I'll be there in a couple if hours from now

back from the expo here's my take on it.





The obvious one that everyone took a picture of ... Chevy Camaro ... not much to talk about it hough



this is where I actually started the expo from ... I almost missed it ... coz when I got there ... they had stopped the registrations and I was just lucky enough to find two passes given to me by someone coming out of the expo who had a few unused passes. Anyway ... there were quite a few mean looking trucks ... I sure do hope these come to India sometime soon.




I don't know if its 4WD... if it is ... then I'd love to have it.




This is the small car that Honda is launching in India ... I guess JD has talked about it enough so I wont talk about it at all ... but the design looks pretty cool. if we only had the roads to match it.




See ... didnt I say that the design is cool ?





the much talked about CRZ ... again a very very interesting concept vehical




from another angle....




The famed toyota stall .... I have to admit ... they might not have had the best looking cars ... but they definitely had the best looking babes in all ridiculous (codename sexy) costumes.... I hoped to see some leather clad babes at the harley stall ... but NO they were at TOYOTA



The personal mobility vehical ... iDrive ... Top gear has done a detailed review on this .... do check it out




and here we are at harley .... not much to talk about ... everything to drool about




I loved the hippy colors on this bike










A bikers Wet dream





I still dont understand how do they get these bikes to shine so well ... not even showroom cars have that shine




Though this is also a repost ... but the bike deserves a thread for itself




In its full glory






There was a huge huge huge que for getting into the Audi stall .... I had to wait for about 30 minutes to get in there .... but it was well worth the wait... see the next set of pics to understand why









now you get the idea ?? ... touch ... feel ... peek in ... sit inside... ask about .... this was the BESSSSSSSSSSSSSTTTT stall at the whole expo




For all those who are wondering who is this young chap with the R8 .... thats my boy with his dream car.




And The beast within....



I also visited BMW, Merc, Tata (Jag and Range Rover/Land Rover) Chevy ... Hero Honda, Honda bikes, some more EVs, JBL and the other usual stuff .... but nothing special to mention about them ... got to see what I expected ... girls without any meat anywhere ... and stuff thats focused on the value for money "Indian" market..... yeah whatever ... Gave a complete miss to Suzuki and Hyundai as I didnt expect anything to be there .... the biggest disappointments were BMW and Merc ...... The biggest surprise was Chevy ... those guys are spending money in making a brand image.

I've made a major decision at the venue ... I'll be buying an Audi TT within 3 years ... come what may. I've simply fallen in love with it...

To all those who missed it .... Honestly ... it was worth a trip

I made a big mistake by fixing the last day for visiting auto expo this time, i had 4 media passes and i thought it will be fun watching and taking pics of those cars (with 3 more friends) but today ppl outside were selling like 2 passes for 150rs and that really pissed me off. (i know it is good for normal ppl but then there was no use of having your own passes lol) Even at 11:30am it was like normal timing and it really disappointed me but whatever it was my mistake. Will never ever go on last day :/

Nice photographs. Many of them not seen on other "car" or "bike" forums. Thanks for sharing.

[JD666]

maxy maruti suzuki was worth visiting. But none the less you found your satisfaction with Audi....

the first harley pic that you have put up is incidentally the cheapest harley available here, around 7.2 lakhs on road. Fingers crossed, ill have it in my parking lot in a year or so!

Recently Punjab Kesri of Internet aka rediff.com has a news that Chinese stalls had counterfeit Bosch high beam lights?

Any expert comments from people who actually saw Chinese' thakela maal?

[MaxAxe]

The Chinese had a street market ... selling stuff and getting out of there as soon as they can.... at 6 PM they had already sold most of what they had and left

[RajaPraveen]

Every time i see that vintage Audi i just wonder how people many decades ago have enjoyed the pinnacle of automobile design.

[JD666]
