The Laraki Epitome is a thing of pure power and beauty, but we’ve never been quite sure whether a production model would make it to the United States.
Thanks to French Montana, we just might have a shot at seeing one with our own eyes.
The Laraki Epitome was first introduced as a concept in August of 2013, when we found out that a 7-liter twin-turbocharged V8 would pump 1,750 hp out to power this boutique supercar. Specially crafted tires were required to handle that much output, and Lexani was put to the task of creating them.
The LZ-102 wheels found on the Laraki Epitome are completely custom to the car, with a one-of-a-kind, deep pitch, concave set found on each example. When first introduced at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, the Epitome was priced at approximately $2 million each, with only nine examples slated for creation.

And, as we found out April 21 and 22 from his Instagram and Facebook accounts, French Montana is the proud new owner of one of these powerful beasts. The caption of one of his posts leads us to believe that the final price paid rang in around $2.5 million – a good bit more than the initial projected price.

Yet Montana, who is rumored to be dating Khloe Kardashian, does not seem to mind the price jump at all.
