2012 Portland International Auto Show

The Portland International Autoshow started on the 26th of January and ends on Sunday January the 29th. This year, ride and drives are available from Toyota with the 2012 Camry, Subaru with a 2012 Impreza and General Motors had the Chevrolet Volt available. Scion had the new IQ available and Kia had a full line up of cars to drive.

One of my favorite events at the show was the Camp Jeep exhibit. Here you could take a ride in a Jeep brand vehicle driven by professional drivers, over a obstacle course that featured a 18 foot, 35 degree Jeep mountain.

Also I finally got to see the new Subaru BRZ. And now that I've seen both the Scion version and Subaru version in person I can say, to me the Scion looks more stylish. But I would buy the Subaru if it was all-wheel drive. Both should be hot sellers.

To see some of the other vehicles that caught my eye at the auto show check out the 2012 Portland Auto Show slideshow.
