The Geneva Motor Show always gets the coolest debuts. Last year, all in one building, the McLaren P1, LaFerrari, and Lamborghini Veneno all debuted within a matter of hours. An awesomeness overload of the highest magnitude promptly followed.
While this year certainly won't see the same blitz of hypercars that last year's show caused, it's still going to host some incredible cars. We're excited about a ton of them, but these 15 Exciting Cars That Are About to Debut at the Geneva Motor Show are the ones we're watching most closely. Get the stopwatch.

Hyundai Intrado
Hyundai's rise to power has astounded us. The Japanese auto industry took 30 years to do what Hyundai and Kia have done in about five. Now Hyundai is ahead of the game when it comes to Hydrogen cars, and the intimidating Intrado concept might be the future of motoring.
IED PassoCorto
Hyundai comissioned the IED, a prominent design school in Turin, to design a concept car, and this is the gorgeous result. We would be over the moon if Hyundai decided to take this concept and run with it, providing a mid-engined sports car for the masses.
Rumor has it that it's under consideration for production.
Alfa Romeo 4C Spyder
It's the same pseudo-affordable mid-engined, carbon fiber, sports car from Alfa Romeo that we're anxiously awaiting, but with an open roof. Sounds like we might need a press car and a trip up California's PCH again.
McLaren 650S
The McLaren 650S is essentially an MP4-12C that has received a full suite of enhancements courtesy of the P1's development. It looks sexier than the 12C, it's way faster, and it's not that much more expensive. The only problem is that we have no idea why anyone would buy a 12C after today.
Koenigsegg Agera One:1
Koenigsegg has claimed that this car is going to simultaneously take the fight to the McLaren P1 and the Bugatti Veyron. 1,360 hp in a 1,360 kg body will do that. Estimated top speed is more than 280 mph and the beast develops as much downforce as the McLaren.
But can it match the precision and overall refinement of the Macca?
Aston Martin V8 Vantage N430
We've already established that a Vantage N430 might be worth more than a kidney. Why? Because it's designed to evoke Aston Martin's Vantage-based race cars as much as possible.
Jaguar XFR-S Sportbrake
We're really jealous of the Euro-only wagon selection, and we're about to get even more jealous. Jaguar's XFR-S cars are always berzerk and wonderful, and now they're freakishly pracitcal and wonderfully wagonized as well. The want is strong, but there's no way this thing will make it over to the USA.
Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe
The new S-Class is exquisite, but it has too many doors and the wrong roofline for straight-up sex appeal. Why not offer extreme luxury at high speed by transforming it into a sporty grand tourer? There's no reason not to, so Mercedes is dropping the S-Class Coupe, and it looks fantastic.
Lamborghini Huracan
We've seen a lot of the Lamborghini Huracan, but this is going to be the press' first opportunity to really get all up in its crevices and see what it's made of. We have high hopes for this little Lambo, just like the 700 people who bought it in the first month of sales.
Volvo Concept Estate
What a sexy profile. This is an absolutely lovely shooting brake that we really, really hope is rear-wheel drive. If this thing manages to have a bit of a sporting edge to it as well as just looking fantastic, we'll be over the moon.
And then there's the chance that in a few years Polestar might make a psychotic sports car version.
Ermini Seiottosei Barchetta
If you're younger than 70, and our demographics info seriously suggests that you are, we'll forgive you for not knowing anything about Ermini, an Italian sports car manufacturer. Regardless of the company's 50-year absence from the industry, a concept will debut at Geneva, and we're interested.
Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II
Rolls-Royce knows its cars are fantastic, and in no danger of seeming old and played out. That said, the designs do require occasional refreshment. The Ghost is the latest Royce to be examined by the design team's magnifying glass, and we're interested to see what changes have been made.
Whatever ItalDesign Giugiaro is Bringing
Last year, ItalDesign Giugiaro dropped the Parcour concept, which is the one concept we most wish was a production car. This year Giugiaro is doing something, and it has headlights. That's all we've got so far, but we're interested.
Ferrari California T
The Ferrari California has gotten a lot of negative attention, but we've always thought it to be a fine example of the softer, touring side of Ferrari, which has indeed always been there. That said, it may have looked a little too much like a lizard.
This is much better, and the additional 70 hp and 185 lb-ft of torque won't hurt either.
Maserati's New Sports Car
Maserati is going to drop a new sports car. We don't know much about it yet, but we do know that it's going to be smaller and more sportive than the GranTurismo. This car might actually be a stretched, V6 version of the Alfa Romeo 4C, which would be straight-up brilliant. Maserati is targeting the Porsche 911 and Jaguar F-Type with this car.
