CarAdvice at the Melbourne International Motor Show
February 26, 2009 by Matt Brogan
The entire CarAdvice team will be at the Melbourne International Motor Show from a very early 7am tomorrow to bring you the most complete coverage of the event possible.
We’ll be there first as new cars are unveiled, as inside news (and gossip) breaks, to bring you up close and personal photos of all the stuff you want to see, as well as our on the spot podcasts and chats with manufacturer representatives through out the day.
The Melbourne International Motor Show opens to the public tomorrow evening from 5pm at the Melbourne Exhibition Centre.

Hey guys, why don’t you throw a couple of tickets into the prizes for the bushfire appeal that you have on Ebay
what is the orange car above – is it the hyundai coupe?……..for those of you who actually saw the car behind the lovely lady :-)
Happy to say [those of you that have been following the saga!! lol] that C/A came through and supplied me a free-ticket as negotiated.They kept their word 100%
Once again thanks to Alborz and his team.
Unfortunatly NOT for the press-only day [you need accreditation] so its one of the *normal* public days but hey better than a burnt stick in the eye!!
Never went last year, and wont be on next year, only in Sydney so need to go if your got a pulse.
Might even go the 2nd time if its good, in the market for a new chariot so important for me anyway.
See you all there!
Cheers

You lucky bastards. No motor show for us in Brisbane :( Make sure you take LOTS of photos.
hal, yes it looks to be a variant of the hyundai geneisis coupe and quite a nice looking one at that!
Just a little request, I am going to go see the show this Sunday or next Saturday and I dont want you to spoil the suprise of seeing what is there so could you maybe post a link on your page to a page were you have all you MIMS info and pics insted of uploading them to the main page =) Greatly apprciated if you could
Hjalle: Can I suggest you not visit CarAdvice for a few days?
If the coverage is as good as previous Sydney and Melbourne I might stay home from work tomorrow and continually click refresh – looking forward to it guys!
Yes, some detailed info on the next gen Mazda3 MPS would be greatly appreciated if you could please :)
Falcadore, the MPS won’t be here until next week, so don’t fret if the updates from CA don’t come tomorrow. :)
Just got back enjoyed it.
Pity some of the brands where not present:
Volvo, M.Benz, AstonMartin, Ferrari, AlfaRomeo, Lancia, Fiat, Citroen, Proton, Elfin, RollsRoyce, Maserati
Don’t think i missed any in that list?
Highlight was the VW stand, meeting and chating with the designer Frank Bruse, a gentleman!
The free gelato on the VW stand was great too.
Finally, thanks again to Alborz for coming through
Cheers

Elfin were out in the area where the Shannon vehicles were. I was glad to see all the ex Marysville Museum cars there as i thought they may have been toasted in the busfire.
