IMPORTEXPO - Charlotte

Event Coverage supplied by Chris Gosda (@photosbycg13)

In the Carolinas, you never know what the weather will bring in the first part of the year. Luckily, Import Expo chose to have their Charlotte, NC event indoors, as participants and spectators were met with pouring rain during roll-in and while waiting to enter the event. The weather may have been cold and rainy, but the cars and the event were a hot one! With 100+ quality cars inside, it really started to heat up as people showcased new rides and fresh modifications, with this being the first event for some. On hand, you had a little bit of new school mixed with some old school from the import world. There was a classic Beetle, a few classic Porsches, a 280Z, among others, present to show. Once the doors opened, the line for spectators stretched on forever throughout the whole night. People of all ages were in attendance, enjoying the event, the music, the interaction with builders, and the camaraderie with friends, making it a fantastic event. The last headcount I heard was over 3,000 spectators. So participants really got to show off their rides, vendors had plenty of opportunities to showcase their merchandise, and members of the media had a lot to see and capture at the event.
