Covid has cancelled another event in SEPTEMBER. There is more to the story here. Auto manufacturers are revealing more vehicles online and saving $$ Millions $$ by not attending these types of shows. OEMs have found a way to promote the new models in a manner that make the "event" all their own. Their podcast shows get more global reach for a fraction of the cost.

Moving to this Motor Bella event at the M1 Concourse race track is the auto executives way of having a garage party - most of these guys have a track-side garage here and it may be a way to add another entertainment write-off for their $80,000+ toy garage.


I am not rich...but I get off my ass everyday to make sure I am not broke!

Can we get the Mexican cartels to help us with our supply chain issues? They don't seem to have any trouble getting stuff from one place to another.

We aren't supposed to notice such things. Good catch.

I know a few people that have garages at M1 and your talking 1 Million plus costs. The smallest garage (18x38) is $165k bare walls. When you add the upper floor, bathroom and some furniture your at $250k minimum.

It would be cheaper to buy a house, gut it and put your cars inside it for that cost, and you still own the property. That's just me, don't have crazy money to burn, so I think of a cheaper way. Though that race complex is awesome, it would be my vacation home to live there.
