Porsche Carrera GT to debut in Geneva:
At first glance, the optics and overall build of the Carrera GT betray that its origin lies in motor sport. Porsche's latest sports car creation has a thoroughbred racing engine. The ten-cylinder engine with dry-sump lubrication is based on the 5.5 litre V10 naturally-aspirated engine that was developed especially for racing activities. To suit mass production, technicians at the Development Centre in Weissach have increased the displacement to 5.7 litres. The maximum output is 450 kW (612 hp) at 8,000 rpm, the maximum torque 590 Nm (437 ftlb.). The Carrera GT enters whole new dimensions in terms of driving performance. It attains a maximum speed of 330 kilometres per hour and accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 3.9 seconds. The Carrera GT completes the blue-ribband sprint from zero to 200 km/h in 9.9 seconds. An individually developed, manual gearbox, comprising six gears, ensures optimal transmission of the drive power.
The specifications demanded a consistent lightweight construction and that the designers should concentrate on the most essential features of a sports car. With a length of 4.61 metres, a width of 1.92 metres, a height of 1.16 metres and a wheelbase of 2.73 metres, the roadster has a dead weight of 1,380 kilograms

This car is going to be absoluetly awesome. It looks sexy as hell and with that much power it's just awesome, although I expect it to be faster than that with that much power but still, wow.
