Saw the tigra at the dealer's today, not worth it for the money IMO,

The boot space is small, I sort of like but don't like how the boot closes. It uses hydraulics, which I like but I don't like that you have to hold it in till it full closes, what's up with that?

because they only go every second year

Rolls Royce wont be there either because last year it cost them $500,000 just to display one car there

Proton also won't be appearing...i think u can guess why
(although after their new sponsorship deal with Wests Tigers this makes little sense in my mind)

Maybach is going to be there considering theyve only sold like 3 cars in aus.

Maybach is a Daimler Chrysler Product. The will be close by the benz stand .

V12 out of the SL65AMG *Drools*

HSV e-mailed me today say they export the GTO to the UK under the Vauxhall Banner. They are Tight Lipped about the VXR Advert on there site.

Im guessing the Motorshow will be be where the Annocement will take place if there is going to be one. It makes sence that we are a few days way from it and the advert pops up on there site.

Dont be so sure about that Proton have new products coming to oz. Repacement for the Satria GTi is ment to be in Developement and its ment to have impressive power out put according to a Article in a Sat or Sunday motoring section of a Sydney Paper 6 months ago.
