Who plans to go this year?

We all know when the auto show is.... and we are all going.

03aspec 03-13-2009 07:38 PM

i dunno, i feel the auto shows are too focused on small fuel efficient cars nowadays, which i have absolutely no interest in.

murd0c 03-13-2009 08:09 PM

So you go to the auto show you fill out tons a ballots cause you want something free, they then sell your numbers to these BS telemarketer and you will get carge calls for the next 6 months so be carefull.

Euro7r 03-13-2009 09:15 PM

$15buxs on weekends. wasn't it cheaper the previous years?

I'd rather go to the car dealer and sit in their cars for free instead. Heck I can even test drive them. Ridiculous admission costs for the auto show.

you fill it with fake info man

AzNightmare 03-14-2009 02:36 AM

^Then that defeats the purpose. You might as well not fill the ballots then, since you won't win anything if your fake info is drawn...

I've been there the last 4 years in a row... Think I will possibly pass this time. Doesn't seem to be worth it anymore. Can't believe the previous gen STI was ALWAYS locked every year.
What a load of BS. Not like that car is even an exotic... The 350Z and S2K was unlocked... even some of the BMW's and Benz were unlocked... I don't get it.

PavelGTR 03-14-2009 11:53 AM

Yeah i'm going. Hopefully this year its not full of fucking hybrids.

DasHooch 03-14-2009 12:10 PM

I was just at the Calgary Auto Show. Lots of hybrids on display.

Vancouver will have at least one fuel cell car on display (not a super new one though).

Any car can be unlocked if you ask. Helps if you look like you would buy one.

van_driver 03-14-2009 01:36 PM

honestly...I think it's getting really boring

Dinan3 03-14-2009 11:58 PM

I'm going for sure, just like every other year.

I have to agree, but I'll be going anyway ... sigh.

Hey I remember going to a tuner show a couple years ago at BC place, Is that still being done does anyone know?

q0192837465 03-17-2009 01:20 PM

I havn't been in years so it should be something new again, thanks for the details of it.

Rich Sandor 03-24-2009 12:58 AM

I should be working the Ford booth on one of those days.

TRDood 03-30-2009 08:38 PM

what date is the chinese day, so I can go for half off!
=)

i still get suckered into it every year... usually i have a pretty good time since i get to sit in every car =D

Synaptik 03-30-2009 09:23 PM

yes. because i'd love to pay $15, in this economy, to go and look at cars i can see on the road or dealership and read up online on, and to check out those few exotics that i won't be able to sit in anyways.
