Was that the show at the International Centre? Did you see a yellow Superbird there? Thanks.

I looked at that car that was owned by an 80 year old man near Gravenhurst. It was painted another color but Yellow is the original finish. Thanks for the pic. I usually go to that show but am still healing up after some rough dental surgery a few days ago.

Unreal, I was there and saw the car on Sat. I dont know that I saw $400k worth of car, though it was very impressive. Of course, I am sure the shop rate of Legendary is.....well, Legendary!

And they had the video from this http://www.legendarymotorcar.com/site/552 running on a flat screen in the booth.

What do you think that cost if the Charger was $400k?

I went to that show too.
This show had lots of potential, but seemed to be falling apart with regards to the type of show it's turning into.
For instance; there was way too many vendors hawking their products at the show. And if it was automotive related, I could handle that, but fudge sellers, flag sellers, "chick" stuff like crafts and of course the dozens of food vendors....ugh.
Then there was a freekin' petting zoo right in the middle of everything....ugh x2.
The tuners seemed to be taking over the place as well. An entire hall full of Jap crap, complete with booming stereos and what looked like the entire contingent of Torontos inner city youth, attitudes complete. I walked through the tuner hall and felt like a grandpa....and the half dressed girls practically snarled at me, probably because I lacked tats on my neck and had my pants pulled up.
The best displays were as you came in. And then it went downhill from that point.

On the upside...I got to meet Chuck Miller, former owner of Styline Customs in Detroit, and builder of the RTS showcars.
