McLaren W1 First Drive: Ferocious Hypercar Transcends the Track

You know things are getting serious when McLaren rolls-out the ‘1’ suffix. The origin story is, of course, the very first road car McLaren ever built, the F1. Designed by visionary Formula 1 aerodynamicist and engineer Gordon Murray, it arrived in 1992 and rendered all other supercars obsolete. The tiny, lightweight F1 embraced carbon-fibre material technology, adopted a radical centre seat driving position with two passengers set back and either side and was powered by a 6.1-litre V12 engine from BMW that might as well have been passed down directly from the Gods. Game-changer? That doesn’t even come close to describing its impact, even if at the time sales didn’t come easy… The P1 was very different. Rather than a unique side project from the Formula 1 team, it was instead a statement piece for McLaren Automotive, a new road car division still in its infancy. It arrived in 2013 and was a wild-eyed showstopper. It traded the long-legged gait and supple suspension of the F1 for a weaponized hybrid system capable of delivering 903bhp and huge blue flames from its drainpipe exhaust. In Race mode, it lowered by 2-inches and its massive concave rear wing extended into the sky. The P1 was all about aerodynamic downforce, crazed acceleration and a snorting, angry soundtrack that mixed venomous twin-turbocharged V8 with the manic whirr of electric motors. Not so much a car as a force of nature. And now there’s this: The W1. It’s a true successor to the P1 with a similar brief and, on the face of it, it evolves rather than radically reinvents McLaren’s vision for the ultimate hypercar. This is not a criticism. How could it be when the result is this dramatic and has such staggering, other-worldly potential? The W1 has 1258bhp delivered to the rear wheels. It’s capable of 0-124 mph in 5.8-seconds, the quarter mile in 9.6-seconds at 167 mph and produces 2205lbs of downforce at 174 mph. The active aerodynamics – particularly a rear wing that extends way out beyond the rear of the car – are pure performance art and deliver massive aerodynamic efficiency. The result, aside from looking extremely cool, is that the W1 is McLaren’s fastest road car around a racetrack. Ever. Their benchmark circuit is the breath-taking Handling Track at the Nardo proving ground in southern Italy, where the W1 beats their previous benchmark, the flyweight McLaren Senna, by three seconds per lap. Or “a lifetime” as they call it in racing. Maybe two lifetimes! Core to the W1’s performance is the new ‘Aerocell’ carbon fibre tub. With integrated seats and a raised footwell to allow for inboard pushrod-operated front suspension – which in turn gives air a clean path to the huge underbody diffuser – it’s light, stiff, space efficient and has been instrumental in McLaren realising a full ground-effect concept. Just like last year’s F1 cars, which were the fastest ever made. There is also an active front wing and the aforementioned complex rear wing dubbed ‘Active Long Tail’. All of which is very admirable. But the ‘anhedral’ or gullwing doors and the fantastically shirnked-wrapped feel to the minimalist, highly-focussed interior are a pretty good side effect. The W1 feels special. Those fixed seats are perhaps a shade more upright than expected, and the driving position is less obviously racecar than, for example, the Aston Martin Valhalla or Ferrari F80. However, once you’ve adjusted the pedals (they move on a slider) and the delicate, slim-rimmed and alcantara-trimmed steering wheel, there’s an overwhelming sense of purpose. The cabin is so tightly tailored and imparts a sense of lightness and agility before you so much as start the all-new 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which makes 916bhp all on its own and revs to 9200rpm. Reach up to a roof-mounted control panel to find the starter button. Maybe this fighter plane trope is a little corny, but somehow you feel thrilled rather than manipulated. The W1 has a sense of humour as well as all that motorsport-derived sophistication. There’s a short delay, but when the engine does fire it’s instant – as the high-powered hybrid system negates the need for an old-school starter motor. A sharp flare of revs tells you that this engine is hyper-responsive and angry. On some deep level your brain and body have been sent all the signals required to prepare for something new and intense. Ahead of us, an empty Mugello racetrack, so press and hold the blue button next to the red starter to select Race mode. The centre display graphic shows the W1’s transformation in real time as it lowers by 37mm at the front and 17mm at the rear whilst simultaneously undocking all that active aero goodness. Race mode is not road legal and is geo-locked. You can show your friends and neighbours the aero dance, but it won’t allow you to select a gear to actually drive unless you’re at a circuit. Incidentally, the rocker switches either side of the display binnacle allow further options now: Toggle up the Handling control on the left for Race+ (for F1-spec super smooth tracks) or stick to Race for gnarlier ones. On the right toggle select ‘GP’ for sustained performance over a stint or ‘Sprint’ to unleash all 1258bhp for a time attack. There’s also a DRS and Boost function on the steering wheel. But I guarantee you won’t have the mental capacity to use them… Exit the pitlane, pin the throttle and W1 takes maybe a millisecond or two to gather its might (the gearing stretches to around 60mph in first, nearly 100mph in second, primarily to aid traction), but then lunges at the first turn with incredible ferocity. It instantly feels light, almost like inertia is no longer a thing. McLaren really does prize lightweight engineering, and at 3084lbs (dry) the W1 has a 278lbs advantage over the Ferrari F80. Plus, Ferrari uses figures for cars fitted with every single carbon fibre option. In reality, the gap is probably wider still. The impression of agility and stunning control continues as the track is unravelled at startling pace. The electric motor mounted to the side of the new 8-speed dual-clutch transmission is good for 342bhp and 324lb ft and it boosts any low rev lethargy the new flat-plane crank V8 might have (spoiler alert: It doesn’t appear to have any), so the W1 just feels massively, almost impossibly powerful at any revs. Even so, there’s real reward for wringing it out to 9200rpm and the power curve feels superheated but organic, too. In Race mode the steering – still hydraulically powered – has less assistance and it is noticeably heavier than other McLarens. However, that resistance is welcome as it gives you something to push against and imparts so much information about the front grip level. New Pirelli Trofeo RS tyres with a bigger front footprint than P1 or Senna really help. The front-end feels incredibly secure and the rear-axle follows with perfectly-aligned precision. The whole car feels super-stiff, completely locked into the surface and inspires confidence, but there’s an inherent agility and adjustability that means you’re quickly confident to push at its limits and really impose yourself on the chassis. It’s such a complex car but the driving experience is intuitive, and the driver feels a key contributor rather than just amazed (or terrified) observer, holding on for dear life. Every dynamic ingredient really is shockingly effective and yet has a subtlety and lightness of touch. From that delicious steering to the incredible brakes, the W1 just feels so mission-focussed, so hooked-up. Only the new 8-speed gearbox is a slightly disappointment. It’s fast and punchy, but after the scintillating energy of the Ferrari F80 ’box it feels competent rather than inspired. Other quibbles – it’s okay to quibble when the starting price is $2.1-million before tax and destination charge. Well, that new twin-turbocharged V8 sounds tightly wound and aggressive but if you have a P1 tucked in the garage you’ll miss the snorting, Darth Vader-style soundscape and all the drama that goes with it. Ferrari does this better, too. The F80 sounds deathly dull from the outside but is a riot of turbochargers, electric motors and all sorts of mechanical fury within the cockpit. Even so, the W1 is wildly entertaining on track, and the rear-drive configuration makes it more of a challenge and more satisfying than the F80 when chasing lap times or just sliding around for fun. In the Ferrari, you must second-guess what the front e-axle might do, whereas in the W1 it’s all on you. There are plenty of tools to help, including the ingenious Variable Drift Control, but somehow the W1 is more heroic. Or at least fools you into feeling more heroic – which is surely the point! On the road? Nimble, loaded with feel and sublime response. The ride is noticeably tougher than, say, a 750S but the control is ramped-up too, and with a bit more speed the whole car finds a delicious rhythm. Sport mode for the drivetrain brings some nice turbo whooshes and chirps, but the noise remains high-quality rather than extreme excitement. It is perhaps the one area the W1 feels just a little too tame. Of course, there’s nothing tame about the raw performance… which is genuinely shocking and literally hurts your neck muscles after a few hours. How McLaren has given the W1 such immense traction through just two driven wheels is beyond me. So, is it worthy of that ‘1’? I think so. Perhaps we won’t be talking about $25-million auction results for the W1 in 30 years from now, as we are for the F1. Perhaps it doesn’t quite have the amazing presence and jaw-dropping star quality of the simply gorgeous P1. But it is such an intense experience and the way it marries stunning track performance with delicate poise and entertainment on normal roads is something akin to magic. Maybe not ‘the one’ but definitely a searing, outrageous addition to McLaren’s fiercest family line. Just 399 W1’s will be built and they’re all sold. I’m not surprised at all.

The Porsche Exchange Shows Off A Brand-New 911 GT3 RS Fin...

This GT3 RS found its color outside the range of standard options. Born as a race-bred brand with historical roots in motorsports, Porsche has built its world-renowned reputation and a community of passionate owners and enthusiasts behind its idea of crafting the ultimate sports car. And while performance has and will always remain the focus of its DNA, it goes without saying that Porsche also prides itself on taking a creative and personalized approach to designing its cars. Porsche's Paint-to-Sample Program has allowed customers to configure their 911s using extensive color palettes since the early 1990s, birthing iconic shades like Speed Yellow, Mexico Blue, Irish Green, Ruby Star, and so many others. Highlighting how far Porsche and its PTS program have come, the team at The Porsche Exchange recently showcased this brand-new Porsche 911 GT3 RS in Ipanema Blue. Where colors play a pivotal role in Porsche's history, most come attached with a story or reasoning behind the choice of name. For Ipanema Blue, the rare turquoise metallic finish is named after the crystal clear waters of Rio de Janeiro beach. More commonly seen in 997.2 generation 911s like the Turbo S and Carrera 4 GTS, this 992 GT3 RS is the perfect example of how these influential colors continue to resurface on newer models while cementing themselves in the PTS archives. The vibrant blue finish contrasts beautifully with all the exposed gloss carbon fiber that makes the 911 GT3 RS ultra-lightweight and agile. Inside, the cabin takes a more subtle and stealthy approach with a black leather interior paired with even more exposed carbon. The 992 Porsche 911 GT3 RS is all about precision and performance, starting with its naturally aspirated 4.0L flat-six engine that screams all the way up to 9,000 rpm. It delivers 518 horsepower and 343 lb-ft of torque to the rear wheels, paired with a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. The result is a 0–60 mph time of just 3.0 seconds and a top speed of 184 mph. View all Porsche Exchange inventory for sale on duPont REGISTRY by clicking the link below.

Porsche South Orlando Shows Off The Second 992 911 GT3 RS...

Since its debut to the automotive world in August 2022, Porsche's 992-generation 911 GT3 RS has gained even more traction as one of the hottest supercars on the market. Carrying on the legacy of quite possibly the most iconic GT car ever created, in both a modern and tasteful manner, Porsche honed in on its motorsport expertise with its 992 variant to deliver a true track-like driving experience to its passionate community of owners and fanatics. While the rest of the world focused on the new GT3 RS's performance and market value, the team at Manthey Racing worked quietly in the background to find ways to improve what seemed to be an already-perfect supercar through aero and handling. The result is a carefully curated package of suspension and carbon aero components that are track-proven to take the GT3 RS to the next level. Porsche South Orlando proudly shows off the second 992 Porsche 911 GT3 RS MR in the U.S. If there's one thing to know about Manthey Racing, it's how rare it is to source and acquire a complete MR kit, especially now that the new GT3 RS promises serious performance. Working directly under Porsche as a branch of its performance division, Manthey Racing kits are sold and installed through certified Porsche facilities to guarantee authenticity and quality. This already-impressive white GT3 RS received the full MR kit courtesy of Porsche South Orlando and its expert team of trained technicians. The GT3 RS's exterior becomes even more agile with carbon upgrades to its front bumper, front lip, side splitters, rear diffuser, and underbody panels, which help channel air. But if you want to talk about real aero upgrades, Manthey Racing uses a carbon fiber shark fin, roof fins, larger rear wing end plates, and a two-piece DRS blade to cut through air while providing massive downforce for the straightaways. Paint-matched, lightweight carbon aero disc wheel covers add even more downforce. Cutting lap times without adding horsepower, Manthey Racing's advanced coilover kit gives the GT3 RS a more aggressive track stance while maintaining modern comforts like front-end lift. Only the second of its kind so far and ready to take on any track in its path, this ultra-exclusive 992 Porsche 911 GT3 RS MR now starts its journey thanks to Porsche South Orlando.

Merit Partners Shows Off An Ultra-Rare 1998 Porsche 911 T...

This masterpiece is one of the greatest air-cooled 911 examples existing. Merit Partners in Atlanta, Georgia is known for purveying and collecting some of the world’s most desirable, rare, and legendary performance cars, and Porsche is one of Merit Partners’ specialties. With its latest acquisition, shown off in a new post on Instagram, Merit Partners has gotten its hands on a true masterpiece when it comes to the lexicon of air-cooled Porsche 911 examples. A 1998 model, it represents the very end of the Porsche 911’s air-cooled history, as 1999 saw the introduction of the 996 generation and its water-cooled engine, and the 993-generation car is a 1998 Porsche 911 Turbo XLC, finished in a vibrant yellow with a contrasting black leather interior. However, what sets it apart is the fact that it was fitted with a GT2 aerodynamics kit from the factory, setting it apart as one of an estimated number of less than 5 examples ever made. With the aerodynamic kit, the 911 Turbo is imbued with the racing-focused spirit and character of the coveted and spartan 911 GT2, with a formidable 450 horsepower, as well as the luxurious amenities that the 911 Turbo was known for offering. Along with the rare spec, the car is also loaded with special options and stunning features, making it a rare and exclusive time capsule of what the 911’s pinnacle looked like right before the introduction of the water-cooled 996 generation took Porsche in an entirely different direction as a manufacturer. To say this 1998 Porsche 911 Turbo is a collector-grade masterpiece is an understatement.
