Auto Enthusiasts Take Over Miami

To celebrate the longevity and excellence that is the auto show, a new Green Way and Miami Street Rides attractions will be added with the expectation of bringing new dimensions to the show. One of the shows largest attractions, the Ride and Drive events, are expected to attract the more than 665,000 people that attend the auto show each year.

The new Miami Street Rides attraction will feature all that is aftermarket: tuners, SUVs, lowriders, exotics, drift cars and more. Another new happening at this year's show will be the Green Way showcase. Green Way will feature 19,000 square feet of electric and hybrid vehicles as well as industry-related, eco-friendly innovations.

Street Rides and Green Vehicles showcases are leaps and bounds ahead of technology that was featured at the first show 40 years ago, no doubt leaving the forefathers of the then 65-member Miami Auto Dealers Association proud. One of the first auto shows in the country when it opened, Miami was, and still is, amongst the big dogs: New York, Detroit, and Chicago. Although there are now more than 60 in country, Miami is still amongst the largest and most prestigious.
