Off to the Paris motorshow on Fri with one thing to do - see the new Boxster before speccing mine.

Porsche GB have contacted Porsche France but no stand tickets have been forthcoming, although my name, amongst others, has been emailed to them.

So, question is, how close will I be able to get to the 987s? As it's the launch are you able to sit in the cars as all the pictures I've seen so far seem to have the cars 'fenced off' from joe public. Or is it a case that as it's the launch rather than release to the public you can't get too close?
