It’s a road-legal, GMA T.50 and T.50s-based, F1 GTR homage

1,258hp and 1,000kg of downforce—yeah, this thing is wild
Attempting to follow in the footsteps of the F1 and the P1 is a like taking the mantle from Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. Luckily (and on paper at least), things look very promising for McLaren's third premier series hypercar, the

Origami meets motorsport
We've seen a McLaren F1 car built entirely from Lego, and now we've been presented with this: a full-scale McLaren F1 car constructed solely from sheets of paper. Yup, it's origami meets motorsport.The creation is the work

You have to laud the creativity
Designed for the tired huntsman, the Range Rover Rapport Excelsior has an electrohydraulically operated rear bench that elevates passengers through the open roof. You simply spot something alive, press a button, shoot its face off, then retreat into the Rangie without leaving

Question is, will it remain a garage queen?
Remember the lightly infuriating McLaren F1 with 391km (243 miles) on the clock that was scheduled to cross the block at Gooding & Company's Pebble Beach sale?Well, we're here to report that someone ended up paying $20.465 million (P1.

We dig it
The McLaren F1 comes from a simpler time-when electrification was still in the back of most people's minds, touchscreens were reserved for science fiction films, and supercar manufacturers weren't as trigger happy with special releases.If that last bit

The designer names eight things he hates about the car
Some things in life are universally accepted as the truth. Pineapple is an unacceptable pizza topping, for example. Christian Bale played the best on-screen Batman. The McLaren F1 is perfect. Of these things, there can be no argument.We don't

Even by classic supercar standards, that's very high
Most '90s supercars are worth more now than they were when they were new. Substantially more, in some cases. But none has skyrocketed in value quite like the McLaren F1.Back in 1992, a brand-new McLaren F1 cost £540,000. According

Not all of them are found in expensive exotics
A starter button on the dashboard? Snore. Somehow, it's more interesting-more Italian-to locate it on the steering wheel. Audi does that in the R8 V10. Lots of Ferraris do the same. But the Alfa Romeo Giulia brings a slice

If you had to sum up a Huracan in a sentence, you could do worse than 'an Audi R8 made pointier and more impractical in every single way.' The Lambo takes the same ingredients and mixes in worse visibility, a less user-

Ever heard of the Bertone Freeclimber?
Time for an inconvenient truth. No, not that one, with impossibly large global consequences-just a smaller, regularly inconvenient one: BMWs aren't good-looking anymore. Sure, there's a few exceptions in the muscular M2, the reserved 5-Series, and brutish
