I figure the British one has part of its appeal is that they don't have ads from automakers thus don't have to kowtow to any one automaker and not knock their cars. Plus they have access to the latest Lamborghinis, Ferraris, etc. where American shows in the past have precious little access or at least can't beat them with a cane like the Brits. I think the Brits are more worldly when it comes to an overview--these are guys that pop over to every event on the Continent. We can't have a show that will match theirs unless we have equally well traveled bon vivants.
