Cleveland Auto Show Starts This Weekend


Looking for something to do in the coming week? Look no further than the Cleveland Auto Show which runs from February 23-March 2nd at the IX Center. The event attracts about 650,000 visitors every year and is one of the oldest and biggest auto shows in the world.

This year it will be a special show as Chevrolet will debut the fastest Corvette with its 427 Limited Edition Z06. The car has 505 horsepower and can go from 0-to-60 miles per hour in 3.6 seconds. The world debut is a rare thing for the Cleveland show as that distinction usually goes to Detroit, Chicago, or the New York auto show.

40 automakers will take part in this years show and over 1,000 different vehicles will be on display. You will be able to get behind the wheel of Jeeps and take them on through a off road test that is set up in the massive confines of the IX Center.

There will be two car giveaways on the last day of the show. You can enter to win a 2008 Dodge Nitro or a 2008 Cadaliac CTS.

Tickets for the show are $12 for adults with discounts for teens, seniors, and 3 day passes for those who want to take there time to see the exhibits throughly.
