BC A buddy went to the Vancouver Auto Show

They had some awesome cars apparently. Here is what he had to say about it:

- Good news for Canadians, Scion is coming, and their line up is going to consist of the xB, xD, and the tC. Also, their Fuse concept car is apparently going to get worked to fruition, so we will finally have a Toyota product that competes in the compact sporty car market.
- To add, Spyker is also now available in Canada
- As for cars this year, I was actually kinda surprised with the Dodge line up, they had almost every new vehicle, along with the Viper and the EV concept. I must say, the Challenger has a nice feel to it, far better than the Charger. The gearshift feels good man.
- Hyundai Genesis. WOW. That is all. No really, very impressed with the sedan, it was marvelously comfy, had great trim, the door felt solid, I would say its about time. The coupe looked good too, albeit made to be more sporty, but Infinity speakers and v-6 for 30 grand = win.
- Supercars section was pretty lame, only four cars, but the tuned Murcielago upstairs made up for that. The GT-R was nice too, cool to be up and close with it.

Some pictures:

Never thought I would see this coming!

I wonder what front bumper that is? It isn't an ITA or IT7
