Nice pics, some very good looking cars. Too bad can’t say the same about some of the people attend the show, Heeheeee.
The car show in Calgary generally suck big time, it is more like a showroom of all the dealers, 99.9999% production cars.

One of the nicest displays I thought was 2 vehicles that I actually helped build in my working career. They are the ones with the Cannons on them painted in the dark Military Green. The Coyote model of the Mowag armoured vehicle. Yes most of the vehicles at the show were extremely wellmade and looked very good as well. The Dash’s in almost all of the imports were virtually identical as to the controls for the heating and cooling. They all have a round turning type of knob on them which actually looks like its a fairly decent design as well. Hopefully it will stand up to many years of usage.

Nice pics. Like the calgary show,the edmonton one is the same. Pretty much a giant showroom. Never really any concept cars. Some day,I would like to go to the T.O. show or the detroit show.

I noticed a picture of an Accord Wagon? Is this going on sale in North America or better yet, Canada?

That was the “TSX Wagon” in the Natural Resources Canada Booth.

Trust a Canadian to spot the Accord Wagon out of all that.. I’m guilty too, just bought a Legacy 2.5i wagon… Funny no mention of the Passat Wagon showing here, which I used to own - shitty 1.8L engine, does nothing for me now looking at it - in fact I look the other way when I see VW on the plate.
