Disney Pixar CARS 2: Replica CARS 2 Tour – Coming to America (and Canada)
Coming to America (and Canada) – so do the Rebel Dad Gum yell and show us your cute kids!
Jesse G and “Raw,” were kind enough to send us some pics of the first tour stop at the Mall of America.
Finn – very cool.
Sometimes X does mark the spot …
And of course, the 3rd co-star was there …
Hey, why is my bumper all sticky?
Of course I’m happy, I get 1% gross of all the merchandiscing – even if you buy a Chick Hicks. Haha.
And ‘State Farm’ will take a free pic for you.
Even 1:1 scale Mater is less metal these days … 🙂
Guess they done thought you wouldn’t recognize me if I got the 95 logo plastered on me.
Security!
We have a breach! Takedown! Takedown! Takedown!
Security!
Yes, officer, when I came to mall, I was pretty darn sure I had two front teeth …
Mater could use that ‘Find My Front Teeth’ App.
The video wall showing the trailer … were there kids activities? Or maybe not enough room here?
You can find the rest of the schedule in our post from the other day of the 30-city tour.
You know it’s good – even Steve Jobs showed up to check it out …
Okay, maybe not … but maybe if you re-read this on April 1st …
Thanks Jesse G & “Raw.”
Now – everyone sing …
“Far
We’ve been travelling far
Without a home
But not without a star
Free
Only want to be free
We huddle close
Hang on to a dream
On the boats and on the planes
They’re coming to America
Never looking back again
They’re coming to America.”

Does anyone know the location of this for the Washington DC? thank you
On Sunday, Mother’s Day at Veteran’s Plaza in Silver Spring from 12 to 5
On Monday, May 9th at the Spy Museum Downtown on F street from 10 to 7.
If you’re going Monday, see you there.
Wow, awesome pics. Thanks for sharing! I love the funny commentary as well; thanks for making me laugh, Met. It appears that the roped off area, and even the video monitor, is more official than what we had at the Chicago Auto Show. Finn looks great. By the way, is he modeled after the Avengers’ car?
Jesse, thanks for the photos too
I definitely have to update my NEEDS list!!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve scheduled a vacation day for April 1 to go see them in Florence, Kentucky (just south of Cincinnati)… My wife won’t let me take my grandchildren out of school to go with me… and she won’t take off work either…
I’m looking forward to it… if there’s rain in the forecast for Friday I may take a 1/2 day off Thursday 3/31 and see them in Cincinnati Thursday afternoon, spend the night, and Cars shop…
Great photos – thank you for sharing!
They are so cool.
The “Sometimes X does mark the spot” comment reminded me of Indiana Jones. lol
Toooooooooo cool!!!
Neil Diamond is awesome.
Great pictures! Thank you for sharing!
…Steve Jobs…too funny…
Are there any news or schedule for the european tour?
They are in St. Louis today, tomorrow, and Monday. However, they are calling for rain today which means the Cars will be covered, so we’re going to try tomorrow. It’s already snowed several inches where I live, so my fear was that they wouldn’t bring out the Cars tomorrow, but it’s only sticking to the grass. I’ll report back Sunday night.
Looks like Abbott & Costello are in charge of a local St. Louis website. Will they or won’t they be covered??? I read this as if it’s planned for indoors now:
UPDATE MARCH 26, 2011 –The Cars events at the Museum of Transportation are under cover. The Cars will NOT be covered on March 26-27 in the event of rain or snow.

(MET: Inflammable, flammable …)
I have to work when they come to our town, but hopefully these pictures will convince my wife to take the kids. Took them to ride on Thomas last year and when my son saw Thomas he took of across the train tracks after him. At least these will be in a mall where he can’t get run over.
(MET: Too funny. Always funny to watch tiny kids sprinting and doing a Barry Sanders while being chased by adults 🙂 ).
I probably won’t see these until Pixar Day. They only had Guido and Luigi.
Awesome pictures..hopefully we can see them too!
Awesome!!!
I Love, Luv these pics, thank you so much for sharing.
Next stop, Salmon Run Mall Watertown, NY. Please!
