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.

485-Mile Tailor Made Ferrari 812 Competizione For Sale

Front-engine V12 Ferraris have always been a staple of the Italian marque, dating back to 1947 with the Ferrari 125 S. Since then, modern marvels like the 812 Superfast have continued that legacy, integrating brutal naturally aspirated performance into a rear-wheel-drive grand tourer. Taking things even a step further, Ferrari launched the 812 Competizione as an ultra-limited, track-focused finale to the beloved 812 series. The team at Ferrari of San Francisco is pleased to showcase this one-of-one 2023 Ferrari 812 Competizione as part of its extensive inventory of supercars for sale on duPont REGISTRY. Already limited to just 999 examples worldwide, this particular 812 Competizione sets itself apart from the others, being one of the most extensively configured Ferrari Tailor Made builds. Under the owner’s complete creative control, they chose to shy away from the traditional colors of the Maranello manufacturer, opting for an incredible Double Barrel Red finish with tons of metallic flake that shimmers and shifts in the sunlight. Exposed gloss carbon and Argento Nurburgring accents contrast against the paint, along with 20-inch forged diamond wheels and matching Argento Nurburgring brake calipers.Inside, the cabin carries over a similar theme. The Extrarange interior features a Nero Alcantara base with special trim and contrast stitching that mirrors the Double Barrel Red shade, found on the dashboard and door pulls. The two-piece Nero carbon bucket seats tie together the entire spec, with silver Alcantara and red fabric seat inserts, and Argento Chiaro embroidered Cavallinos in the headrests. The dedication plaque reading "Specially Crafted with Ferrari for MJR" is a reminder that this 812 Competizione was clearly commissioned with intent rather than assembled from a standard option list.Under the hood lies Ferrari’s naturally aspirated 6.5L V12, sending 819 horsepower to the rear wheels and screaming to its 9,500 rpm redline. That power is managed through a quick-shifting 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, sprinting from 0 to 60mph in just 2.8 seconds, with an overall top speed of 211mph. Showing just 485 miles on the odometer, this 2023 Ferrari 812 Competizione is now for sale on duPont REGISTRY for $3,599,999. View Listing

Why the Ferrari 599 Is Becoming a Modern Collector Favorite

The Ferrari 599 series sits in a very specific moment in Maranello’s history, when the front-engined V12 grand tourer was still a flagship shift instead of today’s nostalgic throwback. Introduced in 2006 with the 599 GTB Fiorano, it succeeded the 575M Maranello and immediately reset expectations for what a front-engine Ferrari could deliver. It was a grand tourer engineered with the kind of performance and precision usually reserved for mid-engine supercars, wrapped in an elongated body that carried long-distance comfort at its core.Designed by Pininfarina in collaboration with Ferrari’s own styling team, the 599 GTB balances between a casual, spirited driver and a track monster, which still holds up today. The long hood and short rear deck preserve the classic Ferrari proportions, but it’s far more advanced than its predecessor. Massive side intakes, an aero-focused underbody, and an integrated rear spoiler all served a functional role at high speed. Inside, it maintained Ferrari’s GT philosophy, with a comfortable cabin trimmed in leather, aluminum, and optional carbon fiber, all centered around a driver-focused layout well suited for cross-country driving.Underneath, the 599 GTB is powered by a 6.0L naturally aspirated V12 derived from the Enzo, producing 612 horsepower and a character that defined Ferrari’s late-2000s era. Power is managed through either a now highly sought-after six-speed manual or the F1-style automatic gearbox before the dual-clutch era fully took over. An aluminum spaceframe chassis kept weight relatively light while offering the rigidity for track conditions, giving the 599 a dual personality that could cover miles and still deliver genuine supercar lap times when unleashed.As the platform evolved, Ferrari began to sharpen the series. The 599 HGTE (Handling Gran Turismo Evoluzione) package was the first step, introducing stiffer suspension, revised tuning, and a sharper chassis. It didn’t change the personality of the car entirely, but it added precision that made the GTB feel more confident on demanding roads. Then came one of the most significant models of the era, the 599 GTO. Limited to 599 cars, it took inspiration from the exclusive 599XX track program and turned it into something far more extreme. With 661 horsepower, reduced weight, sharper aero, and transmission tuning, the GTO became the most focused expression of the 599 and a modern version of Ferrari’s historic GTO badge.Along with these special editions, Ferrari also produced several one-off and coachbuilt chassis that pushed the 599 platform further into collector territory. The 599 SA Aperta, limited to just 80 examples, reimagined the car as a front-engined V12 roadster with a shortened windshield, created to celebrate Pininfarina’s 80th anniversary. There were also bespoke commissions such as the 599 GTB China Edition, along with various Tailor-Made examples through Ferrari’s personalization programs, each adding another level of rarity to an already limited-production model line. The Ferrari 599 series shapes itself as one of the final evolutions of Ferrari’s traditional front-engine V12 GT formula before modern electronics, dual-clutch gearboxes, and hybridization found their way into production. From the standard GTB to the HGTE, GTO, and SA Aperta, the 599 defines one of the last great analog-feeling grand tourer eras from Maranello.

Ferrari’s Naturally-Aspirated V8 Era Is Officially Becoming Collector Gold

Ferrari 360 Modena The market for collector cars has exploded over the last decade. From analog Porsche 911s and gated Lamborghinis to low-production homologation supercars, enthusiasts and collectors are chasing the cars that deliver something increasingly rare in the today's automotive world, character. And as the industry rapidly shifts toward downsized turbocharged engines and hybrid-assisted powertrains, a new generation of Ferrari models has quickly skyrocketed in popularity and value, becoming some of the most desirable modern classics on the market. Ferrari F430 16M Ferrari’s naturally-aspirated mid-engine V8 era, including the Ferrari 360, F430, and 458 generations, represents what many enthusiasts now consider the sweet spot between analog emotion and modern usability. These cars weren’t just expensive Italian supercars built as eye candy or for city cruising. They were deeply rooted in motorsport, inspired heavily by Ferrari’s Challenge racing programs and Formula 1 development. Limited-production variants like the 360 Challenge Stradale, F430 Scuderia, and 458 Speciale symbolized the lost art of homologation, taking race-inspired engineering and reimagining it into road-going collector cars that are still exciting to drive decades later. Ferrari 458 Speciale Aperta Today, these Ferraris are experiencing a resurgence unlike ever seen before, and some people are starting to kick themselves for not buying them sooner before the market took off. Collectors are falling back in love with naturally-aspirated engines, lightweight chassis, and the kind of driving experience that’s raw, connected, and requires full attention, something a lot of today’s turbocharged supercars struggle to replicate. From the gated manual feel of the 360 Modena and the race-inspired edge of the F430 Scuderia to the screaming 9,000-RPM magic of the 458 Speciale, every one of these Ferraris represents a special moment in time before hybrid powertrains and electrification started changing the supercar world for good.

Why The 458 Speciale Is One Of The Best Modern Ferraris

Ferrari has an immense pedigree of incredible cars, with countless breathtaking creations that showcase speed, luxury, engineering prowess, and design beauty, and for a car to stand out as one of the best Ferraris is no easy feat. The Ferrari 458 Speciale is one of those cars, managing to be the creme de la creme and be noted as one of the greatest performance cars ever made, but what makes it special isn’t as simple as being the fastest, most powerful, or most expensive. However, that is what makes it a car that will always be special and remembered. As top speed and power records continue to eclipse each other, especially as electrification has taken stats like horsepower and torque figures to a whole new level, the Ferrari 458 Speciale remains one of the greatest moments in Ferrari’s history, and whether that’s in tangible or intangible ways, its everlasting legendary status is impossible to deny. To those unfamiliar with the legacy of the Prancing Horse, it might be hard to understand why prices for the Ferrari 458 Speciale remain so incredibly high as time passes, but those who are in the know see it as a modern gem. So why is the Ferrari 458 Speciale so special, no pun intended? One of the most important reasons is that it’s the end of an era. The Ferrari 458 Speciale was the last, and arguably the greatest Ferrari to be powered by a naturally-aspirated V8 engine. A 4.9-liter unit, the engine mustered 597 horsepower and 398 lb/ft of torque, giving the car the ability to get from 0-60 mph in just 3.0 seconds, with a top speed of 202 mph. Its Fiorano Circuit lap time was only half a second slower than the F12berlinetta and its V12 engine, and its revised design, focused on aerodynamics and enhanced performance, was the result of a collaboration between the Ferrari Styling Center and Pininfarina. While the exact number is unknown, an exclusive, limited number of 458 Speciale coupes were made, but even more exclusive is the Ferrari 458 Speciale A. Standing for “Aperta,” the A designated that this version of the 458 Speciale was a Spider, and with its open top, it reached a slightly lower top speed of 199 mph. Only 499 examples of the 458 Speciale A were made, making it even more exclusive and desirable. With its rarity, its incredible performance, and its status as the ultimate naturally-aspirated V8 Ferrari, the 458 Speciale will always be one of the greatest Ferraris to ever take its place in the Prancing Horse’s stable. If you’re interested in owning one, it would certainly be a great addition to any Ferrari collection or exotic car collection.

This thorough examination guarantees that only the finest vehicles earn the CPO badge, reassuring buyers that their dream car has been meticulously vetted. One of the key benefits of buying a Ferrari CPO supercar is the added value it brings to future ownership. Not only does it come with a minimum of two years of warranty coverage, but it also includes roadside assistance, making ownership as worry-free as possible. These perks sweeten the ownership experience while making the car more attractive when it's time to sell, as future buyers can be confident in quality and maintenance history. The CPO program essentially offers a new car experience with the added benefit of a pre-owned price, making it an appealing option for supercar owners.
