2008 Geneva Auto Show: Which of these cars would you want in L.A.?

If you could change the (car) world...


Although Switzerland is the cultural equivalent of total neutrality, each year the car world expresses strong opinions about auto debuts of every shape and size in Geneva. Many of these brands will never see the shores of the U.S.A., but it's fun to dream, right? We've plucked some photos from the Geneva Motor Show, so you be the judge -- what if they brought these cars here to L.A.?

Alfa Romeo 8C Spider

This car made a huge hit in Geneva. The price has not yet been announced, but there will only be 500 of them made -- and even that will take two years. The 8C Spider has a 4.7-liter 450-horse power V8. The 20-inch rear wheels are powered by a six-speed paddleshift gearbox.
