anyone going?

I'm planning on going Sunday.

 

Went on Opening day (11/2) after work since I work in Downtown Seattle. We hit up Elysian Fields before hand to spilt a few pitches of beer. It was a good show, my friend and I probably sat in about 90% of the cars that were available to sit inside. the 458, the Aventador, and the 911 GT3 looked great. The Lambo was flat black with orange calipers, but I loved the GT3 the most (Central Locking Wheels) I think you should try to go its fun to see how cheap feeling cars are even today and nice to dream in others.

 

I went a couple years back. It was awesome. I probably won't be going this year

 

My buddy went last night and said there were a few cool cars, but he was dissapointed overall. Ive never been to one so not sure how they are every year.

 

Ill be going this weekend. I used to go each year when I worked for Auto Trader. Good times.

 

Me and my friend just had a good time going through the entire show and being critical on every cars quality/ergonomics (as if we were Top Gear Presenters finding all the good & bad about the cars) It helped that while at Elysian Fields, the atmosphere was popping with drunken pre-game Sounders fans running around everywhere.

You just can't go to one of these and expect to see all these cars that you want to drool over, so you need to make it fun somehow. But I had free tickets for us too, so that helps.

 

I went last year and wasn't impressed, all the same cars that were out today. But I get a free ticket every year, so ill be going on sat

 

I could go for free but just haven't had the time to go up the last few years.

 

agreed, the show has always been meh when I've gone. Cars that are pretty much out already. Certainly doesn't help that the parking garages around here are stacked.

 

i just got back from the show. my favorites were the aston martin rapide ,stickered at 220,000 at that very sexy gt3, and whatever was downstairs looking like an aston martin by the same designer as aston martin, i just can't remember the name. whatever it was, it was about 100g's less and ran on gas, electricity, and solar power.

sweet show for my first show.

That would be the Fisker.

I went as well, kind of meh as others have said. The cars that made it worth it were the Lambo Aventador (amazing), R8 Convertible, 458 Italia, and that GT3. Was disappointed there wasn't an LFA but I didn't look on the car list on the website beforehand.

Taken from website

• Ferrari 458 Italia
• Porsche 911 GTS
• Jaguar XKR-S
• 2012 Boxster Black Edition
• Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster
• Lamborghini Aventador LP700
• Maserati GranTurismo

• Aston Martin Virage
• Ferrari California
• Rolls-Royce Ghost
• 2012 Fisker Karma

There's also the Corvette ZR1 which looks awesome in person as well

 

There was a few cool cars there, the aventador, new gt3, the fiskar. Bt other than that, I wouldn't pay money to get in.. I was hoping the lfa, and scion fr-s/ft-86 was going to be there. I was disapointed..
