| Official Luxury & Supercar Weekend 2017 Photo Thread
Hello,
If anyone has photos from the show, pre event or from over the weekend post them here.
Here are some from me. These should keep you entertained until the pros come in and blow us all out of the water with their images.
I'll be posting more as the weekend goes on.    
Cheers

It was pouring rain today but stopped around 1pm.
A few from today...    
I think I have to reshoot that McLaren. It did not come out sharp enough.

Great pics! 
That Pagani Huayra roadster is sick! That car is the only one in North America out of a total 100 units.
-4.5 million dollars for an Italian beauty.

Disappointing show overall. Substantial decrease in number of cars compared to last year. No FMOV, Porsche Vancouver, Bentley or Aston dealer presence. Porsche put two used 2017 cars on the lawn with locked doors.
LSW keeps jacking up the admission prices, yet the show lacks something compared to previous year. Is this really worth $75? no. Maybe $40
The classic section was also missing Mercs, BMWs and many other models.
The only interesting booth IMO was McLaren; rest of the cars could be seen in a Downtown outing on a daily basis.

There was a scratch on the Huayra in the blue carbon... Apparantly Christopher Pagani himself did it taking off the roof

Looks like there is some nice cars that belong and then some complete garbage cars.

Great pics everyone. I will always save my money and check in here to view pictures and feel like I attended. So thank you for saving me admission money. Quote:

Maybe $40 | Is the show not an event catered to the wealthy so they can sip wine, eat appys and jerk each other off about how much money they have? Not trying to talk down to the event but would that not be an accurate description of what it's all about? They don't care about us peasants as most of us could barely afford admission, let alone view a possible future car for purchase. Maybe they do that to keep the riff raff out.
I wonder if the LFA and 2017 NSX traded hands at those amounts? $490K and 184K.
Is the Pagani now worth only $4 million now that it is damaged? Ha!
Is MM Design a force to be reckoned with now since they have vehicles shown there? Quality of work improved? Or do the masses still mock them?

Like was mentioned earlier I would just hang out near the exit to see and hear the roll out.
I agree that some of the cars don't suit this type of event. I'm not sure where the organizers draw the line.
