Auto shows are like beauty pageants, where contestants model evening gowns and swimwear before answering tough questions by burning rubber off the stage and speeding away at 88 miles per hour. Support world peace with today's Groupon: for $4, you get admission to the 2011 New Mexico International Auto Show ($8 value), taking place April 15–17 at the Albuquerque Convention Center.

Founded in 1984, Motor Trend Auto Shows reigns as one of the nation’s largest auto-show producers, pairing the latest fuel-slurping models from major manufacturers alongside Americana classics. Albuquerque’s vehicular event showcases new, redesigned, and pre-production 2012 FIATS, Ford Mustangs, and Chevy Camaros, plus alternative-fuel four-wheelers, and Motor Trend award-winners. Intrepid speedsters can demonstrate their K-turn prowess in a Chevrolet, Ford, or Chrysler test drive, while science fiction enthusiasts will savor the chance to experience the latest in-car technology, including accident avoidance sensors, built-in Wifi, and dashboard-mounted matter replication units. Adult attendees score one free entry into the Mustang Dream Giveaway Sweepstakes for the chance to win two Mustangs, suitable for hitching up to a double buggy. Customers also receive a complimentary one-year subscription to Motor Trend magazine, allowing guests to make bedroom door collages of the dreamiest hot rods.

Admission to the auto show is free for kids 5 years old and younger, in honor of their role as America's most prolific drivers. Children age 6–12 are admitted for $4 without a Groupon and also enter free with a paying adult during Family Day on Sunday, April 17.

Though Motor Trend Auto Shows sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
