Go by bike, you pass all the traffic and get to park at the entrance.

Re: Geneva Motor Show [March 08]

Interesting to note that Infiniti ( Nissans challenge to Lexus) will be hitting European shores next year, starting with the new FX Series

be nice to think they will come with US style pricing, but thats probably a vain hope ....

Re: Geneva Motor Show [March 08]

you can get the Infiniti now; FX35 costs about 95'000. But of course the price should come down when small numbers are not being imported.

The hairdresser comment is because most from the UK would call "sporty" 2-seaters a "hairdresser's car" - spawned IIRC from the Mk2 MR2

but the comment was about the bike , not the car. The car was my wifes.
No matter. 150HP bike is certainly nothing to call girly.

so shipping them to Europe doubles the price

Re: Geneva Motor Show [March 08]

The US always gets a big break on the price, but they often have to pay for extras that are included here. Of course where the dollar is at now makes the gap even greater.

That FX looks interesting, but wonder if it earns 95k beans.
