Some highlights include new releases from Bentley, Porsche and Mercedes. Bentley released its Continental GT with a V-8 engine. The sleek and chic GT is capable of 500 horsepower and can go from 0-60 in 4.6 seconds.

Porsche and Mercedes were not to be out-shined with Porsche debuting the new version of 911 Carrera. While Mercedes unveiled its 2013 Mercedes-Benz SL550, the hardtop convertible has a V-8 engine and a new futuristic look.
The auto show began on Jan. 9 open only to the press through the 10th. The 11th and 12th was an Industry Preview. On Friday Jan. 13, the auto show is having a Charity Preview from 6-9pm.
