Oh, hey.


Today I will be discussing another Hybrid Hyper car. The Porsche 918 w/ The Weissach performance package.

This is Porsche's successor to the legendary CGT (Carrera GT). It's also Porsche's entry into the hybrid front. And much like McLaren and Ferrari, they chose to do it with a hyper car, and by having it be a successor to one of their track legends. At first you can tell it's a Porsche. It has sleek lines, and is generally timid. Not necessarily aggressive. But it isn't a car to be taken lightly.

It is the fastest production car to ever go around the Nurburgring (unless McLaren releases the P1's official time).

887 horsepower (both diesel and electric motors working parallel)
214 mph top speed
940lb per ft of Torque
67 MPG
7-Speed dual clutch (PDK)
3602 lbs
0-60mph in a supposed 2.5 seconds
1/4 Mile in 9.9 seconds

The numbers are there, and they are very impressive. This is a car I have grown VERY fond of. You grow an appreciation. Porsche is a company that I always sort of ignored. But with the 918 and the new 991 GT3, they are catching my attention, in a big way.

PRICE: $800,000-$1.09M. It is the cheapest hyper car on the market.

Next week I will be discussing the Pagani Huayra

Discuss.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
The only hyper I'd ever buy.

That is the finest looking Porsche ever made. They really outdid themselves with the 918.

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.

It looks even better with Richard Hammond in it.

1 of the 3 I considered.

The first I considered, actually. It's the cheapest of the lot. Under $1M

I'm inclined to agree. This and the 991 are quite stunning

I'd feel bad for somebody who brought one of those cars up here. In a few days of traveling on the grid roads it'd be a fucking mess.

Panamera isn't the most attractive car. It's nice in the front, and a bit awkward after that

You can get the stone guard, which protects from a lot of scratches and scuffs from gravel roads.

But, they'll still get under. Nothing a full detail can't fix

I just prefer the looks of it. It's a little more striking than the 918.

Porsche's in general aren't necessarily striking, they are very timid
