Additional information and discount are available on the official auto show Web site, www.SouthCarolinaAutoShow.com. Advance e-tickets may also be purchased online at a savings of $1 off the regular adult admission price.

I have gone to this event the last few years and since it is indoors its a good show......looks like they will have some Mustangs and Corvettes there according to the floorplan but they haven't said besides the new cars what features they will have. I usually go on Sunday when they open because it is not as busy and its also kids day so they get in free!

I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm just not in the market for a new car so non of that interest me. there was a new shelby, custom orange challenger, new zr1 vette, new mustang, new camaro, etc. And also some old stangs. See my pics thread for a highlight...
