If you like shiny things with cool curves that go fast, you’re going to be in heaven…

It must be frustrating to look at so many new cars – and prototypes – and not be able to afford them. The Paris Motor show is always like this; part pleasure, part frustration, but that doesn’t stop a huge number of people going. It’s one of the biggest events on the calendar, filling the entire exhibition site (which is huge)!

This year, new energy sources should be the star of the show, with a number of electric and hybrid cars being presented.

And if you can’t get there in person, you can easily keep up to date with all the news by going to the official Facebook page, checking out the official photos on Flickr, catching up with the Twitter feed, or watching the live webTV: webtv.mondial-automobile.com
