So either six wheels or one then?? That makes an SUV look a possibility, or a unicycle...

Beginning to think it might be the EVA GT in a new more Aero like body and as a soft top.
If they have replaced aluminium with magnesium in most places then the 3.7L V6 should have more than enough power.
Peter the 'magnesium experiment' failed. No carmaker is using it for body panels, only as an alloy constituent in castings for gearboxes, other casings and structural members. As I understand it, the plasticised sandwich coatings necessary to stabilise magnesium body panels against atmospheric oxygen, moisture etc were incompatible with superforming, bonding etc and other aspects of the manufacturing process - let alone trying to repair bodywork outside the factory. A brave experiment, but way too bleeding edge... As an example of of how unstable magnesium alloys are, I have a BAR Honda F1 (remember them?) wheel in my dry, warm study which leaves a pile of white dust underneath it as it slowly corrodes in air... Superform do manufacture magnesium alloy panels using their process although I have no idea if it is for automotive purposes.

They also make pannels in titanium, which might have been a better choice.

Tickets all purchased online. I will be there at about 13:00 Thursday 5th. The easiest way for me to get there is by train, an early start from home, about 6:30, and a late arrival after midnight. Just as well I can sleep on the train

As these photos are in public domain, I don't believe I am breaking the confidence of MMC by posting them on TM... Should we expect a celebrity reveal of the new car at Geneva 2015?

A good, honest, question ...without Googling, does anyone want to take a guess at what the base car was?
