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.

Ferrari of San Antonio Delivers a 296 Speciale Finished in Verde Nürburgring

Introduced as Ferrari’s first V6-powered supercar, the 296 GTB caught a lot of flak from collectors and purists, almost side-eyeing the hybrid-assisted, twin-turbocharged platform as an outcast within a lineup of 8- and 12-cylinder engines. And while it certainly proved to be an entirely new direction for the brand, its performance figures and stats are undeniable, winning over a whole new community of owners and enthusiasts. The 296 legacy follows that natural progression of Ferrari of perfecting its craft before launching a serious track-focused version of its road-going counterpart, thus the birth of the Ferrari 296 Speciale. GALLERY-EMBED The team at Ferrari of San Antonio took to its Instagram to show off a recently delivered 296 Speciale in what looks to be one of the best configurations we’ve seen yet. Shying away from some of the manufacturer's well-known, historical shades, this spec features a vibrant Verde Nürburgring finish with Argento Nürburgring racing strips and racing numbers. The choice of color really highlights how far Ferrari went to add extra aero and cooling while shedding weight, thanks to a ton of exposed gloss carbon-fiber components. Even the 20-inch wheels, crafted exclusively from carbon fiber, add to its performance, now 40% lighter than standard forged wheels. GALLERY-EMBED Inside, the cabin carries over the same motorsport-derived DNA as some of Ferrari’s most stripped-down track cars, ditching standard options like floor mats and adding in safety measures like a strapped-in fire extinguisher. In addition to a full carbon fiber tub, black and what looks to be Rosso Dino Alcantara layer the dash and two-piece carbon sport bucket seats. Tech being a driving force for the 296 Speciale, LED screens and haptic touch buttons keep the driver connected, while a passenger-mounted display lets the co-driver see real-time performance data. Ferrari of San Antonio Inventory At the heart of the Ferrari 296 Speciale is an upgraded version of the 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6, paired with an electric motor to produce 880 horsepower. The engine borrows lightweight titanium connecting rods from the F80 hypercar, features a lighter crankshaft, and incorporates Formula 1-inspired engine management to extract even more power. The result is Ferrari's most powerful rear-wheel-drive production car to date, launching from 0-62 mph in just 2.8 seconds, reaching 124 mph in 7.0 seconds, and continuing on to a top speed of more than 205 mph. Now, as Speciale variants start to land in showrooms, we can’t wait to see future Ferrari 296 Speciale specs. Source: Ferrari of San Antonio Instagram

Ferrari of Central Florida Shows Off A Rosso Corsa Daytona SP3

Born from the racetrack, Ferrari’s legacy as a motorsport icon has always influenced the road-going cars that roll off its production line, connecting owners to something bigger than a badge. And while every Ferrari carries that link, the marque’s ultra-exclusive Icona Series dives even deeper, using timeless 1950s and 1960s racing designs as inspiration for modern marvels like the Daytona SP3. The team at Ferrari of Central Florida recently welcomed a piece of Maranello’s history to its dealership, showcasing one of the 600 Ferrari Daytona SP3s in the world. Directly linked to history and to some of the early racing icons that came before it, this specific Daytona SP3 pays homage to its lineage with Ferrari’s classic Rosso Corsa finish, a color that translates to “Racing Red” and dates back to the first 125 S built in 1947. Other classic elements find their way into the build, including hand-painted Scuderia shields and a rear engine cover painted in the brand’s historic Argento Nürburgring shade.A close glimpse reveals that the interior is layered in vibrant blue alcantara, which may seem like a modern touch, but actually pulls from other idols like the 1962 Ferrari 250 GTO. The cabin of a Daytona SP3 is like the perfect blend of past and present, keeping things simple and driver-centric while incorporating state-of-the-art tech and materials to make the driving experience as close to an actual race car as possible. The most impressive aspect of the Daytona SP3 sits at the rear, where Ferrari’s monstrous 6.5L naturally aspirated V12 sends 829 horsepower and 514 lb-ft of torque to its rear wheels. With few to zero public roads to experience the full capabilities of one of Ferrari’s most powerful hypercars, a race track is where drivers will be able to test its 2.85-second 0 to 60mph time and 211mph top speed. Making a cameo appearance at the dealership for all to see, you have to wonder what else Ferrari of Central Florida has up its sleeves, or inside its garages.

One of the Most Incredible Lineups of Ferraris You'll Ever See

Traditionally, buying a car ends the moment you grab the keys and drive off the lot, only returning to the dealership on your next service visit, but with Ferrari, it doesn’t stop there. Entering the realm of Enzo and an ownership that's better recognized as a feeling of family, after-sales is exactly where owners start experiencing what it means to be a part of Ferrari. Whether it's organized rallies and track days where you can unleash the full performance of these supercars and hypercars, or a more intimate gathering where owners can converse about what drives their passion for the brand, there’s a sense of community that goes beyond delivery day. The team at Ferrari of Newport Beach is proud to be that link for owners, recently co-hosting an incredible event showcasing pinnacle Maranello models, captured in incredible imagery by photographer Mike Noga. Set under the showroom lights of Finish Line Auto Club in Costa Mesa, California, the night of fuel-driven festivities welcomed what could only be best described as a timeline of Ferrari’s very best. From end to end, the space was lined with timeless classics like the Ferrari 288 GTO, Ferrari F40, Ferrari Enzo, and Ferrari 599 GTO, and that doesn’t even include what was stored inside each garage bay. On the more modern front were multiple Ferrari LaFerrari (and LaFerrari Aperta) specs, as well as other special series cars like the Ferrari F12tdf and Ferrari 812 Competizione (and Competizione A). Some of the Italian marque’s direct roots to racing even made an appearance in the form of the latest SF90 XX Stradale, proving that on or off the track, these cars are meant to be enjoyed anywhere and everywhere. But the real star of the show, the all-new Ferrari 849 Testarossa, sat at the front of them all, almost as the frontrunner representing both the next chapter and the future of the brand. The low-slung 849 Testarossa showcased a stunning Bianco finish with tons of exposed carbon that extends to its two-tone carbon and paint-matched wheels. For many, it was a first look at Ferrari’s latest-and-greatest, and for others, it was a peek at what’s to come very soon. All in all, the night was just a glimpse into something you don’t always get to see and appreciate from a car brand, which is what ownership and passion look like when you buy that Ferrari you’ve always wanted.

Ferrari Lake Forest Delivers An SF90 XX Spider Finished i...

More SF90 XX's land in the U.S. Born on the track and destined for roads worldwide, Ferrari has and will forever incorporate that race-driven link into each and every one of its handcrafted cars. And while some models disguise performance with sleek lines and modern comforts, others let their racing roots shine as part of Ferrari's exclusive series. The all-new Ferrari SF90 XX checks that box, in both Stradale and Spider versions, as the brand's first-ever road-legal supercar derived from its ultra-exclusive XX client racing program. Showcasing one of the most impressive specs to hail from Maranello, the team at Ferrari Lake Forest recently celebrated the delivery of this one-of-a-kind Ferrari SF90 XX Spider. @ferrarilakeforest/@nisflix With just 599 examples slated for production, the owner of this SF90 XX Spider made the most of Ferrari's Atelier configuration opportunity with a stunning Violetto Dino finish that shies away from the brand's traditional color palette. The metallic purple shine is accentuated by tons of exposed gloss carbon trim that highlight the aero-focused areas of the car, directly channeling air for cooling and downforce. Other motorsport characteristics like its massive fixed rear wing, carbon fiber wheels, and carbon ceramic brakes make the Ferrari SF90 XX Spider the perfect roadworthy supercar with racing DNA. @ferrarilakeforest/@nisflix Displayed proudly with its open-top design, the cabin features a set of carbon bucket seats layered in a pristine Pelle Bianca leather with matching Viola stitching. Black Alcantara and matte carbon fiber complete the SF90 XX Spider's lightweight look and feel, while modern media and amenities bridge that gap between a purpose-built race car and a weekend road warrior. @ferrarilakeforest/@nisflix Powering the Ferrari SF90 XX Spider is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine paired with three electric motors, making a combined 1,016 horsepower. It's the most powerful road-going Ferrari ever built, channeling its hybrid system through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission that delivers instant torque and brutal acceleration. The result is 0 to 62 mph in just 2.3 seconds and a top speed of around 199 mph. As Ferrari continues to ramp up production, with new models already being added into the mix, we can't wait to see more jaw-dropping SF90 XX specs rolling off the production line.

Ferrari Beverly Hills Unveils A Nero Ferrari SF90 XX Spid...

Ferrari's first road-legal XX series supercar lands stateside in a menacing spec. As the automotive world continues to evolve and transcend, we, as drivers and enthusiasts, are witnessing brands and manufacturers push the boundaries of performance unlike ever before. We live in a day and age where producing 1,000 horsepower is no longer a challenging feat for engineers, which leaves power-hungry masterminds like Ferrari to drum up something entirely new for their thrill-seeking clientele. Derived from its exclusive customer race program, the Ferrari SF90 XX and SF90 XX Spider channels the spirit of track-only icons like the FXX-K EVO and 599XX in a road-legal format. The ultra-limited production run makes history as it's the first time that Ferrari ever engineered a race-bred XX Series supercar for the road. And while customers patiently await the delivery of their own examples, the team at Ferrari Beverly Hills is proud to showcase the recent delivery of a truly incredible Ferrari SF90 XX Spider. @ferraribeverlyhills/@paid2shoot Instagram With only 799 coupes and 599 spiders slotted for production, this Ferrari SF90 XX Spider is already making waves being one of only a handful of examples currently in the U.S. This spec shies away from traditional Ferrari shades like Rosso Corsa and Giallo Modena, and instead, opts for a more stealth-inspired Nero finish that subtly conceals its areo extras. Adding contrast while highlighting the SF90 XX Spider's lightweight design, this build comes optioned with gloss red carbon fiber exterior trim. The burgundy carbon cross-weave catches the light perfectly and exposes areas of the car like the front splitter, hood vents, side intakes, engine cover, and rear wing. @ferraribeverlyhills/@paid2shoot Instagram Inside, the cabin remains calm, cool, and collected, with a stripped-down interior that pays homage to predecessors like the 360 Challenge Stradale, 458 Speciale, and 488 Pista. Black Alcantara serves as the base layer, with vibrant touches of dark red on the racing wheel and bucket seats to mirror the use of exterior carbon. Ferrari very much so focused on the styling of the SF90 XX interior to lean more toward fit and function rather than refined and luxurious. @ferraribeverlyhills/@paid2shoot Instagram The Ferrari SF90 XX Spider takes things to an entirely different level with its electrified powertrain, pairing a twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 with three electric motors for a combined 1,016 horsepower. Power is sent to all four wheels through an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, making for lightning-fast gear changes and relentless acceleration. The result? A 0–62 mph time of just 2.3 seconds and a top speed that brushes past 200 mph. View All Ferrari Beverly Hills Inventory Source: @ferraribeverlyhills/@paid2shoot Instagram

Ferrari Quebec Welcomes The First-Ever 830HP Ferrari 12Ci...

The new 12Cilindri makes it to Montreal. Constantly pushing the boundaries of supercar evolution with innovative models that embrace its heritage as a world-renowned Italian marque, Ferrari continues to set the tone for the future of performance while incorporating design characteristics from timeless icons like the 250 GTO.

It first debuted last year at the F1 Miami Grand Prix as part of the manufacturer's 70th anniversary. Since making its official debuts to global markets on a world tour, the Ferrari 12Cilindri has already gained traction as one of the next must-have Italian supercars amongst passionate collectors and enthusiasts. The team of prancing horse professionals at Ferrari Quebec is proud to present the first-ever Ferrari 12Cilindri to arrive in Montreal. This 12Cilindri commands attention on the dealership's showroom floor, showing off a stunning Blu Corsa finish with contrasting gloss black accents. Satin-finished five-spoke wheels act as the traction-grabbing source for Ferrari's newest front-engine supercar, while Giallo carbon ceramic brakes provide the stopping power needed for both the road and track. Inside, the cabin complements Ferrari's craftmanship with a minimalistic interior design that perfectly balances between comfort of competition. Carbon sport bucket seats come layered in rich grey leather and Alcantara with vibrant Gaillo striping that pulls the entire configuration together. The most impressive aspect of the 12Cilindri lies underneath its reverse-latched bonnet, which houses Ferrari's legendary 6.5L V12 engine. The naturally aspirated powertrain produces an incredible 830 horsepower, contributing to its jaw-dropping 2.9-second 0-60mph time and 211mph top speed. Making history as the first Canadian Ferrari dealership to take delivery of the 12Cilindri, Ferrari Quebec is ready for more to roll off the transport trucks very soon.
