Bloor Yorkville Auto Show

Here is a quick photo tour of the Bloor Yorkville Auto Show from this summer. This has got to be one of the nicest and most high class Auto Shows I went to all year. And trust me, I go to a lot of Auto Shows. Bloor Yorkville is the most prestigous shopping area in Toronto and perhaps even Canada. It is home to the worlds most high end retailers which you will see in the background of many of the shots here. This is a place of elegance and refinement. And the area that is the face of Toronto to the world. Enjoy the photos and make sure that if you didn't catch the show this year, you get there for next!
