    The Geneva Motor show is a strange animal in the world of industry shows. Where any other show features the car manufacturers themselves, the show nestled in the Southwest of Switzerland also has a large presence of the design houses responsible for penning the metal in the other booths. With Volkswagen's purchase of Giugiaro Italdesign earlier this year, then, there's no better stage to present what the two are capable of than at the Geneva show.

    What you see here is just that, the first two concepts to come from the partnership, named the Go! and the Tex (sounds a little familiar).

    Nice! I always liked Giugiaro's work for VAG, ever since I purchased my MkI Scirocco back in 1977. (He has retired from the firm, so I'm guessing that these cars are not penned by him.)

    I like this better!

    It appears very Civic Type-R-ish.

    I hate to admit it, but the Civic looks better IMHO.
