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 Best Star Wars Cars

The Star Wars franchise has been around for decades, yet we still don't have a working Millenium Falcon or X-Wing that we can fly. All we want, space engineers, is to be able to play space Space Chess (Dejarik) while flying through the cosmos. Is that too much to ask for? Probably. So, in the meantime, we'll have to settle with Star Wars cars that were created with the movies in mind. Check them all out below! And while you can't rocket into space, you CAN fly across the pavement in supercars that we have for sale on duPontREGISTRY.com.Supercars for Sale Hot Wheels Darth Vader Car Stormtrooper Dodge Charger and Challender w/ Kylo Ren Viper 2018 Nissan Maxima – Kylo Ren’s TIE Silencer Lamborghini Murcielago Star Wars Car " title="YouTube video" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen> X-Wing Carship Star Wars Porsche 2018 Nissan Rogue Poe Dameron’s X-wing with BB-8 Boba Fett Audi R8 source AT-M6 2018 Nissan Titan

McLaren 570S: 10 Facts You Need To Know

Are you looking for an affordable supercar? McLaren stunned the world with the new McLaren 570S for sale, the first example of their "Sports Series". Most enthusiasts were quick to label it as an entry-level car aimed at amateurs, but this couldn't be farther from the truth. 10. Light & Strong All McLarens are built around a one-piece carbon fiber monocoque. The first example was named the MonoCell and it was the foundation for the 12C. Innovations to improve stiffness and lower the door sills resulted in MonoCell II for the 570S. The bare chassis is only 165 lbs! Another plus is the dihedral doors that make entry and egress better than most. 9. Little Brother? Although it is their entry-level model, the 570S is actually longer and wider than the 650. Various optical illusions by the clever bodywork allow it to appear smaller than the Super Series cars. 8. Magnificent Mileage The 570S was the first McLaren to use equal length exhaust headers. This change keeps costs down when compared to tuned length pipes used on the Super Series. By using more conventional parts and a curb weight of 3,100 lbs, our dealers have reported customers getting well over 20 miles per gallon. 7. Smart Technology The first McLaren with Stop/Start technology also includes new software that should be standard on every car. It comes with a battery charger because McLaren knows you have a daily driver. It has a unique charging wave to keep the lithium-ion battery in perfect shape. I was in a hurry to move a 570S Spider at our duPont Registry Live event in Nashville last year. I unplugged the charger from the wall and laid it into the trunk while still plugged into the car. My attempts to move the car were in vain. If the car senses the charger is plugged into its port, the car will not shift out of park...This tiny line of software could be the difference between a dead battery or a car that runs over its owner. McLaren 570S Races to 212 mph on the Autobahn 6. Traditional Suspension The 12C launched with the most advanced suspension of any car. Also found under the 650 and 675, the PCC or positive chassis control replaces shocks and springs with high-pressure hydraulics just like an F1 car. No sway bars needed because the pressure from one corner is spread around the system instantly. For the 570 series, they knew buyers wanted a more traditional system. So the 570S has dual wishbones, coil springs, and magnetic shocks at each corner. Even with sway bars, it is comfy in touring mode and a grippy beast on the track. It feels more connected to the road than the upper level cars, which is fine by me. 5. Unique Body In the old days, chassis were made of metal and bodies were composite. In the curious case of the 570S, the body panels are aluminum and the chassis is carbon fiber. This must have Corvette engineers scratching their heads because McLaren has turned the automotive world upside down. Aluminum panels are much easier to repair than the carbon ones found on the Super Series cars, and they are another way the cost savings were passed to the customer. Complete Mclaren 570S Price & Specs 4. Dealer Network One of the biggest concerns in purchasing an exotic is were to find a service department. The quality of the cars speaks for itself, which has prompted McLaren dealers to spring up across the nation. McLaren Automotive doesn't have ties to any other manufacturer, so many high-end dealers have added McLaren to their lineup. A quick glance at the world's best resource for exotic cars for sale will give you an idea of how popular they have become. 3. Aftermarket Intensity McLaren's engineers think outside the box. Not only does it make for a reliable car, it has also sparked a fire in the aftermarket world. Out friends at Hypercar Development brought their triple-turbo 12C to our office and scared everyone in a 5-mile radius. The car is so intense that Michelin uses it to benchmark new rubber. 2. Race Proven Power Every modern McLaren uses a 3.8-liter twin turbo, which was bored out to 4.0 for the new 720S. Instead of designing an engine from scratch, someone remembered Nissan's LeMans cars from the 90s. They were incredibly reliable and light, so McLaren redesigned it for street use and the rest is history. 1. No Comforts Compromised If you want an exotic car that doesn't sacrifice creature comforts, the 570S has everything you need. The first McLaren with a vanity mirror also has American sized cup holders and a glove box. storage compartments in each door are perfect for small items, and they stay shut when the doors are raised. These are just a few of the interesting facts about the McLaren 570S. Click on the link to find one near you, and you will not be disappointed! Stay with us for all your McLaren updates.

Heartwarming Story of Longtime duPont REGISTRY Fan

Sitting in the backseat of the car, Eason Syler, at only eight years old was on a trip to Florida to buy a car with his father. As they made their way down the road they passed a large building with the words “duPont REGISTRY” illuminated on the side. Years ago Eason would head over to his local library and catch up on what was going on in the automotive world reading our magazine each month (even if they were a few months old). Upon noticing the building he begged his dad to stop in and check the place out. Eason and his dad met the receptionist at the front desk who began to give them a tour of the cars in the museum, he remembered seeing a Mercedes SLR McLaren, a few Porsches and Hulk Hogans Dodge Viper. After spending time looking at everything, our receptionist sent Eason on his way back to Tennessee with his hands filled with duPont REGISTRY magazines and posters. A few weeks later we received a letter in the mail thanking us for letting him stop by, which included a drawing of a car. Fast forward 15 years, we received a job inquiry from a gentleman by the name of Eason Syler whose name sounded vaguely familiar. It turns out that the receptionist that gave him that tour was recently going through her desk and stumbled upon the letter and picture. We then realized after some research that Eason was the same aspiring reader who stopped by the office as a kid. With the help of Easons parents, we cooked up a plan to get him back down here for our latest Cars and Coffee. This past weekend our scheme came to fruition with Eason and his family in attendance at our monthly duPont REGISTRY Cars and Coffee event. After an hour or so we asked them to meet us at the main tent where a gentleman wearing green pants, who goes by the name of Mr. duPont appeared with a gift for Eason. We gathered around while Mr. duPont presented Eason with the letter he wrote and the drawing of the car framed and signed “Happy Motoring” by Mr. duPont himself. It’s not too often that something like this happens so we wanted to show Eason our appreciation and thank him for being a loyal reader and duPont REGISTRY fan overall!

Porsche 930: Specs, Price, Photos & Review

What has become the most beloved Porsche 911 of all time is the Porsche 930. It is the product of experimenting with turbos in the late 60s and early 70s. Their goal was to only build enough cars to homologate the racing of a Porsche 911 Turbo. Project 930 required many changes to the suspension and body that it became its own model. This will focus on the 930, which was Porsche's internal code for the turbo cars. Larger brakes and a four-speed transmission set it apart from the base Porsche 911 Carrera which had a naturally aspirated 3.2-liter flat-six. It arrived in the US for the 1976 model with 276 horsepower. This was shocking to the industry, as pollution-choked V8s couldn't offer anything comparable. Every example came with a single large turbo, and that is why the Porsche 930 Turbo gained a reputation as the "Widowmaker." Almost all turbos have a 4-speed manual, so It took a few seconds to spin up the big turbo. Boost eventually arrived like a freight train, and it sent many professional drivers into the wall or the infield. The 1989 930 Turbo was the only one to receive a 5-speed transmission, and it actually hurt performance by allowing the car to fall out of boost between gears. Porsche 930 Turbo Cabriolet Specs: Price: $49,720 Engine: Turbo 3.0L Flat Six Horsepower: 282 hp Torque: 278 lb-ft 0-60: 4.9 seconds 1/4 Mile: 13.1 @ 109 mph That's why if you are considering a Porsche 930 for sale, it needs to be scrutinized inside and out by a reputable Porsche shop. These are old cars now, and survivors will need suspension bushings and pushrod tubes addressed. Rust is also a common issue. The rear cross member and motor mount area can be expensive to fix, so be sure to check them out. Here is the data you need to make an informed buy: A Porsche 930 for sale is a dream-find for many Porsche purists. If it is a numbers-matching condition, it is the most desired Porsche Turbo on the market. Convertibles were not popular in the '70s, but by the '80s they were back in vogue. So the Porsche 930 Cabriolet and 930 Targa were released in 1985. It was also the 80's that saw the aftermarket develop Porsche 930 twin-turbo kits. These Porsche 930 turbo kits allowed for an instant boost by eliminating turbo lag. 930 Production Numbers The first three years had 3.0-liter engines and were known just as 930 Turbo, and 2,819 cars were produced. From 1978 to 1989, the name was changed to 930 Turbo Carrera, and the engine was enlarged to 3.3 liters. As one of the fastest cars on the market, 18,7770 vehicles were built. The 3.3-liter engines were the first Porsche 911 to have intercoolers from the factory. This allowed for more boost, but it caught the eye of the US EPA. The 3.3-liter cars were never legally imported after 1979, they used the gray market to get around DC's dumb laws. Nevertheless, they made it in, and since they are over 25 years old, the government doesn't care anymore. Porsche 930 Turbo Coupe Specs: Price: $37,000 Engine: 3.0 or 3.3-liter Flat Six Horsepower: 282 Torque: 298 lb-ft 0-60: 5.5s 1/4 Mile: 13.7 @ 1.6 mph 930 Prices 1977 Carrera Turbo Coupe Retail: $30,630 1988 Carrera Turbo Cabriolet Retail: $ 85,060 You can see the jump in base prices through the years. Porsche knew their customers were willing to pay for the quality and performance. If you adjust these for inflation, you won't even come close to what they are selling for. Porsche stopped selling the 930 Turbo in the US at the end of 1979. They continued to be imported through gray-market importers, who charged a premium for the luxury. Porsche realized this was a massive error on their part and the 1988 model's retail reflects its acknowledgment of the American market's booming economy. 930 S Slantnose Racing the 930 developed many iconic body modifications, but none have been as famous as the 935 race car. To maximize aerodynamics, the nose and fenders were redesigned for high-speed tracks. They were known as "Flachbau" or flat nose. Most examples were naturally aspirated Carrera models, powered by the 3.2 engine with a 5-speed manual. The Holy Grail would be a 930S (Turbo Slantnose) Cabriolet. Here in the US, dealers and 930 owners dubbed it the Slantnose 930 S, and it was a popular upgrade in the early 80s. Porsche 930 Carrera Slantnose Specs: Horsepower: 270 Torque (lb-ft): 318 0-60 mph (seconds): 5.2 Top Speed: 139 mph 1/4 Mile: 14.5 @ 95 mph Weight (lbs): 2,668 Production: 800 Porsche realized its popularity and decided to build them in-house. Built-in limited numbers, production peaked in 1985. If you are considering a 930 Slant Nose for sale, keep in mind they were also offered by Kremer, Ruf, and other aftermarket companies. No matter who built it, they are a piece of history with a price tag to match. 930 Speedster To celebrate the anniversary of the 356 Speedster, Porsche built 2,100 examples of the 930 Speedster. Only 800 came to the US. They are turbos with all non-essential weight removed. The windshield is short and raked, and an aerodynamic decklid covers the rear seats when the top is down. The naturally aspirated 3.2 was state of the art, and it had fast numbers for an 80's car. Porsche 930 Speedster Specs: Horsepower: 215 Torque (lb-ft): 195 0-60 mph (seconds): 5.9 0-100 mph (seconds): 15.2 1/4 Mile: 14.5 @ 95 mph Weight (lbs): 2,668 Production: 800 Browse Porsche 911 For Sale

Supercar and Hypercar Rev Off: Which Sounds the Best?

One of the most important aspect of a supercar is its sound. In fact, most companies put a ton of money into the development of their cars' sound. For example, the Yamaha's musical instrument division helped develop the Lexus LFA's exhaust note.(Related - Top 5 Car Apps on the iTunes App Store)But, there is always the argument as to which car sounds the best. To try and give everyone an idea of how some of the world's most extreme supercars sound, I've compiled some revving video below, starting with the LFA.

How To Decode Any Car's VIN

If you are reading this, you are probably aware that all street-legal cars have a VIN, Vehicle Identification Number. The Vehicle Identification Number is unique to each car, much like DNA or a fingerprint. After being in the industry for years, many of us can look at a VIN and instantly react with humor or sadness. This might make your significant other question your mental health, so let break down a VIN so everyone can understand.VINwiki: How To Import Your Dream CarInstead of 23 chromosomes, all modern cars have a VIN consisting of 17 characters, and it is located at the base of the windshield on the driver's side. They are also located in other locations of the car to prevent chop shops from selling stolen parts. The first character is the country of origin. The US is, of course, #1, but we've built so many cars that 4 and 5 are also USA VINs. Canada is 2, Germany is W, and England is S. The most shocking is that Japanese cars all begin with J... just kidding.First Number/Letter Examples: A-H = Africa J-R = Asia S-Z = Europe 1,4,5 = United States 2 = Canada 3A-37 = Mexico 6/7 = New Zealand or Australia 8/9 = South America Japan’s Nissan R34 GT-R Highway Patrol Car is RealHere is where it gets intense. The next two spots are the manufacturer. I've owned a dozen Camaros over the past 2 decades and I have 1G1FP87 burned into my mind. This is the beginning of any Camaro hard top performance model. V6 cars and the Camaro Berlinetta were 1G1FS87. Let's break that down. 1 is USA. G1 is GM. F is for GM's F-body (either Camaro or Firebird), and P87 was a V8 powered hardtop. The next digit would either be N or L, designating Norwood, Ohio or Los Angeles assembly plant. After that is a digit assigned by GM's Fisher Body division, a story for another day. Next comes information on the interior color, body color, and finally the car's year and its build number among all Camaros of that model year. This car is for sale downstairs, tell us what you think it is in the comments belowIf you are looking for a Range Rover, every VIN in recent history begins with SALME1548. No, it's not a reference to salami. just unfortunate luck on the part of Land Rover. SAL is the United Kingdom, Austin Leyland (which were the owners of Land Rover in the old days). ME154 denotes a 4 door, full-size Range Rover HSE, and 8 is the number of cylinders. If the next digit is a 6, it was built in 2006, and the remaining digits are color codes and the build number. If you really want to have fun with learning the language of the VIN, our friends at VINwiki have a database that will blow your mind. Don't say we didn't warn you because you will fall down a rabbit hole of automotive intrigue.Model Year Vin References: A: 1980 or 2010 B: 1981 or 2011 C: 1982 or 2012 D: 1983 or 2013 E: 1984 or 2014 F: 1985 or 2015 G: 1986 or 2016 H: 1987 or 2017 J: 1988 K: 1989 L: 1990 M: 1991 N: 1992 P: 1993 R: 1994 S: 1995 T: 1996 V: 1997 W: 1998 X: 1999 Y: 2000 1: 2001 2: 2002 3: 2003 4: 2004 5: 2005 6: 2006 7: 2007 8: 2008 9: 2009 Learn More About VINs
