One highlight is the hall where the aftermarket items are displayed. You get to see Cadillacs with 24 inch rims and all the latest electronic gadgets like tvs and video games, etc. One recent addition is the celebrity car section. You can see what what celebs and their fat bank accounts can do to Escalades or Ferraris or Beamers.
The only downside... unless you're rich, you do come away with a feeling that you somehow don't make enough because more than half of the cars in the show are out of your price range.
The annual autoshow is usually in the first or second week of January. Check the LA Convention Center's website for more details.
