KL International Motorshow 2006
I just got back from KLIMS. My feet are still aching and my back hurts. I bought the Student Price ticket for RM5. Good bargain but you can’t get into the lucky draw to win the Smart ForFour. You can get that if you pay Rm15 full adult price. What’s the odds of winning anyway.
Overall, it’s really good. I spent aroun d 3 hours walking through the whole exhibition. If I was’nt tired and have’nt run out of batteries for my camera, I’d spend another 2 hours. I don’t even mind spending my whole day there. Exhibits in the first two halls are so-so. The only highlights were Lotus APX and Lotus Europa at the Proton booth. When you get to Renault’s booth..it gets progressively better.
At the Honda exhibition, they said something about a special guest. I initially thought its jenson Button but then this small thing came out…It’s ASIMO! There’s really nothing cool about a robot walking up and down stairs. But every1 just stood there in amazement. I had to do the same as it’s a Malaysian ‘thing’ to look at things that others are looking at.
The final exhibition has to be the most expensive collection of cars in Malaysia. There’s Bentleys, Ferarri, Pagani Zonda and Porche Carerra GT.
The showgirls are also a sight to be hold. Some of them are really nice but some are better off chatting with some guy than taking time to take pictures. I like the Volb\vo girls. If you do go, don’t forget to get as many free stuff as possible. Make sure it’s worth your ticket price.
KLIMS 06 is definitely a must go this year!
