Ahh yeah, thought so.
Jeff's Shed is the nickname of the exhibition center. They called it that 'cuz good old Jeff Kennit spent far too much money putting it together. It then kinda flopped on it's arse and didn't do much for a while. That's how I remember it anyway.

dude, most of the chicks there were like 16 years old... wait... 
Autosalon was a complete crock (just like it was last time I went 2 or 3 years ago). Of all the cars there I only liked the classy JZA80 in the pioneer stand. Most of the cars there just made me want to cry. The show attracts so many try-hards and wannabe vin diesels too... so glad i didnt pay for my ticket.

Its actually not too bad nowadays as they have a wider variety. Also because it has been very competitive amongst car clubs too..
16 year olds? I'm severely doubt so.

I know for a fact that a lot of those models are underage - a lot of them go to schools around my area and my sister knows them.
I dunno, it's just not my scene I guess. I don't understand why you'd want TV monitors under your bonnet or a massive bonnet scoop and backwards opening boot on a mechanicaly standard civic.

Personal taste.
What girls would go to autosalon and look at strange looking motors. Its for the general public.
Besides some of the stuff done to the cars take alot more time and effort than just working a motor. Like i mean some of the cars might have a bit of power e.t.c. Does it mean that they start are going to dynoshoot and get a accurate reading?
A better autosalon is in japan. Everyone knows that that kind of stuff u can buy dvds to view and even if u are there in person you woudn't see any of them in action there.
Maybe a few i'm talking about under 5 girls out of 50 plus might be underage. Thats because they're a clubs nominated girl. But the workshop/retailers have real models. Not that they're brilliant but i'm just saying they're not 16.
After autosalon is autosalon. Break it down.
Salon=a place to get tarted up
Auto=refers to vehicles mainly cars in this case.
All u expect is a bunch of dressy cars. With a few girls scattered around to make it interesting.

There's alot more nicer cars though. The scene is slowly changing. Everyone wants to be "JDM". There's a more focus for kits from japan, euro/jap rims and dumpage. Not really many airbrushed neoned out etc type cars as used to be.
I didn't really see any girls that looked underage.
There are still some unclassy cars. I suppose if you got the money and the free time why not. Otherwise I haven't paid to go to autosalon since in 2000. It's actually not that bad.
