More Information: www.luxurysupercar.com <http://www.luxurysupercar.com/> Over 20 million dollars worth of cars on display at Luxury + Supercar Weekend Vancouver, BC. The stars will all be out. But we're not talking about ordinary Hollywood-type celebrities; these are stars with names like Ferrari, Maserati, Porsche, Rolls Royce, Bentley, BMW, Mercedes Benz, Lotus, Aston Martin, Spyker, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Range Rover, Saleen,,Audi, GM and Lexus. Over 20 million dollars worth of cars will be on display at the Edgewater Casino Luxury + Supercar Weekend September 12 and 13 at the Plaza of Nations. A motoring occasion unlike any other, the two-day Plaza of Nations event rolls out the red carpet to the world's finest collection of both luxury automobiles and supercars, including the world's fastest Enzo and the car that started the term Supercar, the Lamborghini Miura, as well as exclusive never-before-seen personalized supercars from an elite group of private collectors. Because they're not profitable for manufacturers, only "small batches" of these engineering marvels are made, and sold to collectors before the public has a chance to see them. You'll be among the first to catch the invited stars like the Buggatti Veyron 16.4 coupe, Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Grand Sportes, the Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SuperVeloce, Mercedes Benz S400 Hybrid, and the Mercedes Benz 2010 E Class Sedan, all making their Canadian debuts, and the Maserati MC12, Saleen S7 Twin Turbo, and Spyker, in Vancouver for the first time. Combine this intoxicating, once-in-a-lifetime collection with stylish guests, lovely models, BBQ, premium beverages, a DJ, live entertainment, the chance to meet the owners of some of the elite supercars themselves, all in a beautiful waterfront setting, and you'll see why this boutique-style event is the must-attend end-of-summer party. It's the perfect occasion for entertaining friends and clients or even do a little browsing for your own driveway. "The coming together of high-end car enthusiasts and dealers is a natural extension of our mutual appreciation for and enjoyment of these marvelous machines," notes Herb Mills, Sales Mange of Bentley Vancouver, a division of MCL Motor Cars, which is participating in the show. "This is a show not to be missed." Weissach's Asgar Virji echoes Herb's sentiment. "We are excited to be involved in the first show in Vancouver that focuses specifically on luxury and supercars," says Virji, who will be on hand as Lamborghini Vancouver rolls out the New Lamborghini LP560 SPYDER, as well as the super light, super fast LP670 SV. "The true and purist car enthusiast will be thrilled to see the new EXIGE 240S and the purist edition of the ELISE 190... Lotus of Vancouver is proud to be a part of the supercar showcase." The Luxury + Supercar Weekend is all about cars, but it's also about food, parties and Vancouver, as guests are invited to take in dinners Friday at Le Crocodile (60th anniversary of Porsche dinner) on Saturday at La Terrazza (the Supercar Dinner) and after-parties Friday at Bar none, Saturday at Pop Opera. General admission and VIP show tickets are now on sale. Tickets are $20.00 and $75.00 plus service charges and are available online at www.wanticket.com <http://www.wanticket.com/> , or commission free in person at Edgewater Casino Guest Services, and will be sold at the door (subject to availability).
