My Dream Supercar – a McLaren

This is a 2015 McLaren 650S Spider

In my dream though, I’m happy with any McLaren model.

So many new blog headers.

This model has ready… $100,000 IN OPTIONS.

Mine would have the least features, in fact, I’d pay more to have things deleted.

And not covered in carbon fiber.

I like them best because they’re subtle.

Ferrari is so flash, Lambo too, this is more understated.

Engine Specs

A twin turbo V8 outputting 641 hp and 500 lb.ft.
7-speed automatic
Top speed – 333 km/h
0 – 100 km/h in 3.0 seconds

Phft.

Below is one of my best pics in a while.

 

 

 

It’s Going to be an Excellent Car Week

2015 Jaguar XKR Coupe

A 5.0 L V8 engine, outputting 510 hp and 461 lbs.ft

Starting at: $109,125

This one: $118,000 

This is, by far, the best car I’ve tested.Most power, and most expensive.

It’s not an interior, it’s a cockpit.

Supercharged over turbo charged, because it’s instant.

Opening the front door and seeing that car ahhh.  Satisfying. Started drinking my morning coffee in the front, so I could sit with it.

Next week’s column is about this supercar.

If you hear superfluous revving, look for me.

 

 

Starting up a Pagani Huayra

One of the world’s best cars.

Built in Italy, less than 100 will be produced.

$1.8 million

It’s a twin-turbo 6.0L Mercedes AMG V-12 engine,
outputting 730 hp and 740 lb.ft
top speed is 370 km/h
0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds

Busy interior eh.

I got the key mwah.

Huayra is pronounced: wai-rah. Say it with a Hawaiian accent. It’s Quechua, the official language of the Inca Empire, and translates to “God of the winds”.

This is the all carbon-fiber model.

Of course I turned this moment into a blog header.

It was Pfaff who brought the car to town, its first time on North American soil.  Thanks for having me guys.

 

 

$2.5 Million in One Frame

It’s a McLaren– a British car worth $500,000-ish.

This isn’t like, I own an exotic Porsche, this is a different level of rich.

When I posted this online, I was asked if I was testing it. First, like where your heads are at. But really, I’ve no business reviewing one of these.

Not only have I not driven enough cars of this calibre, but this is 616 hp with 443 lb-ft of torque.

I’d be nervous behind the wheel… one small mistake is at least 5 figure$, and this is like, the most powerful engine you can own, this’ll get away from you real fast.

And to really maximize a car like this, the driver would have to be quite skilled, they’re few and far between.

This is what I’m thinking about, while some super-car owner is telling me all about how he finds the car to drive.

Spotted at the Toronto McLaren dealership.
