Lamborghini

It's said that if there is one thing that is constant in this world it's change and that truism couldn't apply more aptly to the evolution of the Canadian Sport Compact Series over the past two...

Drew a blank this week for a standard Theme Tuesday, so I decided to do a little hard drive 'closet cleaning'. As you can imagine I save a lot of photos during my travels through the internet; some...

A few weeks ago Importfest hosted a 'Mega Meet' --aka a show and shine-- at Sherway Nissan is Mississauga. The event was open to all make and model of vehicles with speciality awards reserved for Nissan entrants. Dealership shindigs are often hit or miss but this one was pretty solid offering up a variety of cars from classics all the way to big money exotics. In addition to cars there were a few food vendors, the Grey Cup, a handful of cheerleaders, and a couple Toronto Argonaut players.

By now I'm sure many of you have already been inundated with Tokyo Auto Salon coverage from various other online media sources as it seems like everyone was at TAS this year checking out the latest and greatest Japan has to offer. Everyone except myself of course, but thanks to the great people over at Nextmod I've got some excellent TAS coverage to share here.

I thought about doing another women of SEMA Theme Tuesday for 2012 but as it turns out I only took about six photos of models this year four of which sucked. That means it's time to fall back to an old favourite, 'Classy Car Models'.

Since the 'Drifting Gif' Theme Tuesday I've had a bumpercrop of various automotive gifs floating around on my hard drive and today I am going to post all of those that are not racing related. You will probably have to be a little patient and let this one load a minute. I'm sure posting a page of only gifs is not exactly on the list of things to do to decrease page load times.

I arrived in the Bloor-Yorkville area around 9:30pm and walked to the Park Hyatt hotel, where I believe the Gumballer’s were spending the night. Three streets had been shut down across from the hotel to allow a U-shaped row for the Gumball cars to park and rev their engines for the crowd. Their cars were fenced off from the public, and rightfully so – the place was packed.

On Sunday I saw something that made me think I should do another 'Dat Ass' Theme Tuesday post and, foolishly, I didn't save it in the hopes I would remember it when the time came to put the post together. No such luck.

I'll be concluding the 2012 Mega Speed coverage today with photos of the Imports, Euros, and Exotics along with a few of the exhibitors booths that were in the back hall of the International center. This post is a little tail heavy clocking in at about 50 or so photos so if you are on your phone maybe save this for when you can grab some wifi.

Time again to do a pretty straight forward Theme Tuesday post, the kind you could find on any other blog. Sorry this is not as creative as some of the previous ones. I'm not even sure you guys will like it.... /sarcasm Warning: Potentially NSFW unless maybe you work at the Brass Rail or just DGAF.

I'll admit that even though I spent a lot of my early years as a car enthusiast staring at Countach posters on my wall, pushing Countach die casts around my house, and playing with the Tyco Cliffhangers Countach slot car set I knew surprisingly little about them technically growing up. While I've learned more about them as I aged until recently I had no idea that the Lamborghini factory may have considered production turbo versions.

Here is the rest of the Performance World coverage I was hoping to have up yesterday before the day spiraled wildly out of control. There are enough pictures in this post to warrant two but I decided to just get them all up at once instead of having you guys wait even longer. The mini trucks and classics make up most of today's post with a few random images dropped in. If you thought Performance World this year was lacking that just means you didn't spend enough time in the vast section of classics.
