These days, when even a Tesla sedan gives you supercar acceleration, you really have to push the design and engineering envelopes if you want to craft a truly head-turning sports car.
As to where to debut such a vehicle, that is easy. The annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, taking place at the end of August in California, was the finale of Monterey Car Week. Once all about rebuilt classic cars, it is now the setting for the most exclusive of model launches. Very much a place to be seen among fellow connoisseurs, the event offers a far more intimate location for a car launch than any sterile auto show and ultra-luxury car producers readily embraced the opportunity.
