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.

Italian Track Star: The Best Lamborghini Huracan STOs For Sale

Below is a selection of Lamborghini Huracan STOs for sale on duPontREGISTRY.com right now. Each of these Huracan STOs comes packing a naturally-aspirated 5.2-liter V10. This powerful engine produces 640 horsepower and 417 lb-ft of torque. That's enough for a 0 to 60 mph time of under 3 seconds. What's more, the Huracan STO is an absolute monster on the track, as it should be considering this is essentially a street-legal race car. Since the Huracan STOs unveiling, collectors and drivers around the globe have been wanting to get behind the wheel of the extreme Lamborghini. Not only is the STO an absolute monster of a Lamborghini, but it may also be one of the final Huracan variants created. Since its unveiling, we've only seen one other Huracan unveiled, the Tecnica. This new model sits below the STO, allowing it to retain its crown as the most extreme Lamborghini created. For these reasons and many others, the Huracan STO is and will continue to be a hot commodity in the marketplace. All Lamborghini Huracan STO Inventory What does STO mean? "STO" stands for "Super Trofeo Omologato." The STO is named so because it's based on the Lamborghini Huracan Super Trofeo race car, made for the eponymous one-make racing series. It takes that race car's uncompromising on-track performance, and transforms it into one of the most dynamic and race-ready street-legal supercars money can buy. What makes the Lamborghini Huracan STO different than other Huracans? The Huracan was introduced as an all-wheel drive supercar, like other modern Lamborghinis, but the track-focused and thrilling STO opts for rear-wheel drive instead. Other models, like the Huracan Evo RWD, and the Huracan Tecnica which came after the STO are rear-wheel drive as well, but it's a relatively uncommon aspect of Huracan models. In addition, the racing-inspired aerodynamics of the STO are unlike other Huracan models, even the Performante, which was made famous by its incredibly quick Nürburgring Nordschleife lap time. Can you finance a Lamborghini Huracan STO? Absolutely, you can finance a Lamborghini Huracan STO.

Watch IShowSpeed Jump Over Two Moving Supercars

This streamer’s latest stunt involves a certain Fighting Bull. Prolific internet personality IShowSpeed has amassed a sizeable following thanks to his humor and stunts that make his online streams and videos hard to forget. However, he’s upped the ante way further in his latest stunt, which he posted a video of on his Instagram page. The stunt involved his custom Lamborghini Huracán, a stunning supercar with a V10 engine and compelling performance. The supercar also features a Cristiano Ronaldo-themed livery. However, IShowSpeed, wearing a Cristiano Ronaldo jersey, wasn’t driving his Lamborghini in the video. Instead, the video shows the supercar being driven towards him, and as it gets near, IShowSpeed performs the incredible feat of jumping over the Lamborghini Huracán supercar as it passes under him. After doing the stunt, he ecstatically celebrates his achievement to the camera, making a truly epic and crazy moment captured on video. Not only did he jump over his custom Lamborghini Huracán, but in a new video, IShowSpeed raised the stakes even higher.

Lamborghini Celebrates Its 20-Year V10 Engine Evolution

At a turning point in its history, Lamborghini celebrates its V10 legacy. The V10 isn’t a common engine, but it’s definitely iconic. It’s not only powered some of the fastest and most powerful performance cars, but its unique sound is also one of the most unmistakable and melodic in the automotive world. For over 20 years, Lamborghini has employed the use of V10 engines in its supercars, and as the V10-powered Huracán is sent off, Lamborghini is celebrating the unforgettable sound of its V10 engine, and coinciding with this year’s Record Store Day, its journey from analog to digital which parallels that of the music world. 2003 was the year when the Lamborghini Gallardo was first introduced, along with its incredible V10 engine. In the same year, the White Stripes recorded their iconic “Elephant” album with producer and engineer Liam Watson in London’s Toe Rag Studios. At the time, the studio used vintage recording gear and analog four-track tape machines, preserving an old-school quality to the music that the White Stripes wanted to capture in their album. However, since then, the studio has changed, adopting current digital equipment and methods, and so have Lamborghini’s V10 supercars, the modern Huracán Tecnica being a perfect example. Watson appreciates both, for the Gallardo’s visceral feeling and the Tecnica’s state-of-the-art engineering excellence, which coincides with the 2023 re-release of “Elephant.” In celebration of Record Store Day, Lamborghini reflects on the legacy of an iconic moment in music, and its own unforgettable sound. As Lamborghini’s V10, as we know it, sees the end of an era, it’s worth celebrating its legendary pedigree in Lamborghini history. View All Lamborghinis For Sale Image Source: Lamborghini

Lamborghini Unveils The New Final 1-of-10 Huracán STJ

The Huracán’s finale is here, and it’s amazing. The Lamborghini Huracán has spent over a decade as one of the world’s most iconic supercars. Its signature Lamborghini design is instantly recognizable, and its naturally aspirated V10 power and sound put it at the upper echelon of power and performance. With variants of the Huracán boasting track-ready prowess, open-top thrill, head-turning style, and even off-road ability, the supercar will certainly go down as a legendary creation from the historic Fighting Bull. The automotive world has known for quite some time that the Huracán would give way this year to a new hybrid supercar, as the Aventador did for the Revuelto last year, coinciding with Lamborghini’s 60th anniversary, but the official send-off for the Lamborghini Huracán is finally here: the new Lamborghini Huracán STJ. The name might sound similar to the Huracán STO: which stands for Super Trofeo Omologato, indicating that the STO was a roadgoing take on Lamborghini’s Huracán race car for the one-make Super Trofeo championship. The J, however, stands for “Jota,” referring to the Appendix J regulation of the FIA that also inspired the names of the Miura SVJ and Aventador SVJ. The STJ is much like the STO, but taken a step further. Lamborghini Squadra Corse has newly developed its aerodynamic package, and its dedication to absolute precision involves including the new “cofango,” two new carbon fiber “flicks” that increase the angle of the wing by 3 degrees, ensuring increased aerodynamic load and preserved balance. The STJ features the STO’s 630-hp V10 engine, and also like the STO, that power goes to the rear wheels. Grip is increased compared to the STO with the STJ’s inclusion of new adjustable racing shock absorbers, along with specially developed Bridgestone Potenza tires, and all the improvements combined mean that the STJ managed a time on the Nardò Technical Center’s handling track that was one second faster than that of the STO. Here’s the catch: Lamborghini is only making 10 of these commemorative supercar masterpieces. Two configurations are available: Grigio Teleseto with a Nero Noctis roof, with accents in Rosso Mars and Bianco Isi, paired with a Nero Cosmus-upholstered interior with Rosso Alala stitching, or Blu Eliadi with the same Nero Noctis roof, with accents in Rosso Mars and Bianco Isi, paired with the same Nero Cosmus-upholstered interior with Rosso Alala stitching. Of course, both versions feature a carbon fiber plaque, indicating the STJ as a 1-of-10, ultra-exclusive creation. While it’s sad to finally see the Huracán go, this is exactly the way an iconic supercar like it deserves to be sent off. View All Lamborghini Huracáns For Sale Image Source: Lamborghini

Lamborghini Brings The Huracán Sterrato & Urus S To The F...

Lamborghini’s versatile performance machines take on the Alps. Winter isn’t usually a great time to experience supercars, but when those supercars are versatile enough to take on and dominate various terrain situations, you can unlock a whole new world of stunning vistas, thrilling drives, and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. That’s what Lamborghini’s adventure in the French Alps did, and the versatile performance abilities of the Huracán Sterrato and the Urus S delivered the experience. Guests of the incredible Courchevel experience stayed at Le K2 Palace, which is an ultra-exclusive resort that is part of the Himalayan-inspired “Le K2 Collections,” offering sweeping Alpine views, Tibetan-inspired decor, and elevated French cuisine. However, the cars involved, the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato, and the Lamborghini Urus S, were the stars of the show. V8 and V10 engines roared as the vehicles covered over 120 miles of the Trois Vallées, one of the world’s largest linked ski areas. A watchmaking experience with Roger Dubuis added a touch of horological luxury to the itinerary, highlighting two new models of the Excalibur Spider MB Huracán, which is inspired by the long-standing partnership between Roger Dubuis and Lamborghini Squadra Corse, as well as giving guests an up-close-and-personal appreciation for the incredible degree of precision, craftsmanship, and care required to create a Roger Dubuis piece. While winter usually isn’t the time for supercars, the versatile, capable, and thrilling Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato and Urus S showed off a one-of-a-kind thrilling winter thrill in the Alps, with luxurious accommodations and experiences to match.

Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar: The Ul...

Two off-road supercars go head to head. Even in the performance realm, discussions of cars that are off-road capable mostly revolve around pickup trucks and SUVs. Compact performance cars with off-road capability and rallying legacy might come into play as well, but as SUVs become more popular, their performance variants are often the most seen performance off-roaders. However, Porsche and Lamborghini have changed the narrative somewhat, and introduced versions of their celebrated staple performance cars with off-road enhancements, showing a genre of performance car that has rarely been seen on the road before. These two cars are the Porsche 911 Dakar, and the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato. Both are based on iconic performance cars, and transformed with off-road enhancements for high performance on various terrains. However, is one better than the other? In this Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar comparison, the attributes of each will be broken down to find out if either comes out on top. Learn How To Sell Your Lamborghini Today Whichever way you lean, it's hard to deny that both the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato and the Porsche 911 Dakar are incredible, unique, and undeniably thrilling off-road supercars, and would make the perfect addition to any supercar or exotic car collection. With supercar style and performance and off-road capability alike, both of these masterpieces would likely carve out a new niche within even the most extensive of garages. Learn How To Sell Your Porsche Today If you're interested in owning a Porsche 911 Dakar for sale, or a Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato for sale, it won't be easy to find one. However, being the source for supercars since 1985, duPont REGISTRY is the place to look. A 911 Dakar for sale might be easier to find than a Huracán Sterrato for sale due to a higher production number, but both the Porsche Dakar for sale and the Lamborghini Sterrato for sale are in very high demand with quite low numbers set to be produced. View All Exotic Cars For Sale Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar Specs Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato Specs Engine: 5.2-liter V10 MSRP: $279,000 Horsepower: 602 hp Torque: 413 lb/ft 0-60: 3.4 s ¼ mile: 10.9 s Weight: 3,241 lbs Transmission: 7-speed dual-clutch automatic Production Number: 1,499 Porsche 911 Dakar Specs Engine: 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged flat 6 MSRP: $222,000 Horsepower: 473 hp Torque: 420 lb/ft 0-60: 3.2 s ¼ mile: 11.6 s Weight: 3,552 lbs Transmission: 8-speed dual-clutch automatic Production Number: 2,500 When it comes to off-road performance, the numbers we might use to describe asphalt-bound performance cars should be interpreted differently. What that means is that while it might not seem that way, based on the lower power figure and higher ¼-mile time, the Porsche 911 Dakar impresses slightly more than the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato, thanks to a better 0-60 time, as well as a higher torque figure. Specs Winner: Porsche 911 Dakar Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar Engine One of the most marvelous aspects of these two off-roading supercars is their engines. Mid-mounted in the Huracán and rear-mounted in the 911, these off-road masterpieces are like few other cars ever made. A twin-turbocharged flat-six powers the 911, while the Lamborghini sports a naturally-aspirated 5.2 liter V10. Higher power isn’t the only reason that the 602-horsepower V10 wins, as the rarity of V10s, the fact that the Huracán Sterrato will be one of the last V10-powered production cars, and the unmistakable sound the engine makes give it even more appeal. Engine Winner: Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar Interior As luxury performance cars, both the Porsche 911 Dakar and the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato have excellent interiors, which combine luxury craftsmanship, fine materials, and motorsport inspiration. With a more futuristic look and more unique details, the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato earns the win in this category. Interior Winner: Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar Performance Off-road performance isn’t easy to achieve. Lifted suspension, off-roading tires, and various driving modes make both competent both on the asphalt and on loose surfaces, and of course, thrilling to drive on both. However, higher torque gives the Porsche 911 Dakar the win in this category. Performance Winner: Porsche 911 Dakar Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato vs Porsche 911 Dakar Investment Both of these cars make for good investments when it comes to their rarity and historical value as time goes on. The Porsche 911 Dakar is in fact named after a Porsche 911 that was modified for rallying purposes, which went on to win the famed Paris-Dakar Rally. However, with a smaller production number, and a V10 engine that is quickly becoming a hallmark of history, the Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato stands out as an investor or collector’s masterpiece.

Watch Stradman Take Delivery Of His New Huracán Sterrato ...

Now with the Huracán Sterrato in his fleet, Stradman is quickly becoming the ultimate Lamborghini collector. Since its initial debut at Art Basel in Miami last year, the adventurous Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato continues to make waves in the automotive world as an off-road capable Italian supercar. Now in full production with anticipated owners taking delivery of their dream specs, the Huracán Sterrato is proving its worth on roads and trails all around the world. Automotive YouTuber Stradman recently uploaded a new video to his channel documenting his delivery at Lamborghini Paramus of Paramus, New Jersey. Only best described as a "dream come true", the delivery stands out as the first brand-new Lamborgini purchased by Stradman. Stradman originally ordered his Sterrato in May 2021 with a head-turning Verde Scandal finish that commemorates an array of Lamborghini's most historic examples. Prior to the delivery truck arriving, the team at Lamborghini Paramus prepped all the additional off-road accessories for a fast and quick pre-delivery inspection (PDI) before Stradman hops behind the wheel for a first drive. A quick look at the interior of Stradman's Sterrato showcases a matching Verde Scandal leather and alcantara interior, littered with tons of additional lightweight carbon fiber trim accents. The team invited Stradman to take part in the PDI process, which involved unwrapping the protective plastics, installing center caps, and securing roof rails. After a quick test drive to ensure a clean bill of health, Stradman returns to Lamborghini Paramus to complete the purchase process of his newest Italian raging bull. Before making its long journey back west to Utah, the Huracán Sterrato heads to the shop for full PPF installation to protect its perfect paint.

Roger Dubuis and Lamborghini Squadra Corse launch the blue Excalibur Spider Huracán Sterrato MB. Roger Dubuis, as part of its long-standing partnership with Lamborghini Squadra Corse, introduces the blue Excalibur Spider Huracán Sterrato MB. 'Sterrato', meaning an unpaved road in Italian, perfectly embodies the daring essence of Roger Dubuis' newest limited-edition creation, inspired by the off-road and adventurous Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato supercar. Following its vibrant orange predecessor, this latest iteration comes in a striking new blue colorway. The case is crafted from SMC Carbon and topped with a black DLC bezel, ensuring both comfort and lightweight performance. The Excalibur's design echoes the aesthetics of Lamborghini’s Huracán, with sharp lines and hexagonal shapes adorning the dial. The strap features a camouflage pattern, complete with a Quick Release System, inviting wearers to embark on all-terrain adventures. Powered by the iconic RD630 caliber, the watch showcases Roger Dubuis' horological expertise and Lamborghini's visionary engineering. The automatic RD630 caliber, with its tilted balance wheel, twin barrels, and a 60-hour power reserve, is a marvel of mechanical engineering. The design features a date display at 6 o’clock, enhancing functionality and style. This exclusive timepiece is limited to just 28 pieces, making it a highly collectible item amongst watch and Lamborghini enthusiasts. To add to the exclusivity, the first buyers will receive a tailor-made, hand-painted FIA racing helmet that mirrors the timepiece's design. Available for order online, the Excalibur Spider Huracán Sterrato MB Blue Edition is currently available for $70,000.
