Garry Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 mind you , you can buy a lot of house for the price of a good car in Thailand!! Very true words, our house cost about $5,000 more than our SUV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderpuff Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Went for a few hours. Agree that car park was a nightmare. These pictures are from the Car Fi & accessories tent. MIRAGE had a huge display as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comehome Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 (edited) Hi! Moderators, can you make a sticky or put some information in about transportations so that people can find it easy, please? There are Shuttle service from BTS Onnut to Bitech. There is no parking at BTS Onnut. You can park at Tesco Lotus, just by the Onnut BTS station. You are allowed to park there for 3 hours and after that the fee is 50 baht/hour. I am not sure Tesco Lotus will be so happy but at least it is an option. There is also a piece of land that looks like a parking lot, on the left side about 10-20 meters in on the same soi as My Condo, B.U Place. Just to the left on Sukhumvit Road after Onnut BTS station. Otherwise i don't know of any other place to park at the moment. The Entrance fee to the Motorshow is 100baht and the fee for parking at Bitech if you want to park inside is 60 baht. Outside parking price, i don't know. Good luck and have fun! /comehome Ps. I forgot to mention, for those bringing children. There are no trollies to borrow for children at Bitech. Just so you know. /ds. Edited March 28, 2010 by Comehome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderpuff Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Tribute to my old friend Stingray - who is one of the VERY FEW on here who knows anything about American muscle cars. Cheers Bud. The red Chevy is for sale at 550,000. It has 454 stickers on the air cleaner but looks like a 350 small block to me. These cars & bikes are out behind the motorcycle venue.

powderpuff Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 There is a public parking lot opposite tesco (on Suk) Signs says 60 baht. I guess that is for all day. NOT COVERED. As you are heading outbound (East) it is past the station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibai Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 (edited) Some cars are very rare and and you seldom see them in Thailand. Why are everybody overexcited about the average looking girls?? Many are borderline ugly and you have millions of them in Thailand. You can see them every day outside your house. I took some pictures of the schmoes that crowded and drooled over the girls. Sorry if I accidentally display any Thaivisa member. (the pic is a crowd in front of some mediocre girls) Some cars like a beautiful Ferrari was almost all alone, nobody looking at the car....so sad.

Taibai, Sorry, but I have to disagree. My sister in-law is a model and has worked at the car show in the past..she is by no way "mediocre" or borderline ugly as you refer to the . All these girls are doing this for a job..they are not selling their body for sex (mind you, whatever they do outside the motorshow is up to them). Yes you can see girls all over Thailand, lucky country to live in. The sad reality is that the Bangkok motorshow has a reputation for displaying mediocre cars. IMO most of the girls are better looking than the cars.. i.e Sangyong, Hyundai. Don't get me wrong, there are some very nice cars there, some great new European models and some classic American Muscle cars included. ps The ferrari you were talking about... Was it this one?

Did you see how much space was wasted for sales tables? Toyota/Honda especially. Have to remember though, the average thai can only afford a car under 1,000,000 Baht. If they are lucky!! And even then, they will bargaining to get a low up-front payment and 60 month payment plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingray Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I will never go to that Show if I wanted to buy a Car. I may just agree to build a house instead haha just one? Why i house? A house is a couple million and it's lost before you finish it, as you can't own it (if you are a foreigner), just pay for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought somebody would have brought in the 50's 300sl ("gullwing") in as well to show them together (there is one in Thailand - one for sure, maybe another) but they didn't (or the owner wasn't available). Having been to other International Auto shows, this one was just plain bad - bad as in not good. Honda Jazz, Toyota Camry, etc. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...... it wasn't a car show so much as a multi-brand dealership meeting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda Jazz, Toyota Camry, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...... it wasn't a car show so much as a multi-brand dealership meeting.... Agree, people are traveling from other countries, like Malaysia, buying plane tickets, and hotel rooms to see the carshow, the biggest show in Asia. Wasting space to display common cheap cars like honda jazz and Toyota Yaris is an insult. A glass of water is more interesting than a Honda Civic. I was speechless when I saw all the regular cars displayed, the same cars parked in the parkinglot outside, or any Tesco parkinglot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
