland Auto Show, that’s where!
While you’re at the show today, don’t forget to register for the chance to win a free two-year lease of either a 2014 Buick Verano or 2014 GMC Terrain. With winners being selected every day the show is open, the Cleveland Auto Show’s Car-A-Day Giveaway dramatically increases your chance of winning.
For those with a mechanical flair, the very best high school automotive technology students in Northern Ohio are facing off today in the 22nd Annual Automotive Technology Competition. Forced to find bugs planted in Toyota Corollas, the top two-man tech team will head off to New York City in April to compete in the National Automotive Technology Competition. The winners will also win a $5,000 scholarship, so competition should be fierce.
The Cleveland Auto Show opens its doors today at 11 a.m. and runs through 8 p.m. tonight. The show runs through next Sunday, March 9. Tickets cost $13 for adults; $11 for preteens aged seven to 12 and seniors 62 and older. Children six and under get in free. Parking is always free courtesy of your franchised new motor vehicle dealers. Don’t like lines? You can order e-tickets online with no convenience fees, courtesy of Huntington Bank.
