Thanks for pointing out the most important parts of the new Cars on show

Anyone know if there is plenty of parking available? Is it convenient to drive your own car or better to take a taxi?

I'm also planning to go on Sunday, guess I couldn't pick a worse day, but no choice. Anyone gone in recent years and parked on a Sunday there?

I gotta say that new SLS is a thing of beauty... gull wings...**sigh** (oh and yeah the girls were hot too)

I have always driven there, but I go early!

The new SLS is nice. Wonder how much it will cost in Thailand...

The pricing was announced a couple of days ago - yours for just 24.99 Million Baht - a lot better than I expected.

It does seem cheap for Thailand. Any idea of prices in Europe/US for this car?

Added: I see that the car is supposed to go for around 200K in the US. >> http://jalopnik.com/5396522/2011-mercedes-...amg-first-drive

In the interest of non-car-owning TV members may I kindly request more photos of the pretties and less photos of the overpriced cars.

Thanks in advance.

I can see a low budget SWAT team in Pattaya using one of these

Doesnt seem to be any cupholders in the Merc - so I'll give it a miss

The SLS goes for 52 Mill. !

If that's the case, an importer is making a killing. Even at 400% tax, cost to importer is roughly 25.6 million. Nice healthly 100% markup:).

(What were you thinking?!! )

So, what about the shuttle service from Onnut BTS?

Anyone know?

I'm curious where you got that price from..

Here's a snip from the PR:

ทีเด็ดในบางกอกฯมอเตอร์โชว์ 2010 ที่ผู้เข้าชมงานไม่น่าพลาดด้วยประการทั้งปวง ต้องยกให้ สปอร์ตคาร์ปีกนกจาก เมอร์ เซเดส-เบนซ์รุ่น SLS AMG ที่อิงการออกแบบมาจากตำนานรุ่น 300 SL Gullwing กับขุมพลังวี8 6.3 ลิตร 571 แรงม้า สนนราคา 24.99 ล้านบาท

Which translated reads:

"Visitors to the 2010 Motor Show should not miss the star of the show - the Mercedes-Benz SLS-AMG, based on the legendary 300 SL Gullwing and with a 6.3L V8 producing 571 Horsepower, priced at 24.99 Million Baht."

and another:

ในส่วนของราคานั้น เมอร์เซเดส-เบนซ์ ประเทศไทย ตั้งไว้เริ่มต้น 24.99 ล้านบาท และจะเป็นเท่าไหร่นั้นขึ้นอยู่กับออพชันที่ลูกค้าเลือก

Translated:

"The price set by Mercedes-Benz Thailand starts from 24.99 Million Baht, but will depend on the options selected by customers."

I'm not suggesting you're wrong BTW - but I haven't seen anything that would suggest the PR I got those snips from was retracted or in error. Can you provide more detail - I'm sure there's at least a few people who'd like to know

Doesnt seem to be any cupholders in the Merc - so I'll give it a miss

Too funny!

For those who aren't in on the joke, AMG's are somewhat notorious for missing seemingly simple features like cup holders. There are aftermarket options available however

Ok.

Here info on the Shuttles to BITECH:

Organizers encourage visitors to attend the show via public transport. This year, the show's free shuttle bus service will be located in 3 areas: BITEC-On nut and vice versa, BITEC-Central City Bangna and vice versa, BITEC-Seacon Square and vice versa.

Does anyone know if there is parking at the BTS at On nut?

That SLS is the bees knees.....

Beautiful design - nice blend of classic and modern.... I would think that it would sell for more than 25 million THB here in Thailand, though - especially if the owners want exclusivity (that is, more exclusive than already exclusive!).

Not so sure what I think about the front end design of the Lexuses (Lexi? ). Front end of the LFA looks like an old Supra and the back end jacked from the Audi R8. The LF-Ch - design disaster IMO - I think even the fiesta looks better... But no doubt the LFA is a beast

Nice pics btw, thanks MRO.

Does anyone have any pics of the 2010 MU-7 or Thairung (equivalent) models that they can post?

Heading there early tomorrow by car with the missus.

I went a couple years back and was lucky enough to get a close park and that was around mid day!

I will happily take plenty of photos for all the readers here Of the cars ofcourse....

I think it's sad that so many new models, from big companies and small, have been hit so hard with the ugly stick!

Thats certainly not true for this 4 models in this photo. After disliking the MU7 in the beginning I get more and more the groove for it

According to the latest motoring news, the price for the SLS AMG is 24M Baht. So that's the end of that I suppose

cupholders is only for family cars. You don't drink coffee in a 25 Mill Baht car

Beautiful sexy girls and expensive luxury cars, both of which I cant afford.

Never mind, it`s look but don’t touch as usual, dream on, baby.
