Anybody else think overall it was kind of a low budget show? Looked like much less was invested in the displays compared to previous years. Toyota didn't even have the Supra on a revolving platform, was surprised by that.

Big truck year this year. We have media passes and all the hype was over trucks. The Supra seemed like an afterthought.

Sad that bmw and mb weren't there but at least we saw the bmw badge on the Supra exhaust

That is funny.

For real though, trucks everywhere. This show made me want a power wagon

I have to say, I thought this show was a big let down. I hadn’t gone since my s and I was disappointed at how little they had on the Supra (I couldn’t even find a brochure), the absence of MB and BMW and that most of the cars I was interested in were locked such that you couldn’t sit in them. Apparently this is the last year for the Chicago auto show and they definitely didn’t go out with a bang IMO...
