Toronto Auto Show

Here are some great pics of the Toronto Auto Show. The pic of the 3 Lambos is pretty hot. That Carerra GT is pretty amazing also. Any of you guys from the GTA go to this?

I'm going to try to get down to the show next week.

BTW: We have one of our members displaying his car in the Rogers Center @the Kensai Racing booth.

Anyone else going down?
Maybe we could meet up!!!

Every year I say nah....
But I seem to end up down there anyway.

In addition to all the exotics & new releases,
I really enjoy the antique autos.
There are usually some really amazing pieces of art there.

I would love to have the option to go to a car show like that. We just don't have anything like that here in the Maritimes. Seeing all those exotics up close and personal would be amazing.

I went last year and it was pretty good. You don't feel like herded cattle as much as the Detroit show. I'm considering going, but haven't made any plans yet.

Will be there this Sunday. I want a glimpse of the M35/45 interior. It was hyped up so much by the Star. Hopefully it is not too crowded as I'm taking my 2 year old. He likes cars more than myself.

As far as I remember, there would be sales people on hand from Infiniti. You will just have to ask them what can be worked out at the show.
Maybe you could pick up a good deal that way.


Good Luck

if I remember correctly, there was no sales people on the Infiniti stand last year. they just had all the dealers phone numbers and etc. But Nissan had dealers because some sales guy offered me $6000 off for a 2003 350Z. too bad I can't fit in that car.

I might go to the show but I will definitely not going on the weekend,especially sunday, its very crowded and to get inside 'hot' cars, you gotta wait in huge *** lines. I try to go when its not crowded like in the middle of the day but again I live 5 min distance to the skydome, (or should I say Robbers Center?)

I just got back from the auto show. No surprises, but its pretty cool. It took me about 3-4 hours to check out everything around. There are about 10 imports cars include G35Coupe and SKYLINE!!! It was a good day to chill with friends and talk about cars~ G35 is still H.O.T on the floor.

What colours of the g35 did they have. I am going to go with my wife and friends. The only thing I am still trying to figure out is what colour g35 coupe I should get.

Hey,

I fell in love with the M35/45 when I was at the NAIAS(Detroit Show)! I'm pushing my father to either get the all new STS or M45! nothing else. And once u see Im sure u will fall in love with it too! No Automaker beats the Japanese!Enjoy the show with your son!

I went over the weekend and I enjoyed it...Hard to pick a fave but I really liked the Volvo Evolve Concept...sweet
I also enjoyed the Pontiac Soltice and the Saturn sky
The G obviously still looks sweet.
By the way the Lambo Merciallago is sick...and never mind the Porsche Carrera GT...wow.
