Previously held in March, The Australian International Motor Show now aligns with the global motor show calendar, separating itself from other exhibitions in the Northern Hemisphere. This provides a wider window for manufacturers to get their new releases, concepts and show specials to the event.

More than 80,000 people flocked through the doors in the first 4 days of the show – a 27 per cent increase over the same period at last October’s show in Sydney, and a substantial 41 per cent on the attendance at the last Melbourne International show held in 2009.

This year featured more than 50 concept vehicles and future models

The Lamborghini LP 700-4 Aventador was the most powerful car in the show, with the V12 beast capable of blasting to 100km/h in 2.9 seconds.

Just 500 of these $750,000 beauties have been built.

The Audi e-tron is a one–off all-electric prototype high performance sports car is said to be worth more than $2 million.

Toyota’s headline act the FT86-II concept provides a good indication of the next  ‘Celica-style’ sportscar to come from Toyota.

The Mazda Shinari goes on sale in 2014.

The BMW Vision is powered by a 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbo-diesel, mated to a pair of electric motors to power this 2+2 sports car.

Big thanks to Paul for the shoot, Peter for bringing his Skyline, Fiona for shuffling, and our lovely model Maria! Photos up soon – in the mean time check out the behind the scenes.
