So much for tradition,I think I would feel safer traveling to Detroit auto show then Chicago or New York to which I would not even give a thought to.

Maybe we should stop liking Porsche in Florida.

Why would the Detroit Auto Show be "safer" than other national shows?

Why would "safety" even play a role in such decisions? Is there some inherent danger in staging exhibitions in certain cities?

Porsche is a niche brand and their biggest markets, by far, are NYC and LA [[NYC more for the Cayenne and LA more for the Boxter, Carrera and other models). It's not a good brand for cold weather states, excepting the Cayenne.

New York and LA are the biggest markets for all auto makers. It's been that way for about 70 years.
