2008 New-York Auto Show Starts Today
Everybody was waiting for the grand opening of the New-York Auto Show. For two days press was full of the articles about the vehicles presented there. Finally today is the first day when the show starts and will take place for 10 days till March 30.
This year New-York started earlier. Geneva Auto Show has been finished two weeks ago and the New-York Show starts right after it. Earlier the time difference between them was bigger (for a comparison, there was the whole month between the shows last year). The car manufacturers did not have time to breathe and had to prepare their presentations for both shows almost simultaneously.
Nearly a dozen of cars make there debut at the New-York show. Acura TSX, Honda Fit, Hyundai Genesis Coupe, Suzuki Kizashi 3 Concept and others. People can see different coupes like Audi A5, Audi S5, Scion Hako coupe, concept vehicles (Suzuki Kizashi 3, Saab 9X Byohybrid concept), and futuristic vehicles like Mitsubishi iMiEV. In total about 1000 vehicles are presented for the visitors.
