What's on

This year’s motor show is packed with attention-grabbing vehicles and fun stuff for everyone.

The Australian International Motor Show has plenty on display this year, both inside and outside the main halls of the venue. There's something for everyone, so come down and check it out.

Supercar Central

Supercar Central brings together some of the best low-volume, hand-crafted exotics the automotive world has to offer, including the $2.1 million Koenigsegg CCX supercar from Sweden, the $1.5 million Pagani Zonda Roadster from Italy and the spectacular Bolwell Nagari sports car from Australia.

Classic Car Promenade

Compare and appreciate the old and the new side by side at the motor show. Thanks to Shannons Auctions, rare and classic cars line up just as proudly as those fresh off the production line.

Concept cars

An array of green concepts, including the Nissan Mixim will be on display – each one exploring different ways to reduce the automotive footprint on the planet. In addition, the motor show will feature cutting-edge concept designs from Suzuki and Mazda.

The motor show runs over eleven days from 5.00pm Thursday 9 October to 7.00pm Sunday 19 October 2008.
