mike i believe the 50 dollar fee is if you are a non exibiting manufacturer. if you are just a retailer then it should be free. someone check on this though.

That is correct Gator. The company I work for is only a retailer, not a manufacturer, thus I'm going for free (well the hotel and such isn't free, but you know how that goes).

I'd go for meeting up somewhere on Saturday, bummer is I don't think I'll be driving the Nova from Gainesville to Orlando since it will most likely be getting her planned winter "upgrades".

You are most likely correct as I have always gone with other companies and not paid that way. Still need the correct paperwork for sure. Good catch.

There is a PF Chanfs a couple exits down the interstate. The convention center is on a strip called International Drive that has everything in the world you would possibly want, (100's of reataurants, golf, go-karts, Bass Pro Shops, museums, plus theme parks and clubs all around it.)

I'll be there Saturday. Don't think I'm gonna see too much BMW stuff though...
If anyone drove in and needs to work on their car before they leave, let me know, my shop is only about 5 miles from the show. I'll be glad to help out Saturday night or Sunday.
