All Italian Car show 2009
 
Well, I just got back from the "All Italian Car show" and it was great. Great turn out. Not as great as last year's but it was definitely decent. I didn't bring my camera or video camcorder this time. But this year there were no Murcielago's but there was a lot more Gallardo/Gallardo Spyders and a White Superleggera with a LP560 front end. A few Delta Integrales and a host of other Italian auto makes(Alfas, Lancias, Fiats, Ferrari), sport bikes and bicycles. :) Oh and Italian women! :thumbsup: The Kid's F1 Gran Prix race was great as well. :)

Oh one last thing, there was a replica (at least I think it was) Shelby 500GT from Arizona as well. :)

Hopefully others who went to this event will have pictures posted.

If you guys are bored at home, the show is still going on till 4 pm at the Italian culture Centre on Grandview HWY/12 Ave (across from RONA).

I know what you mean haha but at least we're having these events. Oh and I'm surprised the 500 Abarth wasn't here.

It was upsetting being there. Seeing the Alfa Romeo's made me miss mine. I'm Always Looking For Another = ALFA. :D

Theres a 500 ABARTH in Van?!

That supperlaggera with LP560 front end is pretty wtf actually.................identity crisis or best of both worlds?

SuperSlowSS 07-26-2009 09:50 PM

lambo need to do something about the seq transmission in those Gallardo... and the seats. Same with the superleggera. Other than that.. great cars. haha

bcrdukes 07-26-2009 10:17 PM

Perhaps just me but any newer Lambo and Ferrari is just blah. :o

I prefer the old skool stuff. :)

skyxx 07-26-2009 10:24 PM

^ Me too, they don't look iconic enough. Same thing goes for Mercs and BMW.

StylinRed 07-27-2009 06:59 AM

i wish you guys would post about these events before they happened......


its like going out cruising with a buddy and seeing the hottest chick ever jogging and just getting your fill as you cruise by and after you're gone you tell your buddy about her

Until you drive a few on the track :)

but you are kind right about the lambos, it does have problems.. crappy transmission, shitty seats, overheats easy. And way too many of them on the road.

This last car, the Lancia Hyena was a pink-rose color and would change depending on the angle you looked at it. It was very...flamboyant.

StylinRed 07-27-2009 08:37 PM

and again i wish u guys woulda given notice it was gonna happen -_-

Quicktrade 07-27-2009 08:46 PM

Seems like the old lambos and ferraris look better than the new ones..
