Hey i worked at the motorshow for a mate i work with in the RAAF who owns his own small buisness. I was really dissapointed by the lack of quality japanese cars. Don't get me wrong i love the old school muscle infact i was raised around muscle cars(dad had a HQ monnaro and charger all original). I guess i am tired of seeing WRX's where evr i go.
What did you guys think?

It wasn't great. I mean, a reasonble condition VP Series II does not really do it for me.
Some of it was good though - especially the American muscle cars. Lack of good jap cars was disappointing, but what was there was good. Especially liked the S15 on the way in - nice.
Oh, and they had the dyno thing going on, and you had to guess the output on the first run with no info on the car. Kel was going to but a guess in, but couldn't be bothered. Turns out she was wrong anyway - by 0.6kw's.
Winner was like 15kw's off. Rather amusing.
Pretty poor though overall.
