BTW...Did any of you have any trouble with the cops leaving the convention center?

A lot of the show cars got pulled over leaving the show. There were PD everywhere pulling people over left and right. I even saw a few cars getting towed...

I was up on North First ( ) and was noticing that the SJPD were basically just roadblocking the on-ramps. I also heard reliably that they basically dragnetted the exit of the place.

So, you want a car show in SJ? Fine. So long as no one is speeding, let the mods slide for one night. IMO. ESPECIALLY FROM THE SHOW CARS.

I love San Jose.

They blocked off the only exit out of the convention center for us. As we were heading down the ramp from the loading docks to the street, they were pulling us over. We were still on convention center grounds.

Ya, the cop situation was not favorable. Many, many, people exhibiting their cars will never come back because of that bullshit. A civic got pulled over between the convention center exit and his trailor on the other side of the convention center. I can only imagine what kind of bad press these kinds of things will generate for a city that is really trying to create a positive image for itself.

Congrats. I didn't see the playstation come out this time ;-) I'm glad that one S2000 at least got some love at the show! One of these days, I'd like to see a clean sweep of S2000s. That would be sweet.
