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.

OCTAD.ONE: Eight Automotive Artworks, One Chance Each, Now Arriving on duPont REGISTRY

There are no editions here, no reissues, and no second chances. OCTAD.ONE, the halo initiative from British automotive print house Limited100, is built around eight 1-of-1 large-format artworks, and the moment one is acquired, its source file is permanently locked. The piece will never exist again in any form. Founded by Simon Wright, whose Nottinghamshire-based Limited100 has spent years capping every print run at 100 and shipping handcrafted automotive wall art to collectors across more than a dozen countries, OCTAD.ONE inverts that model entirely. Where Limited100 built its name on accessible exclusivity, OCTAD.ONE asks what happens when the run is cut to one. Each of the eight works is produced at a continuous, monolithic 340cm scale; a size associated with gallery installation rather than print retail - as a seamless fine art pigment print under acrylic glass, offering UV filtration and exceptional colour depth. At £38,888 each, acquisition includes full white-glove logistics: custom-built protective casing, pre-cleared international customs handling, and certified on-site installation by art engineers trained to handle the piece's ~114kg mounted weight. The inaugural eight span four international photographers: Tim Wallace's LaFerrari and Ferrari Monza SP1, Thomas Boudewijn's Ferrari Enzo and Mercedes-AMG One, Paul Ward's Longnose Jaguar D-Type Continuation, Lola T70 Mk3B, and Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza, and Rudolf van der Ven's Pagani Zonda C12, chassis #001. “With Limited100, I figured out early that 100 was the right number; enough exclusivity to matter, enough scale to build a business,” said Wright. “OCTAD.ONE asks a different question: what happens if the run is just one? Eight pieces, four artists, no repeats, no second chances. It's the same obsession with craft I started with on a Lamborghini Miura print in my front room, just taken as far as it can possibly go.” Unlike Limited100's online store, OCTAD.ONE has no public checkout. Acquisitions are handled through private, direct dialogue, in keeping with the confidentiality its collector base expects - a fitting complement to duPont REGISTRY's own audience of serious collectors and enthusiasts. OCTAD.ONE is curated by Limited100, which remains the collector's route into the wider world Wright has built: over 700 handcrafted, Made in Britain-certified prints shipped to 500+ collectors worldwide, working with the same roster of award-winning automotive photographers behind the Octad. Collectors following the collection on duPont REGISTRY can expect more soon; OCTAD.ONE is preparing a full listing on the new duPont REGISTRY Store, bringing the initiative directly to one of the platform's most engaged collector audiences. Prospective collectors may submit a private enquiry via octad.one to be among the first contacted. Visit OCTAD.ONE Website About OCTAD.ONE OCTAD.ONE is a collection of monumental automotive fine art, presenting investment-grade, 1-of-1 works directly to collectors outside conventional gallery structures. It is curated by Limited100. About Limited100 Founded by Simon Wright and based in Nottinghamshire, Limited100 is a Made in Britain-certified producer of handcrafted, limited-edition automotive wall art, working with award-winning photographers including Tim Wallace, Thomas Boudewijn, Paul Ward, and Rudolf van der Ven.

Ghost Guard Solves A Problem Every Car Collector Knows

Every great idea starts with a problem to solve, and for Ghost Works CEO Taylor, who has 10+ years of experience in exotic car detailing, it’s an issue he realized every car collector faces while properly maintaining their prized possessions. It's the sight of a battery tender lead or EV charging cable draped across the hood or fender. Whether it's a Ferrari parked in the garage on a trickle charger or an electric hypercar like the Rimac Nevera plugged in overnight, those cables can easily rub against the paint over time, making it prone to swirl marks or light scratches. And while we’ve all been witnesses to car-filled garages littered with microfiber towels bandaging the issue, sticking out like a sore thumb, Ghost Works eliminated the issue with the Ghost Guard. Designed to ditch the rags and keep collections looking showroom fresh, Ghost Guard sets the new standard for cable management as a universal solution that protects everything from that one weekend track toy to an eight-figure, investment-grade collector car. Rather than relying on adhesive or permanent mounts, the patent-pending accessory uses static tension to hold charging cables and battery tender leads away from painted surfaces. It fits everything from standard battery maintainer cords to larger Type 2 EV charging cables, making it a simple answer for both traditional collector cars and modern EV exotics. It's a clever idea born from a common frustration, proving that sometimes the best automotive accessories are the ones that solve everyday problems without adding unnecessary complexity.

Vapor Trapper™ Kills The Gas Smell In Your Garage

Anyone who has owned a carbureted classic knows the smell. You pull the cover back on a Saturday morning, and the whole garage hits you with raw fuel. It gets into everything. The workbench, the seats, the shop rag you left on the fender. For years, the fix was either to live with it or bolt on a disposable plastic charcoal canister and hope it lasted the season. The Vapor Trapper™ is a better answer, and it has the hardware to back that up. How it Works The idea is simple. Your fuel tank needs to breathe. As fuel warms, cools, and sloshes around, the tank has to vent or it can't do its job. The problem is what comes out of that vent: fuel vapor, and plenty of it, going straight into your garage, your storage area, or the cabin of the car itself. The Vapor Trapper installs inline on the fuel tank vent and captures those vapors before they ever reach you. The tank still breathes the way it should. You just stop smelling it. That last part matters more than it sounds. A lot of vent solutions either restrict the tank or seal it up in ways that create their own headaches. This one is built to let the tank do its job while doing yours. Here is where it separates itself from the plastic canister crowd. The Vapor Trapper is machined from premium 6061 billet aluminum and made in the USA, and it looks the part. On a show-quality build, most venting hardware is something you tuck away and hide. This is something you can leave in plain sight. It reads as a finished component, not a compromise. It's a patented design, and it installs inline without any real drama. Because no two builds are plumbed the same, it comes in multiple sizes, fittings, and configurations, so it works whether you're setting up a chopped hot rod, a restomod, a custom truck, a side-by-side, or a boat. The feature I'd point to first, though, is that it's rechargeable and fully serviceable. Disposable charcoal canisters are exactly that. You run them, they saturate, you throw them away and buy another. The Vapor Trapper is designed to be serviced and put back to work, which makes it a long-term piece rather than a consumable. It's backed by a lifetime warranty, which tells you how the company sees it too. You don't have to take an enthusiast's word for it. The Vapor Trapper is SEMA Garage Certified, and it had a strong showing at SEMA 2025. It was a runner-up for Best New Street Rod & Custom Car Product and a runner-up for Best New Powersports & Utility Vehicle Product, which is a rare double given how far apart those two categories usually sit. It also picked up two SEMA Media Choice Awards, and Hagerty named it one of the show's top new products. Recognition that spans street rod, powersports, and the media side is not an accident. It's a small part solving a problem a lot of people quietly put up with. Professional builders, restoration shops, collectors, and enthusiasts across the country are already running the Vapor Trapper on classic, custom, high-performance, and collector vehicles. The appeal holds up wherever it shows up. It solves a genuine annoyance, it looks like it belongs on a serious build, and it doesn't end up in a landfill at the end of the year. If you've been chasing that fuel smell around your garage, this is the part to look at. It's the rare fix that works, lasts, and actually makes the finished car look better under the hood.

Imperial Moto: Where Coffee, Motorcycles, and Culture Come Together

Miami has no shortage of coffee shops, but few combine specialty coffee with motorcycle culture like Imperial Moto. What started in 2016 as a passion project has grown into one of South Florida's most recognizable lifestyle brands, bringing together coffee lovers, vintage motorcycle enthusiasts, and creatives under one roof. Founded by entrepreneur Matt McKenna, Imperial Moto was never meant to be just another café. Instead, it was created as a community hub where craftsmanship, design, and conversation are just as important as what's poured into your cup. And for those who want to bring that lifestyle home, Imperial Moto's apparel and gear are now available on duPont REGISTRY, making it easier than ever to wear the brand beyond the café. The brand's first major milestone came in 2017 with the opening of Imperial Moto Café in Miami's Little River neighborhood. From the beginning, the space reflected the same attention to detail found in custom motorcycles, with carefully sourced specialty coffee, a welcoming atmosphere, and an appreciation for quality. As demand continued to grow, the company expanded beyond the café by launching lifestyle apparel, retail coffee products, and a wholesale coffee program that now supplies some of Miami's top restaurants. The opening of a second location at Aventura Mall in 2022 proved the concept could thrive well beyond its original neighborhood. Whether you're searching for one of the best coffee shops in Miami, looking to experience specialty coffee in South Florida, or simply want a place where great coffee and automotive passion come together, Imperial Moto offers an experience that's every bit as memorable as the machines that inspired its name. If you're looking to add a piece of that lifestyle to your own collection, you can now shop Imperial Moto apparel and gear through duPont REGISTRY. Shop All Imperial Moto Source: Imperial Moto

Double Garage Space with Autostacker

The sleek design of Autostacker’s compact, space-saving parking lift lets homeowners double their existing parking capacity while having a neat appearance for a home garage. Its galvanized steel construction can lift most cars, light trucks, and SUVs weighing up to 6,000 lbs. Most large vehicles fit comfortably under the lift thanks to its 8 feet of underside clearance. Getting in and out of your vehicle is made easier by Autostacker’s scissor lift design. Autostacker is made without side posts, so you have more room to get in and out of your vehicle without accidentally elbowing steel or maneuvering around those beams. To protect the door of the vehicle underneath the elevated deck from unintended dings, the lift’s patented Door-sentry™ protectors provide a cushion inside the scissor arms. Its scissor design allows it to rise nearly 8 feet. Simple push-button controls move the lift from lowered to full-rise in just 55 seconds. As the lift rises, automatic safety locks engage continuously across five different height positions. For those who own custom vehicles with minimal ground clearance, Autostacker offers 48-inch Extended Aluminum Approach Ramps. The ramps provide a more gradual approach to the Autostacker deck while featuring a non-slip textured surface to enhance traction. The approach ramps attach securely to Autostacker's existing ramp system for seamless integration without modifications. Autostacker’s Extended Aluminum Approach Ramps give vehicles with minimal ground clearance a little extra help. Plus, Autostacker isn’t only for cars and trucks. The patented design of its platform deck means an Autostacker lift can handle almost anything with wheels, like golf carts, ATVs or riding mowers. Ready to make an Autostacker yours?

Light Brew for a mild, easy-to-drink coffee experience Light Brew reflects the growing demand for gentler, less intense coffee options. JURA’s exclusive Light Extraction Process automatically prepares Light Brew specialties with 10% less ground coffee and brews at a lower temperature (approximately 140 °F). The result is a specialty that’s mild, aromatic and ready to enjoy immediately. Hot Brew for a bold, robust coffee experience Hot Brew delivers full-bodied and aromatic specialties, strong espresso and coffee. For even more intensity, a special setting increases the amount of ground coffee used per shot, extracting the fullest flavor and aroma from short specialty beverages. Elegant Design The design of the C9 reflects the aesthetic cues of JURA’s premium models. Its convex-concave front and iconic wave-shaped accents create a distinctive look, while the chrome-plated cup grille adds a refined touch. The 2.8-inch color display is seamlessly integrated, ensuring intuitive and efficient operation. Smart Technology For those who want connected convenience, an optional Wi-Fi Connect accessory allows the C9 to be paired with the JURA Operating Experience (J.O.E.®) app, enabling control directly from a smartphone or tablet. The user can watch instructional videos, customize product settings, create taste profiles, and more from the app. The JURA C9 has an actual retail price of $1,799. It comes in three high-gloss front panel finishes – Piano Black, Piano White, and the new Piano Inox. It is sold at Williams Sonoma, Crate & Barrel and jura.com. JURA offers the largest assortment of fully automatic coffee machines, with actual retail prices ranging from $1,199 to $5,499. For more information, visit jura.com. Visit jura.com
