1. 2014 Porsche 918 Spyder
Porsche plays the Ace of Spades in
Frankfurt with an 887-horsepower plug-in hybrid.
The players, the hustlers and everybody who loves new cars
and future cars focused their attention on Germany's Frankfurt Auto Show this
week to see who's coming out with what and who can impress the journalists and
the car-buying public with their genius. If you've never been to an auto show,
it's a bit like a rugby scrum where all the world's carmakers try to unnerve
their competitors and inspire their customers.
Our editors scoured the nine halls of the 2013 Frankfurt
Auto Show to come up with this list of Greatest Hits. Some of these stars of
the show are production cars hitting showrooms and driveways soon, some are
"concept" cars in the purest sense, and others are concepts destined
for production if the public response is positive.
