gds52 · 01-15-2013, 11:25 AM

If anyone around here planning to go to Philly Auto Show 2013, here is a good self parking garage.
Dont know the name, its between 15th and 16th street on "Spring street".
please note Spring street and not spring garden st.
Weekend parking is $5 for the whole day and there is a plenty of space on upper floors...6-7-8 and above. Its 2-3 blocks from the auto show.

I believe they have taxis in Philly. For $5 a day, you could afford a taxi ride

But to each his own.....thanks for the info. That's where I'm parking

$5 all day is pretty cheap. I'm always around that area and parking in center city garages cost a lot. Thanks for the heads up!

Great to learn about another self-park - they seem to be few and far between these days!

Speaking of parking decks, has anyone parked at that totally automated one right by McGillins at like Juniper & Sansom? We stood there and watched it move cars around one day...it was absolutely awesome.

Maybe that was yesterday - I just got back.
BMW had some nice cars, X1, X3, X5 X6, M5, M6GC, Z428i, 535i & 328 & 335i & more

The M6 had the Carbon Fiber trim inside - OMG, I am now shopping for this trim in for my E93! I always thought it was an overpriced luxury item but I changed my mind - it was that cool. And I saw many other cars, I think it was the only car there that had CF trim. (many high end cars had CF on the outside --Audi R8 was gorgeous). There was a concept Lexus that was also really cool, look at those rear headlights!!

Anyway - just letting you guys know - BMW didn't disappoint!
