i did it for the Porsche Boxter, and also the Caddy CTSV. it was fun both was held at Long Beach convention center. Porsche was the best paid i think 100 bucks and they gave you high class crackers and cheese. The Caddy group eh.. 20 bucks and that paid for parking!

huh???

it's basically a pre-release of a new car. nothing is done to your car you get to check out a new car that is not on the market yet. you fill out a survay as you go over the car, some times you get to drive it around a few times.

but nothing is done to your car it just sits in the parking lot for 2-3 hrs untill your done with your survay

Yep, the big hint was the R&D department holding the survey. I guess it's good that most people are wary these days of scams!

Anyway, I missed out twice on peepin new cars! Both times I had a mandatory Saturday work schedule! DAMN!
