First time i could sit in the z and sti, but not evo mr, 2nd time i couldnt sit in the z or evo but still the sti. and then the third time i was able to sit in all of them. The show is about selling cars to customers, so if you walked up to lexus, and proved you were a mulitmillionare, they would allow you to take a first hand look at an lfa, same with lambo n such. So with the z, Im sure if you go and its closed off, but talk to a representative and really show your devotion that you are highly considering this car, he will allow you to sit in it. Another suggestion is to go on a day thats not so busy. You went on a weekend which is HELLA busy, so of course they dont want a shiiiit ton of people trafficing through a limited production vehicle. Go on a weekday during work hours, and you will have much better luck sitting in more cars, plus no long lines!

I went on Friday afternoon/evening and it was not very crowded. There was waiting for a few cars, but not many. In prior years, it was a madhouse. I guess this year's economy has really dampened consumer's enthusiasm.
Also, there really wasn't too many standout cars that consumer's were excited about. Although my read was that the domestic manufacturers held a better crowd than in prior years, especially Ford and Chevy.
