I havn't seen a lot of promotion for this event, so here's the information for anyone interested. It was a great time last year. Cheers.

Come join the fun at Show & Shine 2005!
When: Sunday, October 2, 2005
Where: Bavarian Autosport
10:00 am to 2:00 pm, 275 Constitution Ave, Portsmouth, NH
(just an hour north of Boston)
rain or shine!

Show & Shine 2005 promises to be a great day filled with camaraderie, good food, thousands of dollars in free raffle prizes, awards and, of course, lots and lots of BMWs. Last year's event drew record crowds, some truly exotic BMWs, and people from as far away as Arizona and Newfoundland.

About the Event:

It's free!
Anyone can join the fun and festivities at our annual Show & Shine event. Here's your chance to show off your BMW or Mini and share styling ideas with other enthusiasts. You can enter your BMW or Mini in our friendly People's Choice competition or simply be a spectator. Trophies and prizes will be awarded for Best of Show, Best Interior, Best Exterior and more.
Check out a vast array of BMWs from old to new, from 100% original to super-modified.
Chat with representatives from Bosch, Bilstein, AC Schnitzer, B&B Tri-Flo and others.
Win valuable prizes in a free raffle -- shocks, spring sets, exhaust systems, floor mats, and more.
Special "Show & Shine Only" discounts in our catalog showroom!
Complimentary refreshments and BBQ!
It's free!

Registration:
The People's Choice competition is open to any and all BMWs & Minis. Registration will be on a 'first come, first served' basis on the day of the event starting at 9:00 am. The parking lot opens at 8:00am. Registration limited to first 350 cars. PLEASE NOTE: In order to accommodate as many participants as possible, only BMWs entering in the competition will be allowed to park on the grounds. Spectator parking will be available nearby.

Our showroom will be open from 10 am to 2 pm. You're welcome to come in and browse, ask questions of our sales staff and make purchases if you're so inclined. In the interest of keeping the check-out lines short, we ask that you take care of any returns or customer service issues during our regular hours of operation, Monday through Saturday.

If you plan on spending the night in the area, we advise making room reservations as soon as possible. There are literally dozens upon dozens of hotels and restaurants in the area. (the NH seacoast is a popular destination) The Chamber of Commerce can help you find just what you want.

If you wait till the last minute, rooms can be hard to find locally! Show & Shine often coincides with Homecoming or Parent's Weekend at the nearby University of New Hampshire. (Plus early October is peak foliage season!)

Happy motoring!

Something just doesnt seem right about a show and shine event where you drive your car, then let it sit around all day, and they serve you beer all day long before you hop in it and drive it home....

Sounds fun though...wish i could make it....
