It's that time of year again, who's going?

Any cars to look out for?

I hope they bring an M2 so I can dream and drool over it. Otherwise I'll check out every car on the floor as I do every year and probably go two days.

I should be working it!

Yay, free tickets.

I am hoping the new Ford Raptor and Toyota Warrior concept is there, I really want to get a look at them in person.

For cars I definitely want to check out the new Lexus LC500 and new M2. I hope the Fiat 124 is going to be there too, but that might be too much to hope for. With Scion being phased out, I wonder if we will see the FRS rebadged as the Toyota GT86?

You mean Nissan Titan Warrior?

Toyota has that new bad arse TRD front end on the Tundra though.

And Scion/Toyota said it will just get called "Toyota FR-S".

Focus RS for me. And I'd like to check out the new F-150's up close as well. Haven't been to a dealer yet.

Tacoma TRD Pro, Mustang GT350 and Ford GT. Doubtful that any of them will be there.

You mean you haven't seen one of the dozen around town that swapped their badges?

It's always a good time to go and look at everything.

The Kia booth guy last year really wanted me to buy an Optima.

Every year I sit in almost every vehicle and pick apart the interiors and design in front of the sales people, I love crushing their enthusiasm for each brand :P

I always love seeing which manufacturer's / dealers give me the time of day.

Was very impressed with porsche last year, guy game me some quality time with a Macan Turbo which was originally locked. MB was guy didn't know what an AMG was and pushed me away to talk to an asian family shopping for a B. LR is always a bunch of douche canoes which sucks because I them to much. Ford wouldn't let me sit in a mustang

Good times at the Calgary Auto Show

Porsche guys are the friendliest car guys you can meet. Most of them are true enthusiasts. Also, there's a few beyond members that work there.

Yup, from the first time I went into that dealership they've been nothing but awesome to me. If they were in a better location I'd go more often just to shoot the shit.
