Geneva just got a tenth-of-a-degree more interesting with the announcement of the Aston Martin DBS Volante. For those who don't speak Aston, Volante means convertible.
In the case of the DBS, the convertible top is of the soft variety and it's capable of retracting in just 14 seconds at speeds up to 30mph.
The DBS Volante is powered by Aston's 6.0-liter V12 mated to a six-speed manual gearbox. A six-speed automatic with manual shift capability is optional. Aston Martin expects to begin shipping the DBS Volante in the third quarter and will announce prices next week in Geneva.

Saw the DBS at the autoshow. Looks amazing in Glacial Blue 2.
Co-best looking car with the 599 GTB.

I'll go for the Jaguar just to save a few bucks...but this is a close second.
