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.

Porsche Sets U.S. Q1 Sales Record With 18,884 Vehicles De...

With one of the most passionate and devoted communities of owners and enthusiasts, Porsche seems to be always on the rise, thanks to its diverse lineup of sports cars and SUVs. Whether it's the weekend track warrior with a 911 GT3 RS or the conscious commuter behind the wheel of the new electric Macan, Porsche people are pleased with their ownership experience. Porsche is off to a red-hot start in 2025, reporting a record-breaking first quarter with 18,884 new vehicle deliveries in the United States. That's a huge 40.6% jump from Q1 2024 and an 8.1% gain over the previous Q1 record in 2023. The sales surge highlights a strong demand across Porsche's entire lineup, fueled partly by the fix of supply chain issues that impacted last year's production. Porsche's U.S. CEO, Timo Resch, credits the brand's growth to customer excitement for new models and the continued support from Porsche dealers nationwide. The Porsche Macan continues to lead the charge, moving 7,486 units this quarter alone. Even more impressive is that 44.6% of those were the new all-electric Macan, showing that Porsche EV sales are gaining serious traction. Electric vehicles now make up 23% of Porsche's total Q1 U.S. sales, thanks to interest in the Macan Electric and 1,019 Taycan deliveries. Meanwhile, traditional two-door favorites like the 911 and 718 also posted strong gains, selling 2,086 and 1,476 units. The Cayenne and Panamera models added solid volume, with 5,331 and 1,486 vehicles sold. Certified Pre-Owned Porsche sales also saw a healthy increase, with 11,587 vehicles sold in Q1 2025, up 11.7% year-over-year. With new models and longtime nameplates like the 911 still turning heads, Porsche seems well-positioned to maintain its sales momentum through the year.

Porsche Celebrates 75 Years Of Manufacturing At Zuffenhausen

Porsche reaches another significant historic milestone. In 2023, Porsche celebrated a milestone anniversary, marking 75 years as a luxury performance car manufacturer and 60 years of its most legendary model, the 911. However, 2025 marks another milestone for Porsche, as its historic production home in Zuffenhausen, Germany sees its 75th anniversary, as well. It was in 1950 when Porsche made its first 356 in Zuffenhausen on April 6. Since then, Zuffenhausen has been an important capital for Porsche’s innovation and success, housing its greatest luxuriously individualized creations and creating the mobility and performance of tomorrow with electric models. Today, the 911 is still made in Zuffenhausen, where it has been since its introduction in 1964. The 718 model line and the Taycan are manufactured there, as well, and the facility’s history stretches back nearly 90 years. In 1938, Porsche made its home in Zuffenhausen as a construction office, but World War II and its aftermath would make for a drastic change in the story of the facility. In 1948, when the first 356 was made, it was hand-built in Austria. 52 examples were made like that until 1950. From the beginning of its production legacy in the 1950s, Porsche implemented innovative and efficient processes at Zuffenhausen, with principles that still apply to its production methods today. From creating the 356 and the 911, the Zuffenhausen facility would evolve to accommodate the production of Porsche’s transaxle models, the 718, the Taycan, and the boxer engines, V8 engines, and electric motors that power Porsche’s ever-expanding range of state-of-the-art luxury performance vehicles. Alongside its facilities in Weissach and Leipzig, Porsche’s Zuffenhausen facility, celebrating its 75th anniversary, is a historic site that continues to be a beacon of innovation and automotive excellence.

The Best Of Both Worlds: 1995 Porsche 993 911 GT2 Tribute...

Imagine if Porsche made a car with the experience and fizz of a GT2 with the usability and comfort of a Turbo. Ask any passionate Porsche collector or enthusiast about their favorite model, and you'll likely hear two names come up most often: the 911 GT2 and 911 Turbo. While these icons sit at opposite ends of the performance spectrum, they both embody Porsche's relentless pursuit of precision and speed. Bringing together the best of both worlds and creating something truly incredible, this Porsche 911 GT2 Tribute looks the part while maintaining some characteristics from its past life. Built with the intention on creating the "GT2 Touring" that Porsche never engineered, this example focuses on delivering the comfort and usability of a 911 Turbo with the styling and authenticity of the most desirable GT car. View Price And Listing Originally imported into Japan from the factory through the team at Mizwa Motors, the 1995 Porsche 911 Turbo began its life as a factory-built example before being meticulously transformed into a 993 GT2 Tribute using OEM parts directly from the manufacturer. Part of a private collection, the first owner began upgrading the 911 Turbo with a factory Porsche GT2 widebody kit. The build quickly continued after the current owner took delivery, sourcing meticulous upgrades from Porsche like revised gearing, a GT2 intercooler, OEM suspension, and extremely rare period-correct Speedline wheels. Broad Arrow/Vintage Shogun Group and Cars USA helped bring the car stateside for the current owner, who continues to preserve its story by sharing it with the car community around the country at events. Over the years, the 993 GT2 Tribute has made waves in the Porsche scene, earning awards like Best in Show at Radwood 2024 and a Class Award at The Amelia Island Concours alongside icons like a black Ferrari F50 and triple white Lamborghini Countach. It has also been featured at Porsche Rennsport Reunion 7 and Werks Reunion, cementing itself as a well-known build among the Porsche world and its enthusiasts. As if it couldn't be any more of a unique build already, a factory Paint-to-Sample Iris Blue Metallic finish makes this GT2 Tribute the ultimate Porsche build. The factory GT2 widebody gives it the aggressive stance of a track star, and every detail has been carefully considered—from the GT2 uprights and adjustable control arms to the imported Rest of World (ROW) GT OEM lighting, including headlights, taillights, fog lights, and turn signals. To keep the exterior pristine for years, the car underwent a full paint correction, followed by paint protection film (PPF) and ceramic coating. Inside, the cabin keeps the lightweight GT2 spirit alive with some thoughtful and tasteful upgrades. A GT2 steering wheel and shifter keep things driver-focused, while Porsche sport hardback seats with matching Iris Blue backs add a bespoke touch. A Becker CR210 stereo with Bluetooth brings period-correct looks with modern usability, and a Focal speaker and amplifier improves the audio quality. The car also comes with some rare accessories, including a Porsche Classic owner's bag, a Japan-only Purple "VIP" light, and a GT2 lightweight wheel jack. The numbers-matching status is verified by a Porsche Classic Technical Certificate, giving the build an extra layer of authenticity. Hidden underneath the rear aero, the car is driven by the 911 Turbo's original factory engine with some extra Porsche factory upgrades. The engine has been fully refreshed with OEM GT2 turbos and hardware, an OEM GT2 intercooler, and a GT2 exhaust. A short-throw shifter with a golden rod makes for the engaging drive of a classic 911, while the ECU has been remapped for variable boost using GT OEM mapping. On the low end, it makes an impressive 420 horsepower, while the peak power of this setup is around 550 horsepower. Despite all these GT2-inspired upgrades, it still retains its AWD setup and Turbo VIN, making it a unique, usable, and thrilling tribute to one of Porsche's most legendary models.

Porsche Wins One-Two Victory At 2025 12 Hours Of Sebring

Porsche claims incredible victory at an iconic endurance racing challenge. Each year, the 12 Hours of Sebring brings the world’s premier endurance racing teams, cars, and drivers together to compete in one of the world’s most daunting endurance racing challenges. This year, an incredible group of teams, brands, and cars took to the grid at Sebring this past weekend, but the victor was a specifically iconic and historic one, with Porsche Penske Motorsport scoring an amazing one-two finish at the race. The Number 7 Porsche 963 racing hypercar driven by Felipe Nasr, Nick Tandy, and Laurens Vanthoor won the 12 Hours of Sebring after winning the 24 Hours of Daytona in January, while right behind them was the Number 6 car, driven by Matt Campbell, Mathieu Jaminet, and Kévin Estre. The victory came after an epic showdown in the final 31 minutes of the race, and it marked Porsche’s 19th overall victory at the 12 Hours of Sebring, its first since 2008. After earning the “Mr. 24 Hours title by winning the 24-hour races at Spa, Nürburgring, Le Mans, and Daytona, Nick Tandy also becomes one of the few winners of the endurance racing “Triple Crown,” having won the 12 Hours of Sebring, and the 24-hour races at Le Mans and Daytona, making him one of the world’s most decorated endurance racing drivers. Customer teams with the Porsche 963 also finished sixth and eighth at the race, while the “Rexy” Porsche 911 GT3 R driven by Laurin Heinrich, Klaus Bachler, and Alessio Picariello finished on top of the GTD Pro class, marking the first victory in one of the major endurance races of the IMSA series for the AO Racing team. As the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship continues, Porsche’s victories at Daytona and Sebring, especially with Porsche Penske Motorsport finishing with both cars in the podium at both races, puts wind in the team’s sails as it prepares for the 100-minute sprint in Long Beach in April.
