2010 NAIAS: Detroit Auto Show Schedule's Out

Camaro Convertible

For those of you anxiously awaiting a trip to Detroit in January for the city's annual auto show, it's time to plan.

Organizers have released the press conference schedule for the show, which is reduced to two days' worth of press events for the upcoming year. While some automakers have returned after a year off from the Detroit show, some are amping up their presence even more--Audi, with the first auto show debut of its A8 sedan; Chevrolet, with the new Aveo and Camaro Convertible; and Ford, with its next Focus.

We'll be back shortly with a 2010 Detroit auto show preview. Until then, it's on your marks:
