That was short lived. Just a few days after announcing that it would be
pulling out of both the
Detroit Auto Show and the
Chicago Auto Show, Nissan has changed its mind. Sort of. The Japanese automaker will indeed have a presence in the Windy City thanks to the support of its local dealerships, which will be manning the show in lieu of an official factory effort. This being the case, don't expect a particularly showy display, but at least attendees will get the chance to see the new
370Z,
Cube and
Infiniti G37 Convertible that were all unveiled across the country at the
LA Auto Show. According to Nissan, there's next to no chance that the situation for Detroit will change.
To recap, Porsche,
Suzuki,
Mitsubishi,
Ferrari, Land Rover and Rolls-Royce have all pulled out of the International Auto Show in Detroit. All's not lost, though, as room is now available for a couple of
Chinese upstarts to show their wares at the big boy table upstairs.
