T1
ES had: A lot of 300's, a couple Taurus SEL's, Explorers, a couple Explorer XLTs, couple Santa Fe's (or Tucson's, could never really tell the difference from a glance), and a couple Edge SELs.
EA had: Caravans / Town & Countries, Mitsubishi Outlander, 300's, a Taurus. All that really stood out for me.
T3 had: Same as T1 really but had a Genesis as well which I grabbed.
I must say, although it's not a bad car, no XM really hurts when the car only has 4k km, the bluetooth is much weaker than on most of the domestic cars (GM and Ford).

Dropped off the Genesis at YYZ T1 last night and checked out the aisles a bit.
ES - Explorer SLTs again, 2 Yukon XLs (Let's hope they're there next weekend), Couple Chevy Traverse's, a GMC Acadia, Sonatas, Altimas, a Yaris (I think?), a couple 300's
Edit: Oh, and 2 Jeep Liberty's
EA - didn't really make it to the aisle but from what I saw the minivans and an explorer were there.

T1, Nov 5 2011 around noon
ES had a Mustang GT that was snapped up as I walked out, some Escape Limiteds, some Taurus Limiteds and an SHO, a couple Altimas, some 300s, a Challenger, some Chargers and Impalas, a Town'n'Country, and what looked like an NY plated Yaris. I took the Escape for the passenger space. I nearly tried to take an Explorer from the Enterprise spaces abutting the ES, but noticed the key was in the door instead of in the car. The garage walker wouldn't let me take an RVR off the Standard row with my Full-Size res. (I actually like them...)
EA had nothing that stood out, some Sonatas and Fusions at least.
T1, Nov 16 around 10pm
The front-half of ES had Escapes, a striped Mustang, some Tauruses, some 300s, and a Maxima. Ended up with the Maxima ... what a nice car.
I do like how close the ES is to the doors after you've movatored and elevatored through T1 and the parking garage.

Weekend rental. 7pm on a Friday.
T1 EA:
Malibu, flex, Yukon (non xl), minivans
ES:
Altima, couple 300s, Santa fe, traverse, suburban, explorer xlt, lacrosse (my choice).
Was a BMW there (328 from the looks of it) too but in the premium aisle. Should've tried to grab it.

Last night around 7:30 at T1.
Whole lot was devoid of anything smaller than a fusion.
Reserve lots had nothing but SUVs.
Exec lot had like 10 300s, a lacrosse and a flex limited (my choice).
Emerald had a fusion, an impala, and a couple minivans.
Questions / Comments:
2012 Flex Limited is less equipped than 2011. Regular v6 vs the ecoboost and no navi but still a fun ride.
Every time I go to this location and try to look at "Emerald Reserve" aisles I get scolded at by the employees that as an EC member I am to take from the EA and shouldn't be wandering. I'm new to Emerald but thought I could just go to the ER aisles and just grab a car from my designated aisle?
With that in mind, it seems whenever I go there the label for the aisle means absolutely nothing. Yukon XLs parked in compact slots, minivans in midsize etc. if there's a Yukon parked in a compact slot and I have a compact reservation shouldnt I be able to take that?

thanks for the heads up...I'm heading there today in hopes to get in a SUV, Flex or Explorer.
I noticed as long as you're nice to the staff and indicate you're a Executive level member, they will allow you to drive out with whatever selection. I've never tried anything that was convertible, but managed to get premium SUVs or sedans with my midsize contract.

Overall though, this applies as long as it's in T1...Went to T3 once...never again.
