For Metro-North travelers, or others coming into Grand Central Station at 42nd Street, an easy transfer to the M42 bus (which stops right outside Grand Central Station) whisks riders to the West Side with the last stop directly in front of the Javits Center on 11th Avenue. See you there!
The New York Auto Show was the first ever "car exhibition" in North America when it opened in 1900. Now, more than a century later, it remains one of America's premiere places to debut sexy new model cars from every major manufacturer. Today, a million visitors are always expected to arrive to see the hottest concept and production cars on display. 2021 promises to introduce more than 60 brand new and proposed models for 2022 and beyond -- including new cars, trucks, minivans and SUV's.
• The very first New York Auto Show debuted at Madison Square Garden in 1900 with 160 new vehicles on display, with prices ranging from $280 to a whopping $589 -- or equal to the annual average salary at the time. • In 1949, the New York Auto Show went international with inclusion of European carmakers, including fancy new models from Aston, Bentley, Jaguar, Rolls-Royce, Renault and Peugot. Ten years later Datsun, Toyota, and Daihatsu became the first Japanese carmakers to display at New York Auto Show. • The most expensive vehicle ever on display at the New York Auto Show debuted in 1972 and had a sticker price of $38 million. It was a fully-operational replica of the Apollo 15 lunar land rover from special exhibitor NASA. • When it came to the Internet, the New York Auto Show was an early adopter. Shortly following the introduction of its new website, the show broke all Javits Center records for a Sunday when nearly 159,000 visitors attended the New York show on Easter Sunday 1997.
