Default 2005 Pacific International Auto Show

The 2005 Pacific International Auto Show is coming to Vancouver from April 1st to the 10th. They're giving away a new Viper and tons of other cool stuff...rumors have it that a Carrera GT will be there...along with some new Audi stuff. I don't have a digicam...but I will try and borrow one from a friend on the floor. I'll try and get some good pics up...if you guys want anything in particular let me know! I'd be glad to see if I could get a good shot.

Anybody else from FinalGear.com going to be there? Let me know...
Will report shortly... images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

I'm going to be there for sure. I'll probably be going on the 10th, although I may end up going a day or two earlier. I posted a tonne of pictures after last years show on the forum, so you can expect a bunch more from me this year. images/smilies/smile.gif

A guy i know was at the NY auto show and walked up to the lambo representative, started saying how he has a 2001 Diablo and the guy just opened the Murci roadster's door and said "thinking about upgrading?"
obviously he said yes, and they showed him everything about the car images/smilies/biggrin.gif mighty comfy he says

I'm going to go this Saturday with my friend and my dad.

For the Volvo fans, the Evolve Volvo S40 Sedan will be there images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

http://www.seriouswheels.com/top-200...-S40-Sedan.htm

But not the "Moose" images/smilies/sad.gif

From the looks of the full add section of the Vancouver sun's March 30th paper the GM Hy-wire will be there as well.

I'll make sure my friend brings his digital camera (I have an old canon SLR) and take a whole bunch of pictures.
