Geneva Motorshow coverage!
 

Ok guys, no need to spend 1000 words about it, especially since I was so late with the editing! I wanted them online yesterday, but with 510 pics to go through, it was impossible!

I hope you will enjoy this massive coverage! The pass really helped to access every stand, every backstage, every cool thing, and once again I can't thank Jabba enough for making it possible!!! It was a blast, I never walked that much in a single day, not even stopped to eat or to piss! Just 5 minutes to meat jackaraman and another 5 to meet komotar (hello guys!) my legs hurt, and now my eyes too after so many editing hours, so you better enjoy the pics!

And please note the extra effort: this time we have cars but also a bonus page with babes ;)

BTW, you can also access a "best of" from the portal, but it is meant basically for the ones too lazy to check the forum LOL

Amazing pictures TT! Thanks for providing top quality pictures from the motorshow, to all of us who couldn't be there! :good:

TT....wow....just.....wow

great coverage, this looks like the best year at Geneva imo.

amazing job again.

OH. MY. GOD. Thank you so much for the pics!

Yet another heroic effort by TT!!! :D Top notch pics! Will be waiting patiently for continuing coverage! :D

You're the man TT

Thanks in advance for the coverage
...
now let's have a look

edit:


browsing the pics, I see a stunning blue Veyron,a white V8Vantage, the yellow 430 Challenge is great, several MB (Brabus), can't wait to see the 599GTB in metal, :drool: Miura/concept,CCX and Murci in "grey", the MC12Racer is a star IMO, the Exelero finally on an open stand...ended by a load of Porsches and Spyker

may I ask for a zip-file with all these awesome picture?

The ladies section is highly appreciated :mrgreen:

You have already said the magic words :D Tnxk TT, great work!

What about the new Spyker? How is it in real live? I think its stunning :D

W O W...and all those cars in alphabetical order :shock: brilliant pics :D
only from these pics i see how HUGE the bonnet of the 599 is...and any info on that alfa which is also ur 1st pic in ur post? i missed it completely so far (can you imagine my surprise when i saw it in your pics? :wink: )
anyway, i wont say too much here, gotta go back and do a triple-check on all those pics :P

thanks TT

im going to spread the JW+SCS links for this in a few threads... who knows, mabey a few people will come here to stay :)

Awsome pics TT :!:

Fiorano looks fuckin TERRIFIC!!! :love:

Alfa Diva looks fantastic! Is it just a concept?
Why gt3's wheels are less and less beautiful? :( Beautiful Delta :drool:
LOL at Mattigs BMW with lowrider bling bling wheels :mrgreen: Little devil C1 looks awsome :shock:

And ladies :P 19 Maybach bunette, 14 Maserati black girl, 08 girl, 03 girl and the winner - Nr30! :love:

THANK YOU TT for pics and Jabba for arragement :P


BTW, did you meet Tom Ford? :P Viky? Tiff?

Sure, just wait a little while ;)

To rename all the pics and do all the copy & paste needed to create the pages was a real nightmare, so I am happy somebody noticed ;)
It would have been heaps better to have them renamed from 001 to 226.jpg ;) but I like the fact ppl can know what car they are looking at by checking out the file url/name ;) so I reduce the # of emails I get asking what car it was ;)
And well, that Alfa, called "Diva" is a concept car by Bertone, so not likely to be built one day :(

It's weird for sure, but makes sense when seen with the various C8 and D12.. I think I wouldn't mind one LOL :shock:

Last year when I posted the Geneva pics the visits were boosted to around 200% and never stopped growing ever since, so it's kind of a lucky charm for me ;) only difference is that if the visits to my website will double now, the server will simple explode as long as my bank account

BTW, I am maybe dumb, but when the car was officially launched I didn't understand it will still be "Fiorano".. so basically we should call it 599 GTB Fiorano?

Yup, Sbarro's

I crossed ways with Tom but didn't dare to bother him. Beside a camera man he was all alone.

:clap:

Re: Geneva Motorshow coverage!
 

Consider it as exercise my friend ;)
Now it's time for you to go to sleep man!!! But first, get your GF to give you a little massage, or... better http://www.catgirlsparadise.com/smilies/cheshire.gif

Thanks :D

Very nice pics, I hope you had some time left to enjoy your day.

That blonde Lancia babe is really hot :fadein:

Superb coverage, and the picture quality is as we expected: awesome ;)

I went through all the pics, and I'm confident this is one of the best motorshows - concidering the number of premieres - within the last years

I'm impressed!!
My favourite? 599 GTB Fiorano :love:
Thanks TT amazing coverage!! :clap:

Amazing work and glad it all worked out in the end - STUNNING photos of course.

Already waiting for 2007 ;)

Did you really enjoy it though or did it seem like work this year ?

Yes, we ofcoure noticed that every pic has full name of the car in the link otherwise I would be lost :mrgreen: Had to be a pain to do it so BIG thanx for that TT :P :wink:

Its shame you didnt chat with Tom :( You could tell him that 5g sux :mrgreen: jk Maybe Komotar or Jackaraman did meet with him?

TT - absolutely great work, i appreciate your effort with the pics - thx mate!!!!

I wonder how he reacted on Pagani stand where they had an LCD screen playing the Top Gear Zonda F review constantly :D

komotar crossed ways with him too but don't think he had time to stop. No idea for jackaraman

Nice pictures TT !!!

Can't wait to see the Apollo in real life :twisted: :!:

Those porsche pictures are very good, you choose a really nice angle there especially the one of the new Turbo. It's not that easy making nice pictures on motorshows; Job well done

Thanks for sharing mate !

Cheers

I bet they will not mention it in 5G :lol: must have been a bad experience for him tho :|

:drool:
there's nothing to say... just amazed... beautiful pics, great cars, superb review and one of those best trips for you TT :good:

we were puting you into a hard work, but you made it just as simply stunning as possible - well done, great job!!! but I wouldn't want to be sitting by comp doing all the work over and over again in such short time :shock: - balance colours, levels, cropping, adding logos, saving... uffff, no thank you, even if it's pre-defined :D .....

thanks a MILION TIMES TT, can't wait for the zip file :D (will that be available for all of us?)

amazing pics
thanx

press pass must help alot ai.. or there will be tons of ppl around u

You are right, officially its 599 GTB Fiorano.
Great pics ... Now I know why you looked in a hurry ...

I wouldnt notice my wife if she was there. Had to finish an article and magazinefrom there, except our meeting and 2 lunches it was 110% work. Barely finished in time ...

Superb pics TT, the new 997 GT3 looks sweet and the rinspeed 997 is positively wank worthy too! The blue MC12 Gt spec is droul worthy!!!! I love the intake restrictors encorperated into the roof scoop moulding.
Great work TT. 8)

OMG TT!!!! Thank you soo much, you have gone to greath lengths for us, cant thank you enough, those pictures are stunning. And i love how you have taken photos of the ladys too, there always beautiful and classy looking girls, Great work again mate!!

Thank you so much!

Thanks dude. For sure it ain't easy to be original. That's why I am happy to be the first posting pics LO: Of course I tried some "different" things like the Porsches from the little restaurant up above, but you soon run out of ideas and difficult to stay inspired 10 hours

:arrow:

LOL, I looked in a hurry? You should have seen Komotar, looking exactly like those ppl with one foot already on the train leaving the railway station ;)

Thanks again a million times TT for your work, it's great to have such report for JW exclusive 8) :D

WOW!! THOSE ARE GREAT PICS!!!!

The New Spyker SUV looks terrible! But the new Alfa is great! Thanks!

Holy Crap !!!! a new viper GTS-R by ORECA !!!! some competition for the C6-R.
Do you have more pics of it ??

i don't know of any other car forum that can provide this kind of thing to the public and it's members. freakin amazing. i've neglected the auto scene for so long now some of these new concept cars astonish me and i dont even know the names/stories of half these machines but that didn't keep my eyes from damn near shooting out of my head.

the 06 focus rally car made me drool. (and i nearly shat myself to see gronholm's name on the side of it).

Thank you so much Matteo for this awesome Geneva Motorshow coverage with your report and all those professional pictures you took there. http://www.rs6.com/smilies/thumbsup.gif

With all these RS4 (Avant,Sedan and Cabrio), it was the Motorshow by excellence for RS4 fans, fortunately you were there for us. On that, thank you Jabba to have made that possible for TT. There are too many great pictures in your Motorshow gallery TT, like the superb Auto-Union Typ C 1936, the Porsche 997 GT3 & turbo, those Lambos and the Zonda F... :P



PS: If you have more pictures of the red Audi B7 RS4 Avant, just PM me buddy. :wink:

WOW.....why would I want to go to Switzerland and see the show myself anyway, these pics are enough. :P

A stunning array of cars, what more could you ask for (an FXX maybe?).

The 599GTB is really growing on me, the front and side profiles are very nice - its only those rear lights (275 GTB style) that don't look right IMO. :bah:

The LP640 Murci is a true beast, but I really need to see it in a proper Lambo colour like green or orange. :D

Zonda F - holy shit!!!! :drool:

Nice to see some old-timers like the Miura and 250 Tdf too. :D

Many thanks TT, and also I think Jabba deserves another mention for making this all possible. :good:

my favourites (alfa, stola and ferrari):

Whoooooaaaaa !!! awesome pics, those are some very, very nice cars up there. and all those pictures are very beautful, thanks ! nice to see you had a great time :)

Well, the GT3 and 997TT are on revolving platforms, like a couple of cars last year. you can stay at the barrier and take some pics of them, not sure how wide your lense is, but a 18mm should be plenty enough. Sadly when the car is revolving, it isn't helping. It was especially bad for the pics from up above, I wouldn't have think so ...
As for light, on most stands ok. I was shooting most of the time with the tripod to have a slow shutter and have blurried moving ppl around the cars, but when shooting the ladies for instance I was always shooting w/o the tripod, F2.8 and ISO 200 or 400 for worst cases. I think your camera too can go up to ISO400 at least without terrible noise, so it should be good for most stands. Koenigsegg and Pagani are the worst: not enough light and revolving cars. Brabus is as always cramped. but since this time I was able to be inside too, I am not sure how bad it is LOL. for sure you can see it was tricky to fit the whole R in the shot from the front (16 mm wide open and tripod as high as it can go (around 190 cm I think)

Nope sorry, no more pics, but I would have liked to have a camera since they revved the hell out of it while presenting it :D (I was kinda far away, on the BMW stand when I heard some right pedal blips, and I doubt it was some of the weird suvs they had on stage near the Viper :D

You know I never keep pics for myself. I posted all the good pics I got ;) sadly the Audi stand was pretty crowded from 7 am to 7 pm :bah:

fucking A pics TT ... thanks alot ...
who made that banner on the portal .. its really really sweet ..8)
btw dont fotget to zip all the pics :P

Look on page 2, there is already an url to the zip ;)
And the banner was done by me :)

cool cool 8)
:? .. dude thast the kind of banners we need on here on JW :mrgreen:
on the first look i was like holy shit :shock: ... :lol:

Well of course it is about reading some tutorials online and try to apply what they say :D I am just a noob and it took quite some time to get it right anyway

hand me the links ..... i got loads of free time these days .... lets see how creative i can be ... :)

I'm just back from the show as well :)

Took a few hundred pics... but I need to put them all up.

The 599 was really impressive in person btw. Was kinda 1337 to have a ticket to go up on the Ferrari stand ;)

hey TT did you get any of the new SX-4 WRC car?

Ok, finnaly me :D . I can say that all the pics are proffesionaly made, and they are just stunning 8)

The BESt ones for me:
-Pagani Zonda-bare carbon, really great
-blue MC12
-black murcielago roadster, great pic and fantastic car :D
-ferrari 599 :P
-Lorinser S kllasse looks really good
-sportec 997 great, but the floor disturbe me :?
-+ all the BMWs especially the new Z4M roadster

Thanks for the pics, i really enjoyed them, hope you did also, when you took them :)

Superb effort, TT!!!!!!!!!!! :D Thanks so much for bringing the people unable to go and see for themselves the images of the ultimate car show!

I saw the banner immediately, very cool! The pictures are of the usual quality, i.e. stunning!

I'm not a big fan of Sbarro, but when I saw this modern interpretation of the Tipo 33 Stradale my jaw dropped to the floor... :drool:

The full frontal pic of the 599 GTB Fiorano is beautiful as well. I'm not going to comment on every pic, suffice it to say there's too much fantastic machinery on them to do that.

Nice to see so much classic cars (250 GT SWB Zagato!!!!! :shock: ) as well. Who organised the display of much of the classics, like the Auto Union, the 300 SLR Uhlenhaut etc.? It looks like they were part of the same stand.

Thanks TT and of course Jabba! :D

Well TT...your coverage it's just...perfect :) Tomorrow I'm going to Geneva to the Motorshow and I planned to take my digicam with me...but after seeing your pics maybe I will save them, leave my cam in my home and go to the show just to enjoy it. :) Congratulations and thanks to share them with us :wink:
