Hans,

Both the R8 and the TT Convertible are not to be on sale until spring '07, so this must mean that the TT-S will not be due for release until a lot later, as it looks like you were right saying the LA motorshow will be it's first showing.

As for the M3 and the GT2, am I not right in thinking that the Frankfurt Motorshow is just after the Paris show, would this not be the logical place for BMW and Porsche to show both their performance models to their home markets, especially as the R8 will be stealing the limelight at the Paris show.
