As I looked and saw that nobody made a thread on this yet, im gonna go ahead.

Last year a bunch of people complained that there was no notice on this event and many people didn't have the opportunity to go because they didn't know.

Now you know :fullofwin:

This year it will be happening September 8 & 9th (aka this weekend)

Admission is $50 for a regular pass and $100 for the VIP which entitles you for drinks/food and stuff.

Im not associated with this event in any way but i thought it would be nice to give all you guys a heads up in case you wanted to go.

Luxury Supercar Weekend - Friday, September 7, 8, 9, 2012 - VanDusen Botanical Garden, Vancouver, BC (http://luxurysupercar.com/)

Anyone know if the Bugatti will be coming back this year? Missed it last year :okay:

Whaaaat?

I just read the PDF in the media section of their site. :okay:

June 6, 2012, VANCOUVER B.C. – Luxury Supercar & Concours d’Elegance Weekend is set
to return to Vancouver’s VanDusen Botanical Garden with its largest and most valuable
collection of supercars and luxury brands to date.

On September 8th and 9th, the world’s most exotic modern and classic automobiles will
be on display at the spectacular VanDusen Botanical Garden, nestled snugly in historic
Shaughnessy.

The lush beauty of Shaughnessy’s most famous outdoor space creates a uniquely west
coast atmosphere to play host to the prestigious weekend garden party, bringing
together beautiful cars and the people who appreciate them.

2012 marks Vancouver’s Third Annual Luxury & Supercar Concours d’ Elegance Weekend,
which promises to be the social event of the season, as well as one of the most highly
anticipated events of the year for discerning auto enthusiasts, collectors and buyers.

Guests will be able to preview new 2013 models and classic collectibles from Mercedes-
Benz, BMW, Ferrari, Maserati, Rolls Royce, Lamborghini, Bentley, Aston Martin, Porsche,
Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover, Alfa Romeo, Fisker, Tesla, Spyker, Lexus, Cadillac, Lincoln and
Bugatti.

This year, Luxury Supercar & Concours d’Elegance Weekend is doubling in size to include
modern + classic motorcycles, as well as luxury boats, private jet helicopters and
Vancouver’s largest outdoor designer fashion stage.

Luxury Supercar & Concours d’Elegance Weekend will host a select group of race car
drivers, professional athletes and celebrities. In fact, last year, Luxury Supercar Weekend
was featured on Slice TV’s, The Real Housewives of Vancouver.

Tickets go on sale June 1st and start at $50 for general admission tickets and $100 for VIP
tickets, which include lunch and adult beverages. For guests booking hotel stays at
Vancouver Hotel Destination Association (VHDA) offerings, discounted tickets are
available. For complete details and tickets, please visit Luxury Supercar Weekend - Friday, September 7, 8, 9, 2012 - VanDusen Botanical Garden, Vancouver, BC (http://www.LuxurySupercar.com)

There may be some bugatti there, maybe just not the veyron. Remember there are about 100 other years of models that they may be referring to.

Have you ever seen one? I was driving to whistler and saw one drive at me going the opposite direction on the lions gate. I seriously almost ended up in the fucking ocean. It is terrifyingly amazing in person.

would have never gone if i didn't get free tickets. F40, CGT and the new vanquish were the only ones worth looking at. rest of them were just your run of the mill exotics that you see around every corner in richmond.

there was an slr722 with an N sign as well :lol

I'd like to know where 50's Merc SLs, classic Aston DB series, Ferrari Daytona, and Shelby's are hiding in Richmond, not mentioning the Enzo.

I didn't go there to see more 430, 458s, and Gallardos. you shouldn't either.

That revving was annoying as hell....

yea that's true but it was funny when some old lady stood behind it and freaked out lol. She did it twice, once behind the Ferrari and another behind the LFA lol

Fuck that the owner acted like a punk.

During roll out he was doing donuts in the grass. Basically doing a lawn job inside the garden. Also there were other cars in the general vicinity.

He tried to go around a car and lost it and spun it into a tree or pole backwards.

It hasn't rained in weeks and it was lightly drizzling so roads were slick and damp. There was still day light. It's a completely straight road.

Alcohol is served at this event.... So I will leave it at that.

Go back to my post! It's not on the post itself, you'll have to click the link :P

I suggest we talk about the F40 in it's own thread, it's too saddening to see it on here :okay: :qq: :tears:

No kidding! Only one picture of it so far?!?

Only 351 were built, and only 84 of those were LHD, which would make it the most rare car at the show. It would also be the 3rd or 4th most valuable of the cars shown on this thread. Amazingly beautiful car with a great racing heritage and incredibly rare; if it had been built by Ferrari, Mercedes, Aston, it would be worth millions.

Fmov's 212 is one of very few. The SA aperta is 1 of 80. I don't know about the other brands, I'm sure they had some super rare stuff as well though.

Great shots. Did you use some kind of filter on your camera? The colours look kind of washed out. Here's an edit I did in PS.

I somehow find that hard to believe... The grass may have been a bit slick, but it's pretty easy to move an F40 at slow speeds. Many people who saw it felt it was intentional too. :failed:

Kevlar, carbon fiber, and aluminum.

Looks like the F40 was running Pilot Sport Cups as well - definitely not the greatest rain tire.

My friend and I wanted the lanyards that you guys had at the show as when we picked up our passes they ran out of lanyards. We were not sure if you guys were giving them away but walked by the tent one last time before we left the event and the lanyards were all gone :(

That sucks, I've got an extra one lying around somewhere and might be able to swipe a KW lanyard or two (theirs has a snapon/off attachment on top of the hook) if you still need or want one :D
