About the Event

In March 1991 a BMW super-sports car shone out from the glitz and glamour of the Geneva Motor Show to steal the headlines in spectacular style. The Nazca M12 was the debut creation of Fabrizio Giugiaro, son of Italdesign founder and celebrated designer Giorgetto Giugiaro. Fabrizio was a paltry 26 years old when he conjured up the breathtaking form of this stunning prototype.

A surprise debut that year by Bentley’s Continental R; the car was brought to Switzerland in secret and driven onto the stand.

Alfa Romeo provided a preview of the upcoming 916 series GTV and Spider with the Proteo concept car. It was built on a shortened 164 platform and featured four wheel drive as well as then very much en vogue four wheel steering. Meanwhile, the Chubasco was centre point of the Maserati display; the Gandini-styled V8 mid engined sportscar was set to go on sale in 1992 but never reached production owing to a lack of finances.
