Auto Salon 04

[MADGT4]

Just wondering what everyone's opinion was on this years Auto Salon?

I have plenty of pic's to post up if anyone is interested so will get round to posting them up soon.

I thought it was pretty good this year. Was an improvement on last years

Mind you, i was a little surprised at the number of, shall we say, lower than average cars there. It wasn't a huge number but more than i expected. Being a car show I would have thought there would be some sort of level a car has to be at to make it in. If im paying 18 bucks to see this, I expect a certain level of quality. But, perhaps that's just me. That said, it was still good

Pity SAU didn't make it. Maybe next time

I was talking to the Cabin guys during the show and they were alot happier with this years

show than last year's.

I must agree it was a big improvment over last year!

Also i was happy with our stand, not bragging but i was really happy with out Purple S1580, that was one hot car

[GFXman]

I have to agree, the Viva Garage display was definately one of the best there

[Chris32]

I was dissapointed

Maybe I had to greater expectation, but thought it was pretty average, there where some good cars there, but the whole event lacked a certian buzz that I associate with the shows of previous years

maybe its just me, who knows

Doubt if I would go next year, unless there are a few big name cars there. None of the big name workshops there either, but the Skylines that where there were pretty good

I'd give it a 2.5/5

I thought the "quality" at Autosalon was just fine. Cars? What cars? I must've missed them

harlequin purple 34 GTR :whackit: :boinkcar:

the avarage is improve from last year, very people car looks very nice. But then lack of other state CRAZY car coming(only myshow & Osman's shxt WRX) and local workshop highly mod car makes me a bit disappointed.

Another problem is being the drift is SO hot atm, there are PLENTY of 180, and everyone is wearing the same vetrex/BN kit. Looks like a uniform to me and wonder how can they drift after having those expensive bodykit / wide front guard? Before i go into auto salon i think they looks very nice, but not now.

i don't think i will pay $18 again next year unless i am going into it with my car.

BTW if SAU really go in like we plan, should able to win the best car club display.

And i can't find a R33 looks better than Matt inside :wassup:

I didnt think it was too bad, as said there were a lot of crappy cars (especially those there for the sound off) and I would have liked to see more in the way of trade displays.

It would have been a lot better with a few SAU cars there.

Motion seconded and passed.

purple 34 GTR is owned by the owner of adelaide

clutch services. If you go down there you will see it

in the driveway. :flamed:

[Nightcrawler]

yeah when they replaced my Exedy twin plate clutch last week (new one is excellent) I had a good look at Brenton's new baby and damn it is fine!!!
