Too expensive for me, but I'll be watching. It's definitely a great car show.

Enjoy your trip.

Would love to go some day, just a little too far to travel. Have a good time there.

I would love to go, although the $$ for the cars are a little steep for my pockets. BTW I will be watching the auction from home as I have for as long as it has been televised on Speed channel.

I'll be there! I spend the whole week there except for Saturday and Sunday. I have no plans to buy anything of course - but it's just about the best car show you'll ever see. I guess it helps that I live in the Phoenix area - so no hotel or travel other than a 30 minute drive up the 101....and my buddy is a vendor there so I get a pass to get in.

There is so much more to see than what little they show on TV.

Won't be there in person, but I'll be watching on TV.

It's partly because of Barrett-Jackson that I bought my C5. Just couldn't stand looking at all those gorgous cars anymore. Had to have something for myself. That's when I started looking for a C5 'Vette. The rest, as they say, is history.

Was there last year and about 5 years ago. It is getting so crowded there on Saturday that I would rather watch from home. Best car show hands down though....

It's at Ft. McDowell Casino at State Route 87 and Fort McDowell Road.

I'll be at both
