that is, time for the Canadian International Autoshow. I always seem to find a moment to make it down and check things out. Last year was pretty interesting and I am hoping for the same this time around.

What are the other opinions out there? How does this show compare or contrast with others around North America? Will you be attending this year or do you intend to wait for the press highlights? Is there anything of particular interest?

i dunno, last couple of years it has been pretty boring from what i've heard...though i wouldn't mind going as a "club event" haha.

 

Im going next sunday
Cant wait to see Godzilla

 

the past 2 years. The show was S H I T

 

Show's been going down for past couple years already... I stopped a LONG time ago after it went downhill.

 

I would say downhill for the past 4 years...

I have been going as a vendor for the past 5 years, but not this year... so I doubt I will be attending..

Unless someone arranges a group meet!

 

I'll be going thurs. night to see the GTR and of coarse all the free food and drinks

 

I haven’t been for a few yrs now, might be a good year to go possibly taking a peek at the GTR, but I dont know I always said you've been to one you’ve been to them all.

 

i'm sure Nissan is going to barracade the GT-R up like they did with the Z when I went a few years ago. But I guess seeing the car in person is quite different from seeing just the pics.

i wonder if anyone can take a pic like this at the autoshow :P

 

I'll see what I can do... I'm going to VIP night on thursday and work for Nissan , the show opens to the public on friday

 

sweet haha!

 

nice

 

haha, ya media day is always fun.. They dont care if you sit in the rides..

 

it was great to finally sit in the car ..play with the guage setup crank the stereo.. we had aslong as we wanted to play around in it behind the scenes. The steering wheel is amazing to hold at 9 & 3...just fits your hands perfect...heres a few pics.. i have a video of going thru the many screens on the guage display sorry pics too big.. will resize and post friday

 

i'm in love with those seats! I wonder how much it would cost to retro those seats into a Z... :P

 

one of my customers told me they have a booth at the show (Hitch City) and if I want tickets just give him a call.. well see maybe Ill go

 

Not possible, the GT-R is on an elevated rotating platform. I went to the show yesterday. Here are some photos:







If you guys want I can post up some photos of other cars that I took yesterday.

I enjoyed it, it was fun, and I went with a bunch of friends, which always makes it a fun time.

 

pix...my girl and I went yesterday too...we took a ridiculous amount of photos (125) haha.

Great pix of the GTR above. Mine are quite similar. Yes, it was barricaded but we got there early so the flock of freaks was small haha.

It was a great day capped off by dinner at Shopsy's FTW!

Ps. Free parking brought to you by NISSAN FTWA (For The Win Again).

 

I was in the one behind the Glass wall I have a ton more pictures it's just resizing them all. I also have a vid of scrolling thru screens..... we could do everything but start it

Nice! haha, I figured it'd be barricaded.
