I heard the SLS is a replacement for the SLR. This came from a rep from MB Canada. It doesnt really make any sense to me. Can anyone chime in on this?

Yes, it's the replacement. Mercedes stop building the SLR last year.

me - "Do you guys actually have a shop or do you just work out of your moms driveway?"
them - "We need to go help those customers over there"


guess thats why its tuned by "SR" (stickers & rims) autogroup

I think I'm one of the only people that hates the look of the Reventon and the Gallardo.

As far as SR "tuning" the thing, do the stock rims really do much more cooling when there's a duct that you could lose a small child in right there?

wicked pics btw.

It is replacing the SLR because Mercedes and Mclaren's relationship is ending with the development of the MP4 12C

Scions coming to Canada September 2010, that was what was posted at the booth, Toyota dealers are also going to be selling scions, these select ones anyways

OpenRoad Port Moody
Jim Pattison North Shore
Jim Pattison Surrey
Langley Toyota
OpenRoad Richmond
Valley Toyota
Jim Pattison Downtown

I got a chance grab their mini brochure and all the scions come fully equipped with A/C, power windows etc... only options are basically transmission choice and colour oh and hub caps.

So the Tc is finally gonna make it over here? Not that I plan to buy one (rather take the ft86) but I always thought it was a bad move not to have them up here

Yah, Mr. Jay, The Tc, xB, and xD are all coming to Canada in September, yah it was a bad move not to have the tC come to Canada, that was technically "Toyota's" (Scions) only consumer FR and it didn't come up north. But now the FT86 toyobaru is coming, powered by subie hehe and still being sold as a Subaru in North America

That Fiat is pretty cool ^^ I prefer the looks of the SLR compared to the SLS. Maybe it'll grow on me.

If anyone wants 2 tickets (valid anyday) I got them through work and didn't end up going.
They are free if you want to pick up today in Maple Ridge, or tomorrow from 11-5 in Burnaby near metrotown while I'm at work. ($30 value i think)
