Photo Gallery: The Exotic, Antique, and Special Interest Cars to See at the 2026 Toronto Auto Show

Thanks to its status as the largest and most prestigious auto show in Canada, the Toronto Auto Show has no shortage of unique and exotic vehicles on display.

Indeed, in addition to hundreds of new vehicles presented by their manufacturer, the show also reserves a significant portion of its footprint to (almost) priceless exotics and historically significant antique vehicles.

For example, visitors of the 2026 edition, which runs from February 13th to the 22nd at the Metro Toronto Convention Center, will be able to feast their eyes on rarities such as the one of one Bugatti Mistral La Perle Rare, the new McLaren W1, priced over 2,4 million euros, a Pagani Utopia, an Aston Martin Valhalla, a Ford Mustang GTD, two Koenigseggs, two Singer Porsches, several Ferraris and Lamborghinis, as well as an original McLaren F1 from the 1990s.

Both the Audi and Cadillac F1 cars are also on display ahead of their racing debut for the 2026 season.

Antique car enthusiasts haven’t been forgotten about, with the basement level “vault” exhibit including a few dozen cars from the 1910s to the 1980s, ranging from a spectacular 1924 Delage torpedo made mostly of wood, a 1972 Lamborghini Miura, a Canadian-made 1966 Beaumont convertible from General Motors, a 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing, a 1986 Buick Grand National, Lester B. Pearson’s own 1963 Buick, and the spectacular 1961 Chevrolet Corvette Mako Shark 1, on loan from General Motor’s heritage collection.

In the same room, there is also an exhibit of micro cars from the 1950s and 1960s, such as a BMW Isetta, a Goggomobil, a Messerschmitt, an NSU Sport Prinz, and even an adorable 1969 Subaru 360 Van.

The rising popularity of 1980s and 1990s cars among enthusiasts has also prompted the organisers to include the Oblivion car and culture show for a second year in a row. Displayed in their dedicated room are a 1983 Audi Quattro Coupe, a 1996 Lamborghini Diablo VT, a 1984 Honda Civic CRX, a 1989 Nissan Pulsar NX Sportbak, one of only 20 1985 Ford RS200s, a 1991 Geo Tracker towing a Yamaha WaveVenture, a 1998 Mitsubishi Pajero Evolution, a 1985 Ferrari 308 GTS and a 1992 Ford Taurus SHO.

If any of these cars have piqued your interest, a visit to the 2026 Toronto International Auto Show is well worth it.
