Alongside Prestone, brands exhibiting in The Garage this year include the following:

"Every year, fans of the show look forward to seeing the displays and exhibits taking place in The Garage and Go, because both destinations encompass what Los Angeles is all about -- our love of cool and unique cars (old and new) and our appreciation for the alternative transportation lifestyle," said LA Auto Show and AutoMobility LA President, Lisa Kaz. "The array of custom cars and aftermarket accessories intermixed with inventions and products are a true representation of the diverse future of mobility."
