Aston Martin will be showing off a road-going version of its Vantage GT3 race car at the upcoming 2015 Geneva Motor Show.

Although the brand hinted as much in a recent teaser video, Aston’s PR Manager tweeted a new teaser image of the car with the caption, “Geneva 2015,” confirming that the high-performance variant of the Vantage will bow at the show in Geneva.

As would be expected from a race car, the Vantage GT3 should be about 220-pounds lighter than the Vantage S while the 5.9-liter V12 will likely be tuned to make more power than the current 565 hp. Being born on the racetrack also means that the GT3 will sport plenty of aerodynamics bits to increase downfoce including a large rear wing.
