Montreal Auto Show 2014

I visited the Auto Show yesterday with Jules and my mom. This was J's second car show, as he attended last year when he was 5 months old. This year, he was able to enjoy more than just the bright lights. He now knows how to say "car" and he quite enjoyed walking around the show, especially if there were little ramps where he could go up and down.

The show itself was nothing special, but I got to see in person some cars I had only seen online, like the Dodge Viper, Jaguar F-Type Coupe, Porsche 991 Turbo, BMW M3 and M4 and BMW 2-series. It was a pleasant afternoon and we all had a nice time. Here are a few photos.

Viper coupe still looks great, and a lot like the one from the 90's

Absolutely gorgeous F-Type Coupe

Jules liked the M4

... although I was never crazy about that colour

New M3 seats look amazing
This M3 sedan was breathtaking... the photo does not do it justice. I want one!

J tries out the M235i

He also seemed to quite like this bobsled

  1. Those cars look amazing! And they even had a bobsled! It seems Little Jules has also developed a liking to some cars, such as the cartoon drift car and the M4. I guess he likes the colorful ones? The concept car looks great as well. I wonder when it would see the green light to be roadworthy. Anyway, thanks for sharing!

  2. It must've been amazing to see those cars up close! With those photos, I can see that Jules inherited your love for cars, what with those big smiles and his willingness to take a photo with the different models. Haha! Kidding aside, it’s great that you’ve been using those shows as a means of family bonding, and it could be another way of finding what you want for a dream car. Thanks for sharing!
