I'd love to run over to check it out today but I just don't have time...maybe tomorrow.

Based on pics alone, the 9-5 refresh looks good, but I think the SportCombi looks incredible...can't wait to see it up close.

My friend asked me to go to the show on Sunday, but I had to decline. I've never been to an auto show; are they worth going to?

I go every couple years to see what's new from the various manufacturer's. I like it because it's generally a much lower pressure environment than going to a dealer. Also, it's nice to be able to browse from all the manufacturers. Of course, you just can't test drive the cars. So I guess if you consider walking around looking at the latest car models to be worth your while, then yes, i suppose so. This would be especially true if you were in the market for a new car.

No. wait 3 or 4 months and you can see the same thing at your local dealer for free.
