Toronto Auto Show is nothin special...you can basically see all thats there at dealerships...Now the Detroit Auto Show had some neat things...100times better than Toronto!

isn't the toronto autoshow basically the same every year? and yeah, if you wanted to see a specific car, you could just visit a dealership..
i went the last few years and there isn't much difference...
i say save your $20 or $25 or whatever it costs... umm wasn't the price lower last year too?!

Its actually $18 for a 1 day pass. (atleast thats what the CAA guide says) Also CAA members get a coupon for $5/off

As for comparing it to Detroit, I think it was in the Star this weekend there was a tidbit of info within an article that said that the Toronto show is bigger then Detroit (since its so ****** out here)
I personally have never been to Detroit, nor do I care too. Toronto is more then enough for me personally.
My 2 cents.

I went to Detroit a few years back... It was impressive but not worth the three hour drive (in my opinion). Toronto has much more then just the cars at the dealership. Since it attained international status a few years back there are new model introductions there. Also there seems to be more and more Canadian only models that you would not see in Detroit!

Is Sunoco giving out coupons this year?

I remember in past years they had a coupon for $5 off that was also a ballot to enter a contest (last year, I think that it was for a Subaru WRX).

This is my favourite autoshow. I'm not too much into the others that come to town which have the same concept over and over again. Kits/Paint Lights. I have yet to be blown away by a new original idea, but please feel free to prove me wrogn i'd love to see something new.
