    Default Who went to the Motor Show??

    I was very dissapointed this year, The stand models were majority men and the other little bit were not very attractive women, Only a couple of concept cars, Nothing this year that made me go WOW or AWWWWWW I WANT IT! Really strange...

    But then again, The efijy was just mint, I got some perfect shots of that

    cheers

    Don't think I'll be able to make it this year Went last yar and got some photos of the Kelly Brothers HSV. Posted them in the news section somewhere. From what I've picked up alread there isn't really much to see at the motor show this year anyway, although it would have been nice to see the new Porsche Cayman up close... If I suddenly become rich I'm buying one!!!
    Back in the hope things have settled down...

    Yeah I didn't go this year, first time I've missed it in about 5 years, from what I've seen in the media its all a bit ho-hum this year. Holden didn't surprise us and neither did Ford. The best year was when I saw the Nissan R390 gt1 roadcar and just couldn't walk away (V8 quad turbo). Other memorable moments were the commodore coupe and the new torana.
    But this year hmmmmm I'll keep my moneyz instead.

    SURPRISE US NEXT YEAR HOLDEN PLEASE!!!

    Ford did a Territory Turbo, but I don't think anyone was surprised, it was a logical thing to do considering they just need to rip the engine out of the XR and put it in there..

    Not a fantastic showing from Holden which was disappointing, can't wait for the VEs
