Melbourne Motor Show

Quite surprised there isn't a thread. I'm sure there's a reason, but I looked thoroughly...
Anyway, who's going? What's gunna be there? It will be my first motor show, I'll finally get the chance to see the Ferraris and Lamborghinis I've never seen before. Should be great!

I think the motor show's part of the TGWpE2 trip, so i guess most of the discussion so far's been there.

...TGWpE2? That's one hell of an acronym. What's it for?

The greatest weekend possible ever II or something along those lines.

I think everyone will be there though there isn't much details on times, meeting places though will probably be sorted soon when people work out there accomadation and travelling arrangements.

Oh that thread. Well what time are you guys going up to the show? I'll look out for a bunch of guys stuffing each other into the back of cars...and taking photos of seagulls if I remember last years thread correctly. And some guy in a black suite checking a trash can.

yeah well, the GT3RS is at the gold coast at the porsche club meeting sonn apparently, can't wait to see it. plus, porsche is the featured marque at Phillip island this year, so they have a museum stand there with a bunch of classic racers and maybe new releases.
