The fifth annual Chatham Indoor Car Show shattered its previous attendance records as more than 3,600 people spent part of the weekend checking out new cars at the John D. Bradley Centre.
The show featured some 100 vehicles from 10 Chatham dealerships including Chatham Mazda, Honda House, Chatham Nissan, Campbell Toyota, Chatham Chrysler, Lally Kia, Lally Ford, Volkswagen Chatham, Van Kesteren Hyundai and Heuvelmans Chevrolet Buick GMC Cadillac.
Show spokesman Greg Hetherington said the three-day event usually attracts about 3,000 people.
“We had a tremendous response from the public,” he said. “It was a great chance to get out and look at the latest models.”
The show featured everything from convertible sports cars to luxury sedans to family vehicles to trucks.
“There was something for everyone,” said Matt Herder of Chatham Chrysler.
Sharon DePelsmaeker of Heuvelmans said there was a steady crowd while Joe Legue of Volkswagen said it was a good chance to see people.
“It was nice to catch up with people you know who you may not have seen over the winter,” he said.
The show had free admission thanks to the dealers who picked up all associated costs.
