Auto shows are a good place to spend an afternoon. I especially like seeing the concept cars....many of which
won't see production and are usually the ones that I would really like to own! Interesting models on display,
many showing a dash of the future but still showing their pedigree lines.....

Hybrids aren't just for fuel economy any more

GENEVA (AP) — Hybrids aren't just for fuel economy any more.
Ferrari and McLaren both on Tuesday unveiled sleek hybrid supercars sculpted from carbon fiber at the Geneva Motor Show.
LaFerrari is the name of the new special edition Ferrari, meant to be the definitive. "Owners say they have a Ferrari," Chairman Luca di Montezemolo said. "This is THE Ferrari." Montezemolo said the electric engine has a performance appeal that is proving a draw to Ferrari owners.
Only 499 of the models will be built -- and some 700 people, many of them Ferrari owners already, have registered interest meaning a tough selection process. It has a top speed in excess of 350 kilometers per hour (217.4 mph). The price tag: €1 million ($1.3 million)...Yer Average mans car Who cannot afford to Fill Er Up...Going GREEN....What Hypocrisy!!....BUT!..I love it...

I've collected some photos of cars launched at the Geneva motor show in this thread: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?76262-News-from-Geneva

And the P1 here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?76082-The-new-Big-Mac

Read today that there have been about 700 people interested in the P1 as well; only 375 are going to be build though..

The big Ferrari's (F40, F50, Enzo) are only sold to those fortunate enough to have a history with the brand and own (At least) one other Ferrari.
