I went because I thought it was a spy convention, probably with a Kingsman, but no,
CIAS is not a show about the Central Intelligence Agency. Instead it is a big, crowded Auto Mall with a splash of concept cars, a little bit of the classics and a touch of new product model launches.
Taking up the entire Metro Toronto Convention Centre from February 13 to 22, this show is so big that they even have a shuttle bus running between the north and south buildings. I would be tempted to forget about the bus and ask for a test ride in something fancy and if it was electric I could probably drive it inside and shave off a bit of the travel time.
IndyCar Driver James Hinchliffe
Actually the place is big enough they should have set up a racing oval and let people really take a test spin. Speaking of racing, IndyCar Series driver James Hinchcliffe made an appearance at the show - along with one of his cars. James will return to town for the
June 12-14, 2015 Honda Indy Toronto race.
