The British Columbia Thread!

I will be there on AUG 2nd.......what time does it start?

 

10am - 4pm

And for those reading this who don't know where this event is, its at the Italian Cultural Centre, at the corner of Grandview Hwy & Slocan St. A free show both for participants and spectators. There'll be food, gelato, wine and music... And of course, Italian cars! If I remember correctly, both the Lamborghini and Ferrari dealerships will have displays.

 

will it be as big as the father's day car show 2 months ago?

 

see you there peter!

 

Crap, I have to work on Monday, or I would drive up in the 328! What is a "civic holiday" anyway??

Oh, back on topic...silver lambo gallardo at Robson and Burrard....heading southbound on Burrard on Saturday evening, July 24th.

 

saw my first conti gt heading south on granville

 

Had a little fun with a Black Gallardo on the Burrard bridge yesterday, unfortunately I was in the Mini so I couldn't keep up.

 

Saw a SL500 in Dawson city in the yukon that is one Sweeeet ride

 

The new SL? Yeah they are sweet. There are tonnes of them around. Here in Toronto we use them as paper weights and door wedges.

;-)

 

Spotted 1 silver 360 coupe and 1 metallic blue 360 spider driving by a young lady this evening on Alexander Road in Richmond

 

Amazing! She can drive two cars at the same time....I would have like to have seen that....

 

Todd, I won't be there, I'll be busy putting my car back together... Lots of work still to go.

tsang85, not as big as the Father's Day show, but getting bigger every year.

Mr. Handa, Aug. 2nd is B.C. Day...

 

It is great to know there are so many nice cars in Vancouver, the city I spent a few year in. Just curious has anyone seen F50 in Vancouver? Is it possible to import a 1996 F50 into Canada?

 

I think the only supercars are in eastern Canada. I know there was an f40 for sale in alberta and there are 3-4 enzo's in Ontario. BC has none of these. So no F50's not even remotley local.. And it is possible if you the money..

 

Don't be too hard on Vancouver, there's alot of nice cars there! Weissach is delivering a ton of new Lambos! That's not super enough?! There's atleast a couple F50s out east, although a friend of mine swears up and down he saw one in Vancouver a couple years ago. I don't know for sure though, he's a little sketchy on his car identifying.

BTW, there were 7 Enzos sold through FoO and (I think) 3 through FoQ. And the F40 in Calgary was never really for sale, just "advertised" for publicity... I guess it worked!

 

The guy had bought it over from germany rember I this outpost Mitas are though extoic

 

Went to the Italian exotic car show today, and spotted 10+ Ferrari, 1 lambo replica and 1 Ferrari 250 GTO replica. Whoelse went today?

 

I went for a short period of time. I was glad to see the 360 CS from Ferrari Maserati of Vancouver as well as the red 550 owned by a nice gentleman.

IMO, it takes balls to show up at an italian car show with a Diablo replica and puting it for sale as well. I can't stand that!

 

I was there for a bit.... to many "know it alls" were there.......It was funny

 

I took the kids, was not too bad the challenge was nice. Was that lambo seroiusly a replica? He did a really good job..no wonder he covered he engine compartment..

 

There really should be a law against replica cars. Go big or go home.

 

I don't think he covered it....(you might be refering to the roof that gets stored on the back when not in use)
