#NYIAS: Place Your BETS! Will The Show Go On Or Is It DOOMED Due To Coronavirus?

As we all get on with the start of the week, we're seeing a lot of gloom and doom. With the markets set to take yet another plunge today and coronavirus continuing to spread within the United States, it's not all sunshine and flowers this morning.

At least it's poised to be a beautiful, 68-degree day in New Jersey today.

On the horizon is the 2020 New York Auto Show (NYIAS). With all of the commotion around COVID-19, organizers have sent around an email saying the show will go on, as of last week. It was very reassuring, noting that there would be many Purell stations located throughout the show floor.

From what we're hearing through the grapevine, however, manufacturers will be making decisions VERY soon. THINK: The deadlines for vendors and shipping cars is basically here.

All that said, we've got to ask: IF you were betting, would you say the 2020 NYIAS is ON or OFF? Place your bet!

They will probably cancel the show. Probably the worst type of event to attend on a personal level...One or two infected people could infect thousands very quickly with everyone touching the cars.

New York announced a state of emergency. Many of my friends' offices are closing. This will be canceled for sure.

New York has an advanced state of Chicken Little hysteria because of all the liberals there who are unable to think.

I’ve got my industry/press day passes so the crowds aren’t as large, but betting it’s canceled so they can apply for their part of the 8.5 billion government funding. Was looking forward to dinner at Sparks.
