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.

The Best Manual Transmission Cars For Sale

There’s no replacement for a manual transmission, and we doubt one will ever come about. There’s a reason it’s the hill that automotive purists everywhere are willing to die on, there just isn’t anything like the feeling of driving stick shift cars. Even as transmission technology evolves, and many automatic counterparts shift faster and even offer options and driving modes to allow us to do much of what was only able to be done on a manual, the best manual transmission cars continue to shine among enthusiasts even when they might not perform as well, for the simple reason that they are so authentic to being drivers’ cars. As time goes on and the industry continues to move away from manual transmissions, manual transmission cars for sale are going to be hard to find new. If you’re looking for the best manuals, your best bet will definitely be used manual transmission cars. If that sounds like something you’re interested in, and you don’t quite know where to start, we’ve come in clutch (pun intended) and put together our favorites, so you can start your search with what we think are the best manual transmission cars.

For many drivers, feeling in control, more engaged, and simply doing things the old-fashioned way make driving stick shift worth it. However, other advantages include the fact that you can choose when you shift up or down, for example coming in and out of corners, and in some cases, like that of the current-generation Porsche 911 GT3, the fact that the manual transmission version boasts a slightly higher top speed. What are the disadvantages of driving manual transmission cars? Many manual transmission drivers will tell you that the biggest disadvantage to manual transmissions comes when you're stuck in traffic, constantly having to go in and out of gear as you inch forward through a jam. However, who likes traffic anyway? Other disadvantages are the obvious learning curve for new stick shift drivers, reduced access to some of the latest automotive safety systems, and in plenty of cases, slower acceleration. Drivers simply can't shift themselves as fast as the latest automatic transmissions from many performance car manufacturers, but many drivers still prefer the old-school feeling. Can you still buy a manual transmission car? Of course! Manual transmission cars are certainly an endangered species and have been for some time, but there are still plenty of manual transmission cars for sale available on the market, both new and used. If you're looking for a brand-new sports car, look to models like the Porsche 911 or 718, many of whose variants still offer a manual transmission. A peek at the secondhand market, especially on duPont REGISTRY, the source for supercars since 1985, will show you a whole world of the manual transmission supercars of the past, for example, the Audi R8, Ferrari F430, Lamborghini Gallardo, and more are still available, although not the easiest to find.

Elferspot Spotlight: RUF SCR, RWB 964 and 991 GT3 RS

Three cars this week, and on paper they are all of different tastes. The first is a near-new RUF SCR that Alois Ruf delivered to its original owner in person. The second is a 964 that Akira Nakai reworked at RWB headquarters in 2025, with far more going on underneath than the bodywork lets on. The third is a 4,981-mile 991 GT3 RS carrying most of the options people actually shop for. This week's trio: one rear-engined formula, read three ways by RUF, RWB and Porsche itself. 2025 RUF SCR in Golden Classic GALLERY-EMBED Golden Classic is a quiet color for a car this technically serious, and we'd argue that's the smartest thing about it. This SCR was commissioned by its original owner, unveiled at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance and delivered there by Alois Ruf in person. It has covered 1,949 miles since. The Paint to Sample exterior sits over Charcoal leather with black and creme Pepita inserts and Golden stitching, and folding carbon-fiber RUF Lollipop seats share the cabin with a visible-carbon dashboard and doors. Silver lightweight wheels and silver RUF calipers over carbon-ceramic brakes keep the outside from tipping into showpiece territory. Don't let the familiar silhouette fool you. Underneath is RUF's own carbon-fiber monocoque with front and rear spaceframes and an integrated high-strength steel roll cage. The naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six makes 510 HP at 8,270 rpm and sends it to the rear wheels through a six-speed manual and a limited-slip differential. With 1,250 kilograms to move, RUF quotes 3.4 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h and a 320 km/h top speed, just under 199 mph. The options list covers the sensible stuff too: a front-axle hydraulic lift, a fire extinguisher and magnetic number plates. Broad Arrow is asking $2,295,000. That's a serious number, and it's fair to ask what it gets you over ordering your own. Mostly, it buys time. If you aren't willing to wait years for a bespoke RUF build, here's a fully personal one that's barely through its break-in period. Just know what you're signing up for. Anyone hoping for a RUF that shouts across a parking lot should look elsewhere, because restraint is this car's whole personality. View Listing 1990 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 by RWB GALLERY-EMBED Ferrari Verde Abetone over Porsche Ascot Brown leather is an unusual place to start an RWB 964, and it's the first thing that caught our eye. The donor car is a Japanese-market, non-sunroof Carrera 2, and Akira Nakai converted it at RWB headquarters in 2025. JCARS in Canada is offering it for $285,000, with 75,000 miles showing on the odometer. RWB cars usually get talked about almost entirely in terms of Nakai's bodywork. This one deserves a different conversation, because the hardware reads like a 964 RS wish list. A 3.8-liter flat-six with sport camshafts, estimated at around 325 HP, runs through a shortened five-speed manual, a fresh Wavetrac limited-slip differential and a 964 Carrera RS lightweight clutch and flywheel. The engine mounts, short shifter, anti-roll bars and lightweight interior are RS-derived as well. Öhlins Road & Track suspension, 935-style spring plates and 993 Turbo "Big Red" brakes take care of the chassis, and the exhaust is a Cargraphic system with headers, heat exchangers, catalytic converters and valves feeding an Akrapovič GT3 RS titanium center muffler. Inside are genuine Recaro Pole Position seats, custom gauges and a Porsche Classic head unit. Porsche also removed and serviced the engine less than 2,000 kilometers ago, covering seals, the distributor belt, intake components, fluids and the A/C. A couple of honest notes before you get carried away. That 325 HP figure is an estimate, so ask JCARS what's behind it if the number matters to you. And RWB bodywork paired with this color combination is going to split a room. If you've written these cars off as showpieces, though, this is the one that might change your mind. View Listing 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS GALLERY-EMBED Not every Spotlight car needs a rare color to earn its place. This GT3 RS wears White over Black leather and Alcantara with GT Silver stitching, shows 4,981 miles and, according to the seller, has been dealer-serviced its entire life. Front paint-protection film is already on. Gas Motorcars in Marietta, Georgia, is asking $254,979. The option sheet is where it earns its keep. Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes, front-axle lift, fixed-back carbon buckets, Sport Chrono, black LED headlights with PDLS and the extended-range 23.9-gallon tank are all here, which covers most of what buyers go looking for on a 991.1 RS. Racing Yellow seat belts and satin-black 20/21-inch GT3 RS wheels supply what little contrast there is. Behind you, the naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six makes 500 HP at 8,250 rpm and keeps pulling to 8,800. This was also the car that brought rear-axle steering to the RS line, along with a magnesium roof and carbon fiber for the front lid and front fenders. Now the catch, and for some of you it's a dealbreaker. Porsche only offered this car with the seven-speed PDK, so if a third pedal is non-negotiable, keep scrolling. Everyone else gets a clean, properly optioned RS from just before turbo-era performance and more complicated aero changed what the later cars felt like. White over Black won't turn heads at a show. It doesn't need to. View Listing

Porsche Unicorn: One-Off RUF RCT EVO Speedster Listed for Sale at Graham Rahal Performance

Porsche designed the 964 Speedster around a simple philosophy of open-air driving, but RUF Automobile had something considerably more ambitious in mind. The Bavarian outfit, which famously stunned the automotive world with its 211-mph CTR Yellowbird in 1987, has spent decades pushing the boundaries of air-cooled Porsche performance. More importantly, RUF Automobile is an independent German automobile manufacturer, not merely another Porsche tuning company. Its engineering expertise is on full display in this one-off 1994 Porsche 911 Speedster, now listed through Graham Rahal Performance on duPont REGISTRY with just under 3,500 miles. Now for some context. The Speedster body style traces its roots to the original Porsche 356, with its signature minimalist, open-air driving philosophy carried forward across four generations of the 911. The 964 is particularly special within that lineage, with roughly 945 examples built, including just 15 factory widebody cars. Introduced in 1993, it features the Speedster’s signature low-slung windshield, distinctive double-hump rear tonneau, and minimalist two-seat cabin. The subsequent 993 generation famously never received a series-production Speedster, making the 964 the final regular-production air-cooled interpretation of the formula. Coming to this particular car, it was originally delivered to Japan and first visited RUF's Pfaffenhausen headquarters in 2015 for an extensive restoration. RUF restored the bodywork to bare metal and replaced its original Guards Red finish with Ferrari Rosso Mugello. The transformation also included an engine rebuild, a RUF six-speed manual replacing the original Tiptronic automatic, and a redesigned interior featuring black bucket seats, leather and Alcantara, red carpeting, and RUF instrumentation. <- Gallery -> But apparently, one transformation wasn't enough, because the car returned to Pfaffenhausen again in 2024 for something considerably more ambitious. This time, RUF converted it into an RCT EVO, drawing on the RUF Carrera Turbo program introduced during the early 1990s. Its single-turbocharged 3.6-liter flat-six now produces 425 horsepower, sending power to the rear wheels through that six-speed manual. Interestingly, the factory 964 Speedster never featured a fixed ducktail spoiler, something this RUF conversion proudly wears. Its carbon-fiber engine cover introduces a more aggressive rear profile, complemented by lightweight carbon fiber bumpers, contrasting 19-inch five-spoke silver center-lock wheels, and carbon-ceramic brakes. Revised suspension uprights and new coilovers complete the mechanical upgrades, helping accommodate the substantial increase in performance. According to RUF North America, this is the only RCT EVO Speedster ever created, and although this example retains its Porsche chassis identity instead of a RUF W09 designation, its accompanying RUF Zertifikat documents the manufacturer's involvement, adding important provenance to an already unusual creation.

Driving Legends: The Best Classic Cars Over $1 Million For Sale Today

As the automotive industry increasingly embraces an electric vehicle (EV)-forward approach, the appeal of classic cars is soaring among passionate collectors and enthusiasts. Classic cars embody an era where rules and regulations took a back seat, allowing for jaw-dropping designs and high-performance powertrains to speak volumes about automotive craftsmanship and innovation. This shift towards the future of mobility reflects a sustainable future while also enhancing the popularity and value of vintage examples, some of which now sell well into the seven-figure mark. Whether we're talking about a factory-raced Ferrari 250 GTO or a Ford Mustang Fastback pulled from a barn, there's no denying that age and preservation are the driving forces behind the astronomical values these cars now sell for. As part of this special feature, we at duPont REGISTRY are proud to showcase the Best Classic Cars Over $1 Million from our extensive network of dealers.

As the world continues to welcome more electrified vehicles every day, it's never a bad time to invest not only in a high-dollar classic car but a piece of automotive history that will never be replicated. What cars are considered classics? Classic cars are vehicles renowned for their timeless design, historical significance, and cultural impact. They embody an era of automotive craftsmanship and innovation, captivating enthusiasts and collectors alike with their enduring appeal. What's the most expensive classic car?

Elferspot Spotlight: A Weissach GT3 RS, a Rubystone 964 RS and the “Negroni”

This week's first pick from Elferspot is about as extreme as a current 911 gets: a 992 GT3 RS with the Weissach Package and close to $48,000 in factory options. The second is a Rubystone Red 964 Carrera RS, a Japanese-market car with 15,783 kilometers that heads to auction without reserve in January. And the third is the “Negroni,” a 1979 911 SC that Build2Sample turned into an S/T-inspired widebody, then backed up with a 61-page independent appraisal. The GT3 RS shows where Porsche's aero and chassis engineering has landed today, with nothing held back. The other two are lighter and more analogue, but they get there by very different routes: one was built that way by Porsche in 1992, the other was rebuilt that way by Build2Sample from the engine out. As always, we've kept the history to what helps explain each car. This week's trio: two RS cars 31 years apart and a restomod that brought its own paperwork. 2023 Porsche 911 GT3 RS With Weissach Package GALLERY-EMBED White is about the least unusual color you can order on a 992 GT3 RS, and on this car it works in its favor. Collective Auto Group is offering the 2023 car with 14,123 miles and roughly $48,000 in factory options. With nothing loud in the paint, your eye goes straight to the exposed carbon and all that aero hardware. Inside, there's Black Leather and Race-Tex with deviated red stitching, and you sit in carbon bucket seats. The $33,520 Weissach Package makes up most of the option spend. Past that, the spec stays on task: the extended-range fuel tank, black PDLS headlights, illuminated carbon-fiber door sills, a leather-covered steering column, black door pulls and a Race-Tex center console. You won't find comfort extras here. Somebody ordered this car around the RS hardware, which is exactly how we'd do it. The naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat-six makes 525 PS and sends it to the rear wheels through PDK. Active aerodynamics, a centrally mounted radiator and DRS combine for up to 860 kilograms of downforce at 285 km/h, about 177 mph, and you can adjust damping, differential and traction settings right from the steering wheel. Collectors hunting delivery-mile cars should know going in that 14,123 miles puts this one outside that club. If you actually plan to drive your RS, that's the appeal: a properly specified car you won't feel guilty adding miles to. View Listing 1992 Porsche 911 Carrera RS in Rubystone Red GALLERY-EMBED Rubystone Red is enough on its own to make a 964 Carrera RS stand out. This Japanese-market car adds just 15,783 kilometers, which is under 10,000 miles, and a documented history that runs back to its first owner. It left the factory on April 2, 1992, in Rubystone with the Violet, Rubystone and Fraise seat centers that give the cabin its look. RM Sotheby's will offer it without reserve from The Boeckmann Collection on January 28, 2027, with an estimate of $450,000 to $500,000. The Japanese service booklet logs routine maintenance from 1992 through 1996, with the last early entry at 9,990 kilometers. The car stayed in Japan until it came to the U.S. in December 2019, then joined The Boeckmann Collection in November 2022, and both the booklet and the Japanese-language owner's manual are still with it. According to RM Sotheby's, 235 of the 1,987 Carrera RS cars built for the 1992 model year left the factory in Rubystone Red. If you're bidding, it's worth asking what paperwork covers the years after 1996, when the last 5,800 or so kilometers were added. The 964 RS brought the Rennsport badge back to a road-going 911 after a long absence. Porsche started with the rear-drive Carrera 2 and took out weight wherever it could, with thinner glass, an aluminum front lid and a stripped interior, to get down to roughly 1,220 kilograms. The 3.6-liter flat-six was tuned to 260 PS and paired with a five-speed manual and a limited-slip differential, and the suspension was stiffened to suit. Low-mileage RS cars already sit in serious collector territory, but Rubystone paint and early Japanese history push this one further. With no reserve, wherever the hammer falls should be a useful read on the market. View Listing 1979 Porsche 911 SC “Negroni” by Build2Sample GALLERY-EMBED You won't mistake the “Negroni” for any other restomod. Polyantha Red paint, an S/T-inspired wide body and a brown leather cabin see to that. Build2Sample built the 1979 911 SC around a DP-Motorsport CWB conversion, widening the front and rear while keeping the look deliberately period, and trimmed the inside in bespoke two-tone leather with red details and a Porsche California wooden steering wheel and gear knob. It's offered privately in Germany with 15,000 kilometers showing, at EUR 240,000. The work goes a lot deeper than the skin. Build2Sample took the original 3.0-liter flat-six apart and rebuilt it, including the cylinder heads, intake and exhaust passages and ignition, then added Weber carburetors and an Eisenmann sports exhaust for a documented 180 PS. If you shop restomods by horsepower, that figure won't wow you. The five-speed manual was refurbished and given a short-shift conversion, and the chassis got Bilstein dampers, rebuilt suspension components and an overhauled braking system. EUR 240,000 is a lot of money for an SC, and you're paying for the build rather than the car underneath it. That's why the paperwork matters so much. Automotive expert Rainer Wilming completed a 61-page appraisal in June 2024 and gave the car an overall condition grade of 1, with excellent marks for the body, paint, underbody and mechanicals. A restomod has no factory rarity to lean on, so it all comes down to execution, and this one arrives with an independent answer on that question. View Listing
