Look outside, have you noticed? The nights are getting shorter, the leaves on some trees are already starting to change Colorado, you do know what this means right? I won't even mention it 'cause it just hurts too much...

As the leaves turn shades of red, orange and yellow, Auto123.com is also slowly turning over a new page. In the car business, 2010 is already old news. 2011 is here and 2012 is just around the bend. That's right, the auto show season is about to begin.

First on the docket will be the 125th edition of the Mondial de l'Auto in Paris at the end of the month. It promises to be quite the party! Your favourite car junkie Matt St-Pierre will be making the trip. This show will be followed by the likes of L.A., Detroit and many others.

Just prior to Paris and a little closer to home, Donna and her crew will be headed to Importfest in Toronto. There, Auto123.com will tune in to the latest tuner trends and report back to you in true fashion.

Before all this action takes place, we've got a different kind of offering for you: next week is Green week, or nearly. We've got reviews on the Toyota Prius, the Lincoln MKZ hybrid, the BMW ActiveHybrid7 and even a smokin' fume-free Tesla Roadster! You'll also find first driving impressions on the all-new 2011 Hyundai Equus and Honda Odyssey, just for good measure.

For the week of September 19th, we've prepared a selection of cars that will help you think back to the glory days of summer, make you forget that the coming of winter is invitable. How's about this: 2010 Chevrolet Camaro SS, 2010 Dodge Challenger RT and 2011 Mercedes SLS AMG. Sound good to you?

Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride. Fall is coming. Deal with it. This is how we will.
