The exotic cars you'll experience on your California driving tour
If you’re hungry for a gorgeous, driver-friendly supercar that’s quick-as-lightning, the new release update to the incredible R8 delivers, and then some. Consider your wish granted.
Solely responsible for the revival of the modern Bentley brand, the Continental GT is the perfect grand tourer, sporting a unique twin-turbo W12 and a truly luxurious interior.
Powered by a monstrous 6.2L supercharged V8, the C8 is a supremely competent supercar. More importantly, the ‘Vette is a proud all-American effort, perfect for blasting through Route 66.
The successor to the adored 458 sees the eager-revving and naturally aspirated V8 retired in favour of a turbocharged powerplant. This supercar will propel you from 0 - 100 in just three seconds.
The Huracan is a fantastic combination of fast, loud, and sharp. With an ingenious 4WD system, the Performante offers impressive technical specs and performance to boot.
Be warned: while there are many fast cars out there, few have the performance capabilities that require drivers to up their game so profoundly. Are you ready for this beast?
Hailed by critics and fans alike as one of the finest 911s of the modern era, the 991 GT3 features the legendary 4.0L flat-six capable of singing far beyond 8,000 rpm for a truly exceptional driving experience.
The true pinnacle of automotive luxury, the Dawn adds an exquisitely engineered convertible roof to an already serene and blissful driving experience.
