Chevrolet Corvette C1

2025 02 27 posting Canadian International Autoshow Media Day held February 12, 2026

An annual highlight for us is an invitation to Media Day at the Canadian International Autoshow (CIAS). We were treated to a wonderful array of cars, some of which you will see here. Many of the cars on this page were featured in our two Collector Car Stories podcast episode videos shot at the show. Hear about just how much horsepower those Caddys, Corvettes and the Mustang GTD put to pavement; about how Toyota Lexus maybe isn’t as vanilla as we thought; about how the Honda Indy, Canada’s Indy race, has moved to a new track for ’26; about a couple of exceptional in-season shows; and about the winners of the AJAC Car and Utility Vehicle of the Year awards, featured in a video below the last of the large size photos. (The other finalists are among the lower galleries.) Another great show and a tell-tale sign that our season, car season, is just around the corner. We can’t wait! The show is dominated by manufacturers, which means new cars, but we found a C1 Corvette up top, which we can’t help but have remind us of the ’61 we sold in November. Enjoy the pics, enjoy the podcasts, here they are –
