I went to the "Porsche Breakfast" (9am-11am), I arrived around 9:45. No big deal there, continental breakfast, but got to sit in the cars. Also, no lines to get in.
They had a number of debuts this year at the Auto Show, more than recent years.
I agree with you Steve, the aftermarket is a waste, it has been getting smaller each year. I was out earlier than I usually have gotten out in the past.
I did like seeing the layout for the new "Porsche Experience Center" that they will start building next summer at the current location of the Dominguez Hills Golf Course.
