RAID Suisse-Paris: 300SL, Montreal, SLR, Stratos, MC12, Enzo
I finally decided to post them right now, I already sorted them out and edited them (82 pics out of 200+ taken  )
That was a really nice day, sunny and hot for once, and in Basel (north-west of switzerland - german speaking part for those who didn't know) it's quite rare, I had never seen that before, it was always cloudy/rainy when I went there
Of course the local ferrari dealer (Hasler AG, already went there last year) had to be there ... they brought only 4 cars ... worth 2 millions € together
  

As you can see, looks like they don't give a fuck about photographers
A nice alfa romeo
There was a little open air area in the middle of the builing (stunning Stratos :shock: )
  
Then I saw where all the cars which were supposed to take part to this event were parked ... again, a nightmare where the word "night" takes all his sense : a dark area in the building, neons everywhere, cars standing 10cm from each other ... LMAO definitely I have no luck those days  Well, I just decided to wait until they start the rally
I was walking around the cars when I noticed something strange, modern cars in the middle of that event, wtf, turned out they had a little VIP party the day before and they brought some nice cars which were still there  (god bless the pocket tripod, a few pictures were fucked up (grey spyker, F430 spider - a bit too blurry for me) but it could have been worse)
  
  
  
Various cars spotted around the event ...
  
  
  

Finally, pics of the RAID

Awesome event and very good pictures! The two Khamsin are so sexy! The De Lorean is unbelievably exotic and "back to the future"! I want to see one  and that 300SL
Thanks a lot!

Before talking about your post, here's probabely the answer to the green paper
There was a Concours d'Elégance

Thanks for the information, I hadn't heard about it
Let me add this beautiful Alfa Romeo, I first thought it was too dark and noisy to be posted but then I decided to work a little bit with the curves and to use neat image

Great pictures !
As above already said, I like the F40,F50,MC12,Enzo pics, awsome pics (nice reflection of the hall lights)
The "new" cars were part of the "by invitation only" Premium Car Show

- SLR in motion, 8)
- Thanks for the MB SL cars, I missed them in Zürich
- De Lorean, very rare!
Thanks for the coverage of the start.

The Ferrari dealer only brought 4 cars, that isn't even wort mentioning... 
:shock: Titanium coloured Enzo, MC12, F40 and F50. Just stunning. No extr apics of this quartet?
As for the event itself, a very nice collection of vintage cars, you won't see on the road often. Thanks for sharing the pics!

The F40 was 3 meters away from the others, so no pics of the quartet, just one other pic of the row, you can easily understand why I did not take hundreds of pics
