Just got back from Geneva. Spectacular highlights were the Chiron in the flesh (works much better IRL), the finish on the Huayra Roadster and the general stance/looks of the Huracan Performante, a really cool design and finally the Brabus Classic restorations looked incredible.

In the real world I was really impressed with the Panamera Gran Turismo (in grey, the blue makes it look too big) and Merc's E-Class coupé (really stylish in and out), the RR Velar looked impressively concept-like, in a good way.

I was a bit underwhelmed with the GT3, at least as presented there, wouldn't spec it in that red/black theme, and then again, I suppose it's not meant to be a show stopper anyway. The AMG GT R looks horrible in that matt green, interior felt pretty cool. Audi/BMW were a bit absent despite Audi's RS5 world première (horrible).

Porsche's hospitality was nice, relatively good food and drinks, good service!
