I wonder if we'll ever get one in Canada, they're huge in Asia and first one opened recently in Cali. From pictures I've seen, this store would be like heaven, not only do they carry everything, but it's on display in their enormous showroom. Think of home depot for car audio and performance parts, check out site.

With our luck, we'll never see one of these in our country, ahh well we can dream about it. What do u guys think?

With people storing their cars 6 months of the year, snow and salt, no auto related business will bloom in Toronto.

that's awesome, how long ago did it actually open? Nova_Dust I fully understand what ur sayin and agree, which is why I don't think we'll ever get one, but just cuz people's cars aren't driven in the wintertime, doesn't mean they're untouched, alot of people do the majority of their work on the car while it's not being driven, that way no inconvenience in the summer when you actually want to drive the car.

Car needs to be in use in order to consume parts. i.e. tires, engine oil, parts replacement because when a car is in motion, there is always accidents involved and accident meants new parts, and that equals to business.

Winter beaters deserve next to none attention. The only thing that goes into beaters is gasolines. That applies to most people.

Weather doesn't really play that much of a factor. It is the mentality of how people treat their cars.

This is one more reason I'm looking forward to moving out west (projected time: Summer '07). Toronto might not get one, but Vancouver could very well be a possibility.

Have you actually heard that vancouver might be getting one, or is that just wishful thinking on your part?
