Here are some of the pictures I took from our local event here in Toronto, Ontario. It was the annual ImportFest event that was held at the old Downsview Airport. May 10th and 11th 2008.

Enjoy the pics and if you wanna see more, follow the link at the bottom...

This probably doesn't belong in here...

Some of the cars are pretty nice, some are horrible.. that green Sky is the latter.

 

I didn't know the Saturn Sky was an import.

Maybe it's just me, but the import car shows are full of even more cliches than muscle car shows.

Wild paint, stickers and graphics? Check
Unnecessary carbon fiber pieces everywhere? Check
Girl (usually Asian) with big ***** posing next to/on the hood of a car? Check.....

 

If you're in Canada, it's an import.

 

If you're in Canada, almost everything is an import.

"Import" to me implies anything not GM/Ford/Chrysler. If you want to get technical, I suppose it really is anything not built in Canada, which again, would be 95%+ of the automotive market.

 

Do not want

 

Europe's Opel, manufactures in the USA. Debatable whether it's an import, but it began its life as such.

On the other hand, what about "imports" made in north america, such as Accords?

The whole import thing no longer means what it used to.

 

There are a number of domestics, too, including a Cavalier/Cobalt, a pimped out Cadillac, and a Beretta with Cadillac logo on its front grille... Weird.
