Frankfurt A.M (Germany) will be an exciting destination for car lovers late September. New models will be revealed, concept cars talked about and dreams of owning the new Maserati GranCabrio will enter our minds. Yes, I wish I still lived in Germany, so I could attend this fantastic show, but I can’t. So i’ll just keep hovering over the RSS of the show updates….until then, here are a handful of highlights. To see a more detailed list and highlights read this review.

These are very nice cars, but I am hung up on the bright yellow Lotus I saw on the street in Monterey a few weeks ago. I keep looking for it every time I walk by… (you can see a cool photo of it on my blog, pauljimerson.blogspot.com).

Very very nice, love to be a designer that got to play with driving my art with 300+ pretty ponies powering the chrome accents, yea… no complaints here. Nice selection.
