Aston-Martin One-77
The One-77 was easily the biggest tease of the show. It was supposed to showcase the future of Aston styling, but the company never actually removed its custom-tailored car cover (in a lovely charcoal pinstripe). Either Aston is getting into the bespoke suit business or, more likely, the car just ain't done yet. When it finally does appear in October 2009, it will house a 700-plus-horsepower V-12 and some custom-tailoring work of Aston's own: Each of the 77 produced will be built by hand and sold for a very post-recession-friendly $2 million.
Lamborghini Estoque
Four-door sedans from Aston Martin and Porsche are weird enough, but Lamborghini as well? True story. The V-10-powered Estoque isn't yet headed for production, but its appearance in Paris suggests Lambo is seriously considering such sacrilege. Not everyone's convinced there's a market for these things: Rival Ferrari has claimed it would never betray its heritage by making a sedan. Translation: Look for the F430 wagon sometime in early 2011.
Ferrari California
Thanks to a nearly six-month rollout, you've probably already seen this new Ferrari at least once. But it's worth seeing again. After all, that smiling mug suggests a bit of pre–financial crisis optimism, which is only echoed by the fact that the car's first production run has already sold out. So what does nearly $256,000 get you? A V-8 that's good for 0 to 62 in under four seconds housed in an unapologetically gorgeous package. And while the version showcased in Paris was sky blue, we wouldn't be caught dead in anything but cherry red.

It just makes sense that someone driving cars like these should be wearign a custom suit. If you own one of these beauties but have yet to purchase your suit with a matching pinstripe please drop me a line. The look is not complete yet. Happy Driving.
