Detroit's Car Extravaganza: A Showcase of Wheels and Thrills

The Detroit Auto Show kicked off on January 17, inviting car enthusiasts to explore the newest vehicles and cutting-edge tech. It wasn't just about shiny new models; classic cars also stole the spotlight. A standout was the Road Runner, praised for its top-notch performance by JD Long from Vanguard Motors. For those not into flashy colors like neon green, there were plenty of other choices from well-known brands like Jeep, Ford, and Bentley. This event is a long-standing tradition, according to Merrill Cain, director of public relations for the Chevrolet Detroit Grand Prix. He mentioned that it's a great way to start the year, with people looking forward to it every January. Even those not planning to buy a car found the show educational and engaging. Maria Benedek, visiting from Miami, hoped to learn more and maybe even chat with car owners.Interactive experiences were a big hit. The Ford Bronco ride, in particular, drew a lot of attention. Professional driver Sara Haro called it the highlight of the show. For some, like Rebecca Dick from St. Clair Shores, the Bronco ride was the main reason to attend. She had seen it on the news and recently bought a Bronco herself. Chad Ripley and his son Cooper even traveled from Ontario just to try it out. The show catered to all ages. Kali Gray, a young visitor from Belleville, was excited to dive into the experience. The Detroit Auto Show continued through January 25, offering something for everyone.
