great day out nick :thumbsup:

Will post the pics once i get my laptop back from repair.

Get the mazza mate and keep the z4 for trips out with us.
 
Some more pics from the show....John has some good ones from BMW, saw the new 6 and the Z4 E89 with the new design interior. Spoke to a few guys from BMW Germany at the show, and they still confirm there is no plan to make a Z4M E89, as the performance of the 35iS is too close to what an M could produce - well it wouldn't if they put a V8 in it, but apparently, due to the new way we think about big engines, they prefer to stick to a V6 with lower emissions etc etc...
 
They always say that ... just like with the E85.

The 3.0 was not that much slower then the M, but it is not just the engine that makes an M an M.
 
Yes you're right PVR, but I think the down turn and public conception has seen to that - although demand for high end performance cars has risen again - and the prices for what super cars were getting after the crash have gone up a fair bit (they couldn't get any lower). Audi point blank refused me any discount off an R8, even when I waived my credit card in their faces.

Also insurance costs are killing the performance market at the mid range level - if you had to pay £1500 insurance for an M these days - you'd think again. The insurance companies lure you in in the first year and come renewal, it's the same old story.
 
Not sure mate but there is a hyundai banner above and behind the car. Must admit i like that one to.

opps just seen the cadalac banner to....
 
the lambo looks unbelievably awesome. my fave car of all time is the murci SV LP-670, but this might take the crown.

The ferrari looks naff to me, way too long ! didnt realise they were trying to tap into the limousine market?
