I want to go, but can only make it in the earlier part of the day. Have a family dinner @ 5:30.
When were you thinking of going?

Earlier for sure. Probably right when it opens (12pm). I may be by myself or a buddy of mine might come also. Let me know if you wanna meet up before hand.

[1flycdnM3]

I am keeping all the pics from the lingerie show to myself hahahaha! But seriously, after 8pm is when the show really takes off, so I will be there! haven't been for about 3 years now, but last time there was a wet t-shirt contest and DAYUM if you missed that and left early, wow i feel sorry for you :)

we put pics up in the "members only" section of TAC hahahaha!

[FNKYSHT]

Def not worth the admission ! and if memory serves me right only 3 or 4 Mazdas reprezentin :(

[S.F.W.]

yeah, show itself wasn't great. But I primarily went to pick up the compustar deal from Audioheaven.

[matt9]

I couldn't believe how few Mazda's there. I think I saw one Mazda 3, like 5 protege's and a couple other cars.

[eqlso]

The only mz3 I saw there was the turboed grey hatch. I thought it would be a little bigger than just that one room.

[1flycdnM3]

yeah i had a good time, but agreed not worth the price of admission, but atleast Peter made it worthwhile (thanks bud) and i took alot of pics but it was so dark that it's not worth showing most of them. my camera isnt the greatest either, but the one's i do have i will post shortly in the multimedia section.

I think you guys will like them *wink*

[1flycdnM3]

that is MignightFXGT (John) and yes i agree the Mazda representation was VERY weak indeed. I would have been denied entry though and too rich for my blood for entry but maybe next year.

[midnightfxgt]

Just getting home... wow... busy day with a wedding and all to get to!

Show was OK.. good time. Very very similar to last year. Most clubs were grouped in the same locations and everything.

[Mafty]

yea, it was ok, 25 is kinda steep for entrance. not really diggin the large amount of old men with D-SLR creepin on the girls, i dont think i saw any of them take pictures of cars, just run to where any girl was. the turnout for people looked extremely low, not sure if they would even break even with that low of a turnout.

[S.F.W.]

yea, it was ok, 25 is kinda steep for entrance.
I bought my ticket online on Friday, $16. Definitely not a $25 value.

Buy it in advance for $16! much better deal ;) The turnout was pretty decent, larger than last year at the MTCC

the steep entrance is the main reason why i didnt go.

[Slipstream]

show wasnt the greatest just went to see peter, i went at around 10pm but i got free admissions! muhahah some valet guy came up to me and my friends and gave us 4 tickets he was holding for someone but they were a no show, so i guess i cant complain audio heaven was having great deals too! kinda pissed now knowing how much i could have got my tints for >_<

[All-Star]

Hey guys!

If it's any +1 for TM3 or Mazda3's in general, yours truly picked up models Steph Ly and Naomi Sayo from the airport on Friday. :) To quote them, "Wow, it's great to have someone pick us up on time! Usually we're waiting for an hour or so." :chuckle

I drove them to their hotel, checked in, drove to Eaton Centre, had lunch, went clothes shopping and then back to the hotel. Really, I'm proud of the car lol. It hauled their heavy luggage while riding smooth and the cabin temp was just right. Props to Audio Heaven (http://www.audioheaven.ca/) as the tints re-assured their privacy (as they joked about a few passer-by's).

Anyway, Friday was "my" Importfest. I saw the true side of these models. Steph is a good person...Naomi...well....you might be able to talk to her if she misplaces her Blackberry. Oh, and that purple dress that Steph's wearing in this thread (http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/showpost.php?p=335447&postcount=1), I saw her try that on and was like "Dayumn!" :pop
