sandrafish9: Bufori Geneva

If you’re squinting your eyes wondering if you’ve seen this car before, then we’ll spare you the brain-racking. This retro-looking luxury car is the Bufori Geneva and it carries that "Geneva" name because it actually made its debut at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show.

More than two years after it first made waves at a major auto show, the Malaysian automaker is bringing the Geneva back for its grand Asian debut at the 2012 Beijing Auto Show.

For the re-created model that was built exclusively for Tan Sri Yeoh Tiong, founder of the YTL Corporation, Bufori spared no expense in bringing up the level of luxury. The overall design of the vehicle remains largely unchanged, particularly the retro-classic look that further pays tribute to old luxury courtesy of the rear-hinged coach doors and the carbon and kevlar body. Meanwhile, the interior - with all its leather goodness - of the Geneva carries a high-level of class usually reserved for the Bentley’s and Rolls Royce’s of the world. Check out the built-in fridge at the back, the wooden trays, the ample legroom, and the plush leather treatment as clear signs that the Geneva isn’t just your ordinary sedan.

Under its hood, the Geneva carries a pretty impressive Chrysler-sourced 6.1-liter HEMI V8 engine that produces 430 horsepower, good enough for a 0-60 mph time of six seconds with a top speed of 161 mph.
