Nah, all Japanese cars.

Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate a good 4 banger car. I just prefer a sleeper look for 4 bangers. I can't stand rice looking cars although some do actually look good.

Theres certainly some money flying about at that show. The Japanese car industry obviously dwarfs Australias for many obvious reasons though. starting with the fact we make only a few cars.
