Jaguar XKR from `Die Another Day` in ice sculpture at New York auto show

Eighty dealers from across Western New York are ready to display almost 300 vehicles at the 2005 Buffalo Auto Show.

The five-day event begins Wednesday, Feb. 9, with cars and trucks occupying 110,000-square-feet of space on two floors of the Buffalo Convention Center as well as outside on Genesee Street.

Among the features of this year's show is an 8,200-pound ice sculpture carved by a Pittsburgh company into the shape of a full-size BMW Mini Cooper convertible and a Jaguar XKR from the James Bond film, "Die Another Day."

The auto show has been held annually for nearly 100 years.

Thanks to `Jean` for the alert.
