			I heard C4S got turbo this year.     
But jokes aside, all of the SR lineup of Matte cars will be mind blowing.

			I remember last year, there was a Toyota site where you can get tickets by filling out some survey.    
Seeing the Reventon will be worth the trip already!

			My dad is a car hauler and apparently the news is that Nissan will not be there.  And Toyota is supposedly going to have 28 vehicles there.  Don't 
 know if that is including Lexus or not, but that seems like a lot of cars to me.

			Yup, Nissan/Infiniti won't be at the show. This year's show is very small, but there will be an addition of a Motorcyle section. We'll see how this goes.           |

			Reventon will be worth it i think. I hope the motorcycle section will be a lot bigger this year. Last year the motorcycle expo was only like 10 bikes.   
Pat Richard from Rocket Rally, driver for Subaru Canada, will be there with his rally car too.

			Yeah I don't see why Nissan/Infiniti wouldn't show their cars...    
Does anyone how you can get a media pass, would be better to shoot the cars without all the people... I remember some people did that last year.

			i stopped going to these shows because they focus too much on gay green cars etc etc.    
i like to see more sports/exotics/muscle cars.

			It's $10......suck it up.  Or head to your local dealership later this week and try to get some from the managers.  They always get a stack.
