The traffic and parking is always crap so if going by bus / taxi recommend that you get out on the frontage road opposite (i.e. heading towards pattaya) at the footbridge and walk over, and if going by car i recommend parking in Central Bangna walk across the footbridge and get a taxi to BITEC (5 minutes) and cross the footbridge when leaving and taxi back to central (5 minutes).

Seriously, there weren't many cars worth taking photos of - except the 'old' AMG CLK GTR

displayed outside [don't need to buy a ticket to see this]. But Chevy's booth set-up gets my vote ! Nice clubby atmosphere.

Got 32 million baht just laying around doing nothing?

A worker cleans the 6,761cc, 500-horsepower Bentley Arnarge-T with the price tag at 32,300,000 Baht (US$ 922,858 or euro 702,174) being displayed at the 28th Bangkok International Motor Show in Bangkok.
