I want to go to the Motor Con pretty badly, as I live half-an-hour away, but I just can't justify the high cost to walk in the door. I think it would end up being $70 (plus parking!) for my wife and I to just enter the building, and since we're mostly interested in the dealers that just doesn't make sense to us. If some of my favorite creators were there it would be different, but since I'm not into any of the comic personalities there I have to pass.
Too bad, as I'm really in the mood for a con.
