Surprised to see Honda not participated in the Motor Show. Because I believe they have only one model to launch this year, 2013 Accord, and they launched it in their showroom 5 days prior to motor show start. RedBull drift shows were awesome. But still I believe the Qatif guys made much more professional drifting in the public roads (!!!) using their 80’s Cressidas when I was in saudi.
