As usual, there’s a lot of new models popping up for the Paris Motor Show but the latest 911 Carrera is probably head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to excitement levels.

BMW and Zagato have revealed their latest coming together at the 2012 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the BMW Zagato Roadster.
