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

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.

$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.

^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.

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.

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.
