Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0

The Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 is a monster of a car. It reached 60 in only 3.8 seconds before moving on to 100 mph in 7.8 seconds then reaching its limit at 192 mph. The 1/4 mile blew by in 11.8 seconds and it could lap Nurburgring in 7:27.0. All those feats were made possible because of the 4.0 liter, naturally aspirated flat six that could produce a max of 500 hp at 8250 rpm and a max torque output of 399 lb-ft at 5750 rpm. It produced 125 hp per liter and its power/weight ratio is 5.99 lbs/hp.
The weight of the car with a full tank is only 2998 lbs, there were only 600 made and they cost 185k a pop.

2014 Geneva Series Finale Double Feature-Aston Martin V-8 Vantage N430 and DB9 Carbon Special Editions

Aston Martin V-8 Vantage N430
The V-8 Vantage N430 is based on the N420 back in 2010. The N430 has 10 more hp than the N420, 430 hp to the previous car's 420 hp, mainly thanks to Aston Martin putting a 4.7L V-8 in the front. Aston has the 0-60 time at 4.6 seconds and the top speed is 190 mph. The rear wheels get power via the 7-speed Sportshift II tranny. The N430 will cost $150,000 and you will have to go to Europe to get one since it isn't for sale in the U.S.

It comes in 2 colors, black or white, and depending on which one you get, it has a Carbon Black or Carbon White logo to separate it from the pack.

Geneva Series #4 The Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse Rembrandt Edition

This Bugatti is named after Ettore Bugatti's younger brother, Rembrant Bugatti (considered one of the most famous sculptors of the 20th century), and is the 4th installment in the "Les Légendes de Bugatti" series (after "Jean-Pierre Wimille", "Jean Bugatti", and "Meo Constantini"). This edition has an 8.0L W-16 that comes with 1106 lb-ft of torque and 1200 horses. Bugatti had this car go to 60 mph in 2.6 seconds and it maxes out at 253 mph. This car will only set you back $2.7 million there are only going to be 3 made and I bet they are sold out already. Comment if you want me to do posts on the other cars in the Bugatti Legends Series. Source: topspeed.com

Geneva Series #2 Koenigsegg One:1

Let me start off by saying this car is my favorite car at Geneva this year. It is an absolute monster! If you haven't heard the One:1 stands for its crazy 1:1 power-to-weight ratio. This carbon fiber beast is the worlds first megacar (It is called a megacar because 1360 hp is one megawatt). It weighs 1,360 kilograms and produces 1,360 hp! This car is supposed to hit 280 mph and goes 0-400 km/h in approximately 20 seconds and it handles great.  It has a 7-speed, ridiculously fast, dual-clutch and a paddle shifter with electronic differential. There is an aluminum 5.0L twin turbo V-8 with 1371 Nm of torque. The Koenigsegg is an aerodynamic marvel. It has a movable rear wing, hydraulic actuators, sculpted panels, and much more! It has everything another supercar could dream of. How they cut the weight down to 1360 kg is amazing and that is with a half tank of gas and all other liquids filled. How do they do it? Simple, everything on the car is carbon fiber, I mean everything. Wheels, interior chassis, monocoque, everything. The tech is also amazing. The car was built on a request to make an amazing track car that can be driven on he road. It has active suspension and variable ride height, along with GPS and an app to log your track times. There will be only 6 cars made, they will cost $2M and they are all sold out. Bottom line, this is an amazing car and I wish I had one.

Geneva Series #1 McLaren 650S

Welcome to the start of the Geneva Series. The 1st episode will feature the McLaren 650S. This beast has P1 and 12C tricks incorporated. If you glanced at it without knowing that it was the 650S, you would mistake it for the P1. I know because that's what I did at first. The body is unmistakably  borrowed from the P1.The newest McLaren supercar pumps out 641 bhp and reaches 62 mph in 3 seconds flat. The top speed is 207 mph and it will do a quarter mile faster than their F1 car. McLaren says that this car is more 'fun' and you don't have to be a pro driver to unlock its capabilities. The pricing is about $326,500.
