The Bertone GB110 hyper car boasts an impressive 1100 hp and is able to achieve 0-60 mph in 2.79 seconds with maximum speed of over 236 mph.
Unfortunately for those looking to get their hands on one of these, only a limited edition run of 33 vehicles will be produced to celebrate Bertone’s 110th anniversary.
Pricing for the GB110 has not been released but judging from comments made by Bertone comparing the price to a piece of artwork we can safely assume it won’t be for those with shallow pockets.
