I was driving down 75 and saw the billboard with the advertisement and thought I was seeing things. This starts on the 21st and goes until June 20th so plenty of time for you all to see some of the best automotive designs ever. I know I will be there probably early next week (get in while the kids are still in school). Tickets are $18 and you can get the audio guide addition for an extra $5 that will give you a little more history about the cars as you view them. The site has the following cars listed as being on exhibit. Not sure if there are more, but this is what's on the site. I cannot wait to see that Jaguar XKSS along with the Aston DB4.

I'm definitely going. If IFO gets completely rained out, everyone from IA should caravan down there together.
