Geneva Motor Show 2009
March 14, 2009
Some of the most renowned tuners made amazing debuts at this year's Motor Show in Geneva. Even in today's economy, the top European tuners held nothing back when setting trends for the new year.
| ABT |
Recognized as the elite of all Audi and VW tuners around, ABT made a bold statement with their AS5 and their VW Scirocco. Showing off it's new stripes at Geneva, the Audi AS5 sports the new white and red. Pictures don't do the paint scheme justice, as only in person do you truly appreciate the matte 2-tone scheme. Joining the AS5 is ABT's latest addition to the Volkswagen line-up. The stunning green Scirocco. Even though the Scirocco isn't available in the U.S. just yet, it's still a great glimpse of what's to come in ABT's future designs.
