description
whereas valmet used to unveil a new coupé-convertible prototype almost every year, the 2006 geneva motor show ended in disappointment : the finnish coachbuilder only displayed an updated version of its 2004 a4 coupé cabrio, now based on the facelifted audi / the single-frame grille and refined headlights are there indeed, but technical innovation has been forgotten in the process / the coachbuilder claims that the three-piece retractable hardtop has been optimized, but improvements are visually undetectable / let's hope that next year valmet finds its way again
