Young professionals of Montreal, start and rev up your engines if you already haven’t! There are only five days left to check out Montreal’s biggest car show, celebrating their 45th edition.
Besides being able to feast your eyes on some of the world’s sleekest machines, here are a few special things to expect when you attend: A series of American, as well as a record of Canadian, unveilings and premiers filled with the hottest innovations in cars ready for our feedback; and some of the top exotic players in the car game including McLaren, Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Ferrari, Maserati, Fisker, Porsche, Rolls Royce, Bentley and more…a visual dream come true.
Is the old school way your preference? Then you will be happy about the presence of Centennial Avenue presented by Auto Hebdo, which will allow you and your friends to walk through and relive 100 years of history. Filled with 10 iconic cars, each representing their decade and providing full nostalgia with a real-life viewing of what cars from the Boardwalk Empire and Gangster Squad days were like.
If winning is what you are after, the Auto Show’s much anticipated annual contest will once again give a few lucky winners the chance to walk away with notable gifts, including a Suzuki Grand Vitara JLX-L. You’re just in time as the draw will take place on Sunday, January 27, 2013 – so you can still enter!
We all have the need for speed and what better way to try new cars on the market than, well, to sit in one, turn the key and start the engine. The EV Road Tests by CAA Québec in partnership with the Montreal Auto Show are offering the opportunity to guests to drive and really feel out the electric cars. Since they are the way of the future, you can test out and see if it’s something that might be part of yours; after all, we young professionals should strive to help the environment anyway we can.
Have babies? No worries, the Kia Childcare Centre will once again be made available to amuse young ones… and allow you parents to enjoy a well-deserved break.
Besides being fun and games, the Montreal Auto Show also believes in giving back and allowing us to participate very easily. In collaboration with Héma Quebec and CTV Montreal, there will be a blood drive organized and held at the Grande Place of Complexe Desjardins, from the 21st to Friday, January 25… so head over and help out, a little prick of a needle wont ruin your day and just might make someone else’s.
If you are truly too swamped to step out anywhere but the office door and your residence, you can check out their YouTube channel to stay updated and a little jealous that the rest of us are going to be enjoying this.
