For those who are interested, at teh Vancouver Auto Show, there will be:

1) SPYKER

2) GT500 KR

3) AJR's GTR w/ CF roof

4) IS-F

5) SR's matte black R8


PLUS...



Aston Martin

DB9
Ranked as one of the world's great GTs', the new model gets tweaked in a number of areas to keep it great. List (for the Volante model) $208,000

DBS
Star of the latest Bond movie, "Quantum of Solace" - nuff said! List $290,000

Rapide
Not due here until the end of 2009, a Canadian appearance is unlikely. Still, this 6 litre V-12 has been described as the world's most beautiful four door sexiest sedan - ever! Estimated List $235,000

Vantage
A make-over for 2009 gives this "Porsche Killer" some new kick! List for the Roadster model is approximately $145,000
Bentley

Arnage T Final Series
The flagship of the Bentley sedan line-up is still one of the greatest most elegant high performance luxury sedans on the planet! List $373,000

Azure
This delightful playboy ragtop of the Bentley line enjoys a spectacular finish with surprisingly nimble and agile handling. List is $462,000

Brooklands
Okay, you aren't likely to see this at the 2009 Auto Show - they are all sold out - but what a dream car for $469,000. A coupe from the old school - massively engineered, but still posts a 0-60 in 5.0 seconds

Flying Spur Speed
Voted "Best New Performance Sedan" in the Dupont registry, the Flying Spur boasts a 6.0 litre W-12 engine and comes with 20" alloy wheels. List $273,000

Continental GT Speed
One of the fastest Bentleys at over 300KPH top speed and a 0-60 in 4.3 seconds List $280,000
Ferrari

F430
This mid-engined projectile still sets the benchmark as the world's most useable supercar and is often mentioned as the best all round Ferrari. List for the "Scuderia" $310,000

599 GTB Fiorano
With an awesome Enzo based 6.0 litre V-12, this is the bad boy of the Ferrari line-up, yet can be surprisingly civil at the same time. List $325,000

612 Scaglietti
One of the great driving Ferraris and one of its finest Grand Turismos, the Scaglietti is intentionally understated - if that's possible with a Ferrari. List $314,000.

California
The most ground-breaking Ferrari since the Dino. The most exciting since the Enzo. The most technically advanced - ever. It's also the first ever mid-front Ferrari. List is estimated $280,000
Lamborghini

Murciélago LP460 Versace
Yes, this is a pastel white Murciélago 6.5 litre, V-12 LP460 Roadster with the Versace Greek god motif on the lower part of the door. Very haut couture! List $420,000

Murciélago LP640 Roadster
The Lamborghini Murciélago LP640 is one of the fastest automobiles on the planet, with eye blink-fast acceleration and a top speed in excess of 200 mph. List starts at $490,000
Lotus

Elise SC
This is still the closest thing you can get to driving a street legal racecar. It's comparative bargain price is lengendary. List is only $62,000

Evora
This 2+2 projectile - named after a city in Portugal - is a striking welcome addition to the Lotus line-up. Bad news is it won't be here until late 09. Estimated list is under $100,000
Maserati

Gran Turismo S
This is the latest and greatest version of the stunning Gran Turismo! List $160,000

Quattroporte S
This new version has blossomed into the magnifico ultra luxurysedan it deserved to be. List $150,000

Hand Wash

BTW, where do you guys take your car for a hand wash? I hear that Pit Lane located right besides Canadian Superstore on #3 Road is pretty good. Comments or suggestions?

If i want someone to hand wash my car, i usually go to the one behind pit lane.

Most of the time i do it myself at the self dog/car wash on garden city and alderbridge. it only costs $4!!!

Yes, I do hand wash my cars myself, but sometimes when it gets really dirty I rather bring it to a professional hand wash outfit. Getting lazy I guess.
