DUB Magazine was able to move from the basement of Cobo Center to the main floor of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit this year and was looking forward to the extra exposure.
Dub is known for its wildly popular display of celebrity cars and the exhibit brought a new funkiness to the main floor. Detroit Piston Jason Maxiel sent two rides for the display.
With video games, loud music and several video screens, the DUB area was a multimedia wonderland.

It is always funny to see what people wear to the the North American International Auto Show in Detroit. Some came wearng Burger King crowns given to children at the fast food eatery. Others shunned coats and walked several blocks in sweatshirts to Cobo Center in the cold and snow. Still others looked as if they were going to a fancy dinner after the show.
Lots of people were talking about the bad weather, but it didn't seem to scare off anyone on the first public day of the auto show. There were hundreds of people there by 10:30 a.m.

Allison Parks took a picture of her big sister, Sarah, behind the wheel of a jet black Ford Mustang. Both of the teens from Berkley love the Ford Motor Co. muscle car. But their dad works for Chrysler.
Sara, 17, said Chrysler products are fine but "Mustangs are my true love." Allison, 15, agreed and both laughed about loving a car made by their father's rival.
