hey folks the Toronto Auto Show was on from Feb 17 to 26 at the Metro Toronto Convention Center in downtown Toronto. Me, Devarishi and ambylimo were at the show armed with a camera to shoot the exotics and beauties on display. It took us almost 6 hours to go through the whole display and we had to rush through the last few makes due to time limitations. So, here is a brief report and pics of the show. Lets start with the domestics.

General Motors : Never been a fan of their products and as usual the GM display had all it's boring cars around. These guys really had a tacky show put up for visitors. Every hour there would be a guy who would walk down the spiral staircase playing the guitar while a background voice would go booming about their fantastic products. Since GM was a sponsor of the Canadian olympic team at the Turin winter olympics, there would a bunch of guys who would 'snowboard' across the display in mid air hanging from a wire making all sorts of noises to attract attention. The GM display was right next to VW and I had to tolerate this display 8 times in my 8 hour shift.

. Still, there were some exciting cars, mainly concepts.

Camaro

GM Sequel Concept

Buick Velite The old man's car got a convertable concept.
