Who went? Last minute decision and the show moved to the heated underground space. Just speechless.

F40, F50, LaFerrari, P1, 918, GT3RS, 458 Speciale, Aventadors, torfeo race Gallardo.

So sick. Seeing the hypercars and listening to the LaFerrari was like a cartoon. Blown away.

Lol. Wtf was that thing doing there. Good value for a top down cruiser I guess haha.

For me the speciale and gt3rs just stole the show. I mean hypercars are gross, but something so awesome about a pure car aimed at one purpose.

It's easy bro. You just need a one off 918 weissach and you'll get an allocation lol.

Wonder if that guy will add a GT4 to his collection - because you know - he can.

GT3RS is one of my favourites, you know a Working Mans Supercar ;)

I'm not trying to be the asshole that criticizes a car I could never ever afford, but I'm not a fan of the colour choice in terms of the P1. Most of those cars in that corner could be seen at Euro C&C this past Tuesday, this was a fun event though.

This is a good place to start, link (http://members.shaw.ca/calgarycc/), although it appears that this show isn't listed in the big PDF document but it does show under the 'September' link on the regular web page. PDF document is published early on and some shows were probably missed due to one reason or another.

What is quite something is that this is the 30th year that these guys have produced this cruise calendar - that's dedication.

Follow the different car clubs on Instagram or some have a calendar of events up on their website.

While they hold lots of private events, both the local Ferrari and Porsche clubs are pretty active in Public events like this one and a handful of others every summer.

Anyone know if this is the first time in Canada, perhaps North America where these cars were under the same roof?

Would be only a couple times they've been together let alone a F40 in the back corner lol.

Define "under one roof". Head down to Monterey for some of the events down there and you'll see all this and much much more.

As for photos, because it was moved into the parkade it was tough, at least for the average dude, some of the guys with superior equipment and skills probably got some good shots.

How long until Revenue Canada starts seizing their assets for tax fraud/evasion/whatever they're classifying it as?

Never? Since they are doing nothing wrong, you don't need to find a reason to hate and be jealous because someone is doing better than you.

Go back to driving your GAY kit car.

There's already a thread about that topic, how about we keep the bitter jealousy in that thread and leave this one to just talk about cool cars :dunno:

That's how I feel right. Oh wow a new huracan.

Then I actually see it, and pick apart details. The hypercars are unbelievable. Just unreal. For example the hydraulics on the P1's air brake are ultra heavy duty. The owner was able to have it in "attack" mode parked. Guess it takes some tinkering with the system to do that.

I'm a function and form guy, and seeing the diffusers and splitters and how they're shaped along with the lines from wind tunnel testing is just pure sex.

I've haven't felt this way about cars in a while. Just needed to reacquaint myself with the purity of true machines.

Really wish I didn't miss this show this year. Was excellent last year and the few pictures I've seen from this year make it look even better!

Some of these newer cars like the 918 and LA dont excite me very much. To me they're not terribly good looking? :dunno:

Crappy pictures from my phone, but better than nothing I suppose. I still maintain that the F40 is the best looking car around! :drool:
