We had a great 2011 Buffalo Motorama. With only 4 months to plan it from start to finish, we had some of the best cars and bikes showcased at the Buffalo Convention Center. Also a great response from vendors. Thanks to all that came out to the show, showed, or supported us. This is YOUR show WNY and we want to keep the 50+ year downtown car show tradition going strong! So now it’s back. For 2012, we have the ENTIRE building this year. We are in discussion with a few new builders this year. We hope to announce them early November. More vendors, more cars, more bikes. Woman’s Oasis and Kiddie Korner are back too as well as an expanded motorcycle and sport compact area. 👍 Some of the top builders that are coming this year are: Ring Brothers RDP Motorsports RPM Hot Rods Tjin Edition Details such as registration forms and sponsor / vendor forms are up at [http://www.buffalomotorama.com](http://www.buffalomotorama.com) And as always, we are open to your suggestions and input.

Bringing some top notch builders to Buffalo this year. Ring Brothers are coming back, RPM Hot Rods too. RDP Motorsports are coming with their sick massive HP builds, multiple SEMA Design Award builder Neil Tjin is bringing 3 of his cars, and CPR Musclecar is coming back too. Some amazing new builds that have never been seen before. Shaping up to be even bigger than last year. If you got something worth showing, or want to be a sponsor, shoot me an email at [joe@buffalomotorama.com](mailto:joe@buffalomotorama.com) ---

But worth the price of admission! > [@tpgsr](#): > > [NYSpeed.com](http://NYSpeed.com) section? Well, I have the whole building this year. The lower right room is the Ice House with about 40 tuners. Upstairs is a mix of everything, show cars, circuit cars, classics, late models, exotics, etc Lower left room is half motorcycles and the other part undecided. Either putting some race cars or a group. The center room is a mix and won’t have a ton of cars since it’s where we do the awards and where some additional vendors will be. So basically if any of the NYSpeed community want to show, then shoot me an email at [joe@buffalomotorama.com](mailto:joe@buffalomotorama.com) with pics and details of what you have. I base cars and group locations on the amount of them. It’s $35 to register your car, you get 2 weekend VIP passes, in for the VIP party, and a bunch of show related things. We had an awesome time last year, and already planning on more fun this year. So if you’re interested, tell me soon. ---

Went last year, it had a nice variety of cars and top builders. This is a different show the most offered in this area, you don’t see the top names within 50 miles of buffalo. I thought attendance was low last year while I was there. I think more people should at least try to make this show, without your support indoor shows could not pull in the bigger builders to this area. I was going to enter my car, maybe next year, Good luck! [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/2012-buffalo-motorama-march-23-25-2012-wnys-largest-indoor-car-show/219499.md?page=2)
