Carbon, kevlar & titanium: GTA Concept

Brace yourselves for another very special supercar! The Spanish manufacturer GTA motor plans to sell 99 800-horsepower monsters this year! We don't know a price for this thing yet, but seeing the target audience, and the limited production-count, we don't expect buyers to receive a small bill.

The GTA Concept is made of carbon, kevlar and titanium. The driver can enjoy the ride with the sun in his or her hair, thanks to the Concept's large panorama-roof.
This car will be powered by a Pontiac V10. This will get the car to a topspeed of 340 km/h. This completely handbuilt car will get a six-speed gearbox and carbon-ceramic brakes. Until now, the GTA Concept only exists as a 1:4 scale model. This year, a 1:1 prototype will be made, and the finished product is scheduled to hit the markets in 2009.

Um... you guys do realize that Pontiac does really good in the Rolex series right? I know this is not F1 or DTM but if you look at the field, it's not exactly ho-hum manufacturers.

I didn't realize that an engine with 800 horsepower was something easy to do
