Geneva sightings: 1 SLR, 2 Phantoms, 3 Maybachs, etc.

[Wutputt]

Last weekend I was in Geneva to visit the motorshow. I wasn't that long in the centre of Geneva, but I still had a chance to see some nice cars.

Let's start with a really Geneva car: a RS4. It's quite impossible to be in Geneva without seeing a RS4 or RS6. There are really a lot of them driving around. One time I was waiting for a red light to cross the street. I didn't had to wait long the see a RS4 driving by. And a few moments later I saw a RS6 at the other side of the intersection. This blue one was taken from the balcony of our room at the hotel.

A 156 GTA with a non standard exhaust:

Maser 3200 GT standing in the parking lot where our car was parked:

A few meters further I spotted this CL 55 AMG:

The next few are a bit of cheating, cause I spotted them on a parking lot outside the motorshow. I missed another Maybach 62 and a silver SLR by 5 minutes. Too bad, this could have given some nice combo shots. But still this company is pretty impressive:

I know. I realised myself the same thing when I took this pic. So I wanted to take a better one. But the driver of the SLR opened the door and got out. Closed the door and someone else came out that door. They both started chatting. So I thought let's take some pics of the Maybachs and if they go back inside I'll take a good pic. When I was shooting the SL, they actually went inside. But I didn't noticed it at first. And when I saw it I went again for the SLR. But I was too late. They came back outside and drove of with the SLR. So I missed the perfect opportunity for a stunning pic. Life just isn't fair ... but fair enough to let me find these exotics.

The Maserati 3200GT is simply blue ??? It looks like a bicolor paiting but it 's very nice. 8)

It's just blue. Prolly the dirt in combination with the TL lighting make it look like a bicolour one. But it isn't ;)

The SLR has nice customs plates too :wink:

[stmoritzer]

finally I have time to browse the pics, very nice ones! Unfortunately no sunshine

I missed these parking lot too :(
The black SLR is rare.
I like the Maybachlogo with the raindrops :)

Thanks for sharing the pictures
