Toronto Auto Show 2008

So I head down to the MTCC and Rogers Centre to check out the auto show this year. My buddy got a free pass so we split the cost of one ticket. Well it wasn't much different than the other auto shows I have seen previously. There was a really cool display of some very old Lamborghinis which was very cool to look at. They even had the off road Lamborghini that, in my opinion, was the inspiration for the Hummer. I am always disappointed by the lack of booth girls. There never seems to be enough of them.

So yeah not enough booth girls not enough concept cars and too much of the same old same old...

I did see one interesting thing though. In the Audi display they were letting people sit in the R8 which runs about 170,000.00, I found this interesting as most companies lock up their cars as soon as they breach the 60,000 mark. Sure there are a few that don't but they don't let you touch the expensive cars like the R8. One thing that struck me though was the number of people that would have gone through that car. The bending that would occur to get in and out of it added to the bad food that the Auto show sells I am sure there were quite a few human made wind storms in that little car. I wonder if they have to get the detail shop to clean that stink of ass out of the car after the end of the show...
