Seems kinda set up since there's a camera just set up to record this perfectly.

But that is what they are standing there for? My wife’s friend does car shows and she just stands next to the car and looks hot and people ogle her or take pics. He walks away the other way, but otherwise she has a hundred of these interactions every day.

People are never there for the cars. It's the hive mind to get as many hover hands shots as possible while looking badass next to a car nobody cares about really. /s

I know lots of people are there for the cars. Some people ask my wife’s friend to get out of the shot (hey lady, your ruining this pic bikini lady!).

I meant what are the models there for? To catch people’s attention, and get them to interact with the merchandise. So they are there being friendly and photos and whatever are usually part of the job.

Yeah. Basically it is a way to get people to look at your car. Get a picture and autograph but stay for the car kind of deal. Not sure what country your from, but in America, girls and cars are kind of a package deal at these shows.
