  The event is on until tomorrow, and the opening hours will be from 10am - 3pm. It's held at Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts Campus 1 (80 Bencoolen St)
  
  I was there earlier today and I'll post photos once Photobucket sorts itself out. It's very interesting - the design staff are on hand to answer your questions and talk to you about the pre-production processes, you can sit in the C-class sedan and CL-class coupe and there's a clay model for you to try tooling.

  Nope. You can talk to them about it if you want though.
