2008 Paris Motor Show is Here<\/h1>\n

Earlier today the Paris Motor Show opened its doors to many anxious executives, geeky photographers and some public. While our world economy is currently at odds with most of this show, the French companies still have a strong projection of the future. This was exemplified earlier today with stunning design and lavish displays.<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, many of the top supercars were kept under wraps until opening day. These include our favorite, the GTbyCITRO\u00cbN<\/a>. It has a ridiculous interior, but an external shape that exudes performance without even moving. And with a surprise launch of the Hypnos concept<\/a>, we can say Citroen really stole the show.<\/p>\n

Ferrari used Paris to show off the California which has already been previewed at private functions all over the world. Lamborghini also launched their 4-door Estoque concept<\/a> ahead of the show which made it less frantic on the floor.<\/p>\n

Everything that Paris had to offer is becoming available in our sexy gallery<\/a> by Dirk de Jager. Over the next few hours expect to see the return of Lada, more ladies d’ elegance<\/i> and French sensibility.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
