HS: Luigi's Casa Della Tires?

I was at HS on 5th and 6th of September. Across from where you get out from Muppet's 3D, I spotted this sign behind a wall, "Luigi's Casa Della Tires". Does anyone know what they are doing there?? The only Cars attraction right now is the character photos with McQueen and Mater, so I would be anxious to hear what they have planned for this.

There was something posted on wdwinfo.com under Disney News about a Lugi themed attraction going in at Disneyland, maybe they're bringing to WDW also.

Just reread the brief piece on wdwinfo.com. This attraction is being developed for California Adventure and is called Luigi's Roamin' Tires. Apparently guests board a "truck" of some sort and move along a course while avoiding wavering towers of tires. There's also a play area of some sort planned. The piece appeared 8/24/08.

it's expected that lightning and mater will move to a permanent display over to where al's toy barn was. this is probably what it is.

The irony is that the last time I went to WDW prior to earlier this month was May of 2000. Al's Toy Barn was not there at that time, and now I see Luigi's. So I had no idea it was missing!
Buzz and Woody were inside a viewing room across from TSM. There was a winding line that had cut outs and photo opps of things from the TS movies. I.e. I was able to get my DS it appear to be in the bin with the aliens as the claw comes down. Another one was t with Zurg, and a third was in Buzz's spaceship packaging. It is a great way to keep people's mind off the fact they are waiting.

They should be easier to meet in that location than on Pixar Place. It was entirely too crowded over there. Of course, with these guys, it will still be crowded, but at least they have their own space now.
