Geneva 2012: Vote on the Best

No comments

The Geneva Palexpo convention center may have opened its doors to car fans from the general public on Thursday, but for the rest of us, the 82nd edition of the Swiss motor show has already taken its place in the history books. But what a spectacular car show it was with dozens of world premieres ranging from economical mainstream city cars such as the five-door Skoda Citigo to one-of-a-kind supercar exotics like the €2.1 million Lamborghini Aventador J.
Looking at our stats, we found that the five most read stories from the 2012 Geneva Motor Show this week (March 5 to 9) on Carscoop.

We should note that if you include the previous week, during which we had several presentations, the Ferrari F12berlinetta comes out first followed closely after by the Mercedes A-Class, Infiniti Emerg-E, Bentley EXP 9 F SUV and the Volvo V40.
But enough with that. What we would like you to tell us is from all the new cars/tuned models and concept studies that were presented in Geneva, which ones did you find the most and least appealing as well the most boring.
To keep it simple, just copy-paste the box that follows and list your choices in the comments section.
