Reinventing the Wheel: 2009 Autoshow

The autoshow was another great experience for me this year. It is my senior year and I’ve been involved in the autoshow 3 times at Northwood. My freshman year I was apart of Team Saturn. We took home the award for “Most improved Team”. My sophomore year I was on Team Pontiac. Although we didn’t win an award I met some amazing people that I still keep in touch with till this day. This past autoshow, helped me make a lot of connections with students, sales people in the local area, people in the community, and the auto industry. To tell you all a little secret, I know nothing about cars. Lol. I do not own a car myself, but I know how expensive it is for the maintenance of it. It’s always fun to do the autoshow and learn a lot about that industry. The best part of that whole weekend was being able to see the high end cars and as an upper classman, to actually get the chance to drive the cars from the dealership. I had the opportunity to drive two cars this year. Man that was AWSOME!!! Everyone should get involved at least twice in the autoshow if they chose to come to Northwood. I’m glade I did. For my first car after I graduate, I think I’m going to buy a Kia Optima. That is a great car and very nice on the road and the economy.
