Postby Frost » March 5th, 2009, 7:16 pm

Who went this year? What did you think?

I went, I got some pics, they were pushing alot of Eco Friendly cars there, with Holden having some Eco shit all over their stand. And there being a large stands in the middle of the complex on LPG. Impco and some other brand.

They had a Monaro with a top mount blower with Injected LPG, a FG FPV F6 and Impco had a new mustang.

Pics up later.

I went last saturday, the cars were nice, pretty much if you were to lazy to go to 15 different car brand dealers, that was the place to go.
Apart from a few cars all could be purchased from a dealership.
The BMW M1 was full of scratches, it looked really bad under the lights, the lexus' were the best imo
I will post up pics as well

Did anyone have a look at that Hyundai Genesis? Thats probably the only reason I'd go.

Why do toasters always have a setting that burns the toast to a horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?
