I believe 2012 was the last year the show would be held at BC Place.

Never been to the show in convention center so should be interesting.

went to the show today, tried to beat the crowd. Not as big as previous years but it was a decent show.

Going to go Saturday. Really curious how the atmosphere is at the convention centre, as BC Place felt really airy and bright in a good way. Plus as many others have mentioned, just want to go check out some cars under one roof, especially some that haven't quite made it to the showrooms yet

And thanks for the photos!

There is underground parking right under the West Convention Hall.

It's $10.50 per 1.5 hours or $14 for 2 hours.

Skytrain

It is located in the heart of tourist attraction.
Even the meter on side road is extra expansive.

weekend rate for the parking lot on cordova between terminal city club and vancouver club is 7$

there is a walkway from the parking lot that leads you to the food court and that leads you to the convo center

You can win a session for the "Mercedes-Benz" academy school at the Benz booth.

A lot of brochures.... A lot of tote bags... Chewing gum at the Scion section... Cash back at the Kia booth. Pens.

hey guys! free test drive (hybrids )! sign up at the toyota booth. you can test drive ct200, es300h, or the prius family. i dont think you need to buy an auto show ticket to do this. its right in front of convention center.

also, you can test drive FORD hybrids. but you have to register AT the auto show. very hidden i think. i didnt even know about it when i came out of the auto show without a stamp to wait for a test drive. i drove a prius c since i driven the lexus hybrids before.

also, it looks like you can either sit or drive the chevy volt and nissan leaf.

have fun!

THAT SUBARU RC RALLY thing is messed up. A 9 year old got a 16 sec lap time...my best was 40 . Checked out the new SI with HFP kit and it was very nice inside...also 10th anniversary Lancer definitely peaked my interest.
