[Geneva once again] Roof : 2 SLR, phantom, 3 Maybach, SL65..

[Darkel]

Well, I know you guys have seen enough geneva pics :wink:
I wanted to post those ones as soon as possible but wutputt posted another set yesterday, when I was at the show :P

First I want to thank Wutputt who told me where that thing was, even late in the night on saturday (my last chance :lol: )
So here are the pics I took this sunny afternoon on the roof of the show, there was less snow as you can see.

The silver one

Some very fine pics and once again I feel dumb having missed this :?

Luckily saw an SLR yesterday, so it's ok :P

[chest3r]

Nice pics from the black SLR!! Thankz a lot 8)

[Wutputt]

Nice, you've seen both SLR's. Too bad they weren't park next to each other. That would have given some superb combo shots. Some unusual rims for the SLR. But I still prefer the ones of the black SLR. Those pics of it with the red background turned out really well. I'm happy you found the place. Your pics are great ;)

Luckily the black maybach 57 and the twotone 62 were parked next to each other. I like your comboshot of it. This really gives an idea how long a 62 is. The already long 57 looks small compared to it :)

[Darkel]

Thanks :wink:
Just noticed that I forgot the SL65 !

T'aurais pu t'appliquer pour les photos :mrgreen:

[komotar]

[adamwich]

Some really nice pictures! Thanks for sharing.

[dingo]

Nice pics mate, I have a nice collection of the cars on the roof now :P


Luckily saw an SLR yesterday, so it's ok :P

Another one? This is in addition to the silver one you saw a few weeks ago? :shock:

[stmoritzer]

@ Darkel
thanks for sharing these nice pics of the SLR in the sun; me too, I missed the outdoor parking :( Did you hear the engine ?


... Some unusual rims for the SLR ...
I'm quite sure these are the standard rims of the SLR because the turbine-design rims cost extra money ( don't ask me why they do it like that); the turbine-rims cost 9800Euros extra, so most probabely they have winter tyres on the stanndard rims and summertyres on the turbine-rims

[Darkel]

Did you hear the engine ?
Not really, both SLR couldn't go very fast with all this people around :|

Dani_d_mas >> they were on the "esplanade", an open air place where you could see geneva's airport and the planes landing but most people don't go so far, they see the old firetrucks event and they go back to the halle 6.
As Wutputt told me, you just had to turn right and to walk 50 meters and you were in front of a maybach ... in fact mercedes & RR customers could be driven to the airport from there, I even saw a 22 years old girl at the back of a Maybach 62 :shock:

[Darkel]

BTW, talking about parkings ... I also wanted to see the 2 lambos (both from affolter) but couldn't find the place were they were parked ...
When I was looking for them, I had already left the palexpo so I couldn't go back anymore (I learned that TT had set the mode McGyver to find them :mrgreen: )
I was walking outside, freezing my ass and I heard an impressive noise ... OMFG the yellow murci (yellow rims etc ...) and the orange gallardo followed by a 300C convertible and a FX45 : Affolter crew :shock: Too late for a pic, already gone into the parkings :?

[TT]

Dude, I just asked to a girl selling tickets how to enter that fucking parking :D

[Darkel]

I sent an sms to fuegoturbo who told me the only way to enter that fucking parking was to use the escalator next to the pininfarina stand (as I said, too late) , I was fucking tired and I didn't want to search 3 hours long :D

[TT]

Yes he actually asked to me before answering to your SMS ;)

[Darkel]

Yep, that's what I thought :mrgreen:
Well, at least I didn't miss everything :|

[Schwalbe]

Your SLR pictures are really cool Darkel. :D

It's interesting to see the JW users collaboration for the visit of this 2005 Geneva motorshow. Great job guys ! :wink:
