Event Coverage: Toronto Subaru Club Hypermeeting 2012

Sep 7, 2012

When I heard the 2012 Toronto Subaru Club was hosting their annual HyperMeeting the day after Importfest I wasn’t entirely sure I would end up to attending because historically in addition to not having much of a voice, and full capture cards I’ve generally been exhausted the day after IF.

However the last Hypermeeting I had been to was in 2009 and this year my friend and previous featured ride owner Tim Neil let me know he was bringing out his Bat-Berry project so I sucked it up and headed down to Subaru Canada Headquarters.

Hit and run was the original plan but that went out the window as soon as I rounded the corner and saw the turnout. From what I’ve read online the turnout was at least 400 cars and the TSC ended up raising about $8000 for Toronto’s Ronald McDonald House which was matched by Subaru Canada.

Plus there was a BBQ, all those things amount to a pretty damn good day close to home.

legacy_black — I’ve seen this car around Mississauga a couple times, it’s awesome

forrester_sti — I’ve always really liked these Forresters

legacy_2 — Ty’s newest daily, you might remember his White STI which he sold

legacy_1 — The owner of this car used to own Ty’s car and they are modified nearly identical

innovative_bay — I didn’t get an exterior shot of this one….

nv_flared_1 — One of several cars on XXRs which have really exploded this year

innovative_front — Last saw this car from Innovative trying to set a record in Grand Bend

gdb1 — No word of a lie I am pretty sure my first bike was exactly like that

gdb2 — This car ended up winning best wheels, Zaubers that were powdercoated by JP at Stripping Technologies

gdb2a — Not a common colour that’s for sure

gdb3 — When John took a picture of this at CSCS I had no idea the colour continued under the hood

gdb_3_bay — Blindingly bright (and hard to expose)

john — Speaking of bright… here’s John Wakely’s WRX

autofestcarshow — Another bright addition promoting the Autofest Car show

bug_eye_2 — I’ll take the one on the right

gdb_cf_3 — The owner of this car obviously has a bit of a CF fetish

gdb_cf_2 — First set of local checker wheels i have seen since the ChopShop ones from a few years ago

gdb_cf_1 — Scared of Heights Support Group

hawk_eye_rotiforms — Draggin flap on Rotiform NUE’s

hawkeye — This car looks incredibly angry

versace — Really regret not taking a closer look at this Hawk Eye from Can Jam Motorsports

grb_varis_kevin — Kevin’s Varis Widebody

grb_sti_1 — I wonder if there is a (rich) person out there who owns all the TE variants…

batmobile_1 — The first debuting of the Bat Berry and somehow I only took two pictures of it

bat_mobile_2 — Still a lot of work left but he admits to being able to see the light at the end of the tunnel

outcast_frs — I completely missed this FR-S at Importfest…

outcast_frs2 — Exhaust tips are a little big but I like the car overall

out_cast_sc — Soon after this shot they took off to do their own photo shoot

outcast_a3_not_mina — After some investigation these wheels are infact not Mina’s

outcast_mazda_3_2 — Ryan’s car fresh off the Importfest floor

outcast_mazda_3 — The same of which could be said for my own car

outcast_miata — Chris builds clean cars and clearly still loves Subarus

outcast_celica_gt4 — I am honestly unsure whether or not I had seen a GT4 in person prior to HyperMeeting

outcast_celica_gt4_2 — I certainly have never seen two in one place before

outcast_celica_gt4_3 — I guess they would have these would have been direct competitors with Subaru?

outcast_gt4_2 — Would have loved to peak under the hood of either of these

I’ve got a couple more photos to edit that might make their way to the fanpage or instagram over the next few weeks.

Would love more info on that forrester! I’ve never seen a forrester with a front end like that.
If you have any extra model info could you email me please.
thanks
