A few other highlights from Geneva...
Discussion
I know that I shouldn't really be posting this in the AM section but I don't really post elsewhere on PH so here goes.
A couple of extra things which stood out to me from my brief trip to the Geneva Salon d'Auto yesterday:
Would I ever buy one? Of course not! But the new Ford GT/40/whatever does look great. Especially the aero bits around the cabin.
On the Renault stand. Slightly R8-esq. I wonder if this is what was being developed in association with Caterham before that partnership split up?
The new McLaren/Honda F1 car was on the Honda stand. I imagine that it was only a mock-up but still, they were obviously very happy for people to get very close to it. Is the aero on the actual car going to be so different that McLaren are happy for Honda to give away their secrets so readily?
And finally...
Lots of manufacturers do little versions of their cars for little people but I imagine that the AM version is reassuringly expensive.

I go every year (am there on Friday this year) but for the first time ever, am worried one day might not be enough !
As usual, have arranged stand passes at aston/Ferrari/porsche/lambo/Bentley/etc (and a few more obscure ones) but there is so much besides the usual suspects that looks so interesting this year - really looking forward to this show
