As the temperature began to drop outside, the anticipation continued to heat up inside as IMPORTFEST: Canada's Biggest and Baddest Car Show was about to hit Montreal for the first time ever. The show brought in some of the best cars and special interest vehicles from Ontario and Quebec as well as some competitors as far away as Chicago and Indiana.

In addition to show cars the event also offered fans a chance to meet some of the top models in the industry including Miss IMPORTFEST Montreal - Corissa Furr & Miss IMPORTFEST Toronto - Amy Fay; but that wasn't all there were models as far as the eye could see including some Canadian favorites like Marina Victoria and Jile Cai.

Some other big announcements happened at IMPORTFEST as it wrapped up the 2011 Season; Scion announced 'Project Anarchy' to win the first Canadian Scion Tuner Challenge and they will have their vehicle displayed at Scion's booth at SEMA. Voting also concluded for the 'Baddest Tuner Championship Belt' in the Elite Class going to Tajai Das for 'Acurabot' which returned to the show circuit at IMPORTFEST Toronto.

At IntunedOnline we kept people busy with Panda T-Shirts (still available) and feature model Karine Vandal. This show was also an opportunity to show off our freshly wrapped 370Z project car. All we can say is from Friday at setup till 1AM when we rolled out of the show on Saturday that we had a blast; thank you the entire IMPORTFEST Team and we look forward to 2012.

The Final event for CSCS's biggest year ended at the Toronto Motorsports Park. The weather was amazing and the temperture were higher than expected due to the sun. I got to the track at around 10am and got the see the whole venue fill with show cars, spectators, drifters, racers... until everything was packed. Many cars that usually don't show up for these events also came out including some hellaflush lownatics guys, and kurt with the custom 300C. On the track, CrazyLeo was on track practicing and Sailun tire brought out a brand new Lotus Evora.

There were even more food vendors than before! And spectators got to choose where and what to eat =D Models as well. Once again, the CSCS track lap time record was broken, this time by professional racer, Shasha Anis with a 350Z setting a time of 1:13:9. It was unfortunate that the Advance PowerHouse widebody Evo could not run due to a bumper issue, that would have been an awesome battle.

Finally at the end of the day with the sun settings, the night ended with some fireworks celebrating the finale of the 2011 CSCS events.

As one of the sponsors of the event, Scion Canada also was offering attendees an opportunity to test drive some of the latest models; Scion also unveiled the TC High Voltage edition along with the 3 finalists for the Scion Tuner challenge which the winner will be selected at IMPORTFEST Montreal.

In addition to the various competition classes 4 tuners were selected to compete for the Baddest Tuner through on-site and online voting; in addition to taking home the title of Baddest Tuner title the winner will be awarded a championship belt reminiscent of the WWE.

The Toronto event was fun and exciting for all who attended; we're anxious to see what the Montreal show will have to offer and conclude the 2011 Season; this is a cant miss event.

Today was a really hot day, and rather than spend the afternoon by the pool with a cold one, we went out to the Full Throttle Show held at iCar, a race track not too far from Montreal. And boy we didn't regret it! Sure it was boiling hot, but the great display at the show made us forget a bit of this suffocating heat. From Acuras to Volkswagens, variety was there for everyone's taste. We even got a stand from our Ontarian neighbors with tastefully modified cars! The organizers put up a great show, presenting drifting runs, motocross stunts and burnout contest to excite the numerous bystanders visiting the exhibition, which are most likely to come back next year to visit this unique display!

Being the extreme enthusiasts that we are. IntunedOnline decided to make a day trip to Toronto, ON (6hr drive each way) to officially kick off the automotive season in Canada with the Performance World Custom Car and Truck Show.  The annual show draws in competitors from around Eastern Canada and the United States and offers a great opportunity to clear off the storage dust at one of the first shows of the year. This unique show lasts for 3 days and provides eye candy for even the pickiest automotive conaisseur. The event itself hosted 5 halls worth of cars ranging from some of the top tuning cars, trucks, classics and hot rods to even race cars. In addition to the vehicles; the weekend hosts demos, performances and some of the most beautiful models around. Performance World was also a great chance for local retailers and manufacturers to showcase some of the hottest new products for 2011. Of the show some of the highlights we saw were Auto Concept Elite's M3, a full C-West Integra Type-R, a daily driven AE86 with Honda F20b turbo as well as a radically built right hand drive Veilside Fort
