Here you go guys, i figure, this is just the first, and probably the worst set of pictures of the autoshow. We got some pretty good photographers from JW who live in and around Toronto so i'm sure they'll do better, but anyways, here are mine. they get better towards the end, quality wise anyways. I'm hoping to go back next week and get some more. My favourite car there was the Scaglietti. beautiful paint job, not sure my pics did it justice, but thanks to the ferrari guy for letting me in there. Unfortunately, pretty much the whole m-b exhibit was a write off. Hopefully visit 2 if it happens, goes better.

Here's take 2, I really had nothing better to do, so i headed down with one of my friends.

The 3 Astons

The 500hp Touareg with full body kit and beautiful rims

The GM collection

BMW, first one is a modded one of 6 or so that were sitting out in a hall. Unfortunately the lighting sucked so only got one usuable picture. The 330 from tifosi's pics was there as wel.

BMW's actual exhibit

The STI, which had people crawling all over it

SLK55 and CLS55

Mr. Bayr, you do good work (CLS55's engine)

Jeep's concept, can't remember what its called, but it only has a 172 hp 4 banger. Thanks for coming out and wasting our time.

Interior of the Chrysler Firepower

The Firepower itself

Nissan's only decent cars and the new c70. Looks beautiful, but it's very reminicent of the CLK.

Some more pics of Audi's exhibit (the s4, rs4 and rs4 avant)

A modded 350 and g35

Mazda, Jag, Ford (The yellow Mustang is a Saleen.)

Porsche

Again, a few more pics of the Italians

A Honda F1 car

A Vette you could win

Not a bad show in all and lets be honest there's a bunch of cars in there that will never be seen on the road. The douchebag quotient was pretty high yesterday, too many idiots from high school around spouting knowledge of how "this car does 270 miles an hour". :roll:
Anyways, till next year.

i apologize for the pics in the second visit that are from the same or similar angles. :roll:

Oh and speaking of douchebags:

Thats me, off the Ford company site, lol

sorry we missed you that saturday; but i'm glad you enjoyed yourself at one of the premier auto shows of the world

believe it or not... but this years show.... well, more then that... every show since 2002 hasn't been as awsome/amazing since 2002. all of the companies were still in the black... well, ford had just lost a lot because of the Firestone fiasco... but that didn't change the show... part of it was the cars, and the other part was the lavish expense put into the displays.

last year, the Ferrari booth F**ked up in their choice of floor, which definately didn't flatter the cars on a flash camera
