Hot Import Nights is back for '08 with bigger crowds and more cars, but what about the Euro scene?

On March 8, we attended the first Hot Import Nights of the year in San Mateo, CA. The convention center was packed with show cars which even overflowed into several halls.

This was probably the busiest HIN event we've ever attended, but the Euro presence appeared quite weak. VWs were slim and the majority of Euros were from Southern California. It was good to see some familiar faces such as TWCompetition and other past feature cars at the show, but the show still lacked a quality Euro showing. We’ll wait and see how the Los Angeles event fairs this weekend at the LA Convention Center. If you’re in the area, don't forget to check it out! www.hotimportnights.com
