McLaren Artura Spider

Being around for three years, the hybrid McLaren supercar called the Artura is now made even better for the 2025 model year. It's not just the power increase to its V6 hybrid powertrain but the addition of the new Spider variant makes sense.

2025 McLaren Artura Spider

Starting at 221,500 Pounds plus additional costs, the first-ever Artura Spider delivers the open-air experience to the Artura you know while blessed with numerous improvements to get hooked with it for longer.

At first glance, it looks just like the Artura but with a retractable hardtop that can be opened or closed at the touch of a button. It's hard to differentiate it from the normal hardtop Artura, but expect the added weight compared to the normal Artura because the Spider adds 137lbs of weight, Spider's 3212 vs Artura's 3075.

Despite the weight penalty, the performance is almost intact. Thanks to its updated PHEV powertrain with its 3.0L V6 Twin Turbo engine mated to an axial flux motor and a refrigerant-cooled 7.4kWh Li-ion battery producing 700PS of power output, it does 0-62mph in three seconds and a top speed of 205mph (330km/h). Like the hardtop equivalent, the Spider is mated to an 8-speed SSG.

In terms of efficiency, the Spider, like its hardtop equivalent, has a fuel economy of 58.9mpg (4.8L/100km) based on EU WLTP standards and running on electric power alone, it's good for 21 miles (33km), good while you're in the suburbs or in streets of London.

For speedo boys channeling their inner Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri, the Artura Spider, like its hardtop equivalent, is McLaren at its best on the road and on the track because of its near-perfect weight distribution courtesy of its carbon bodywork, front double wishbone, multi-link rear, Proactive Damping Control, electro-hydraulic power-assisted steering, Carbon Ceramic Discs, forged aluminum brake calipers, and Pirelli Cyber Tyres that provide real-time data on temperature and pressure to the car and driver, crucial for safety on and off the track. It even has Variable Drift Control that can adjust its drifting angle as well.

With the upgraded hybrid power and the new Spider variant, the first-ever McLaren Artura is now made even better than when it was new three years ago. Be ready for it.

McLaren 750S

The McLaren 750S may be a minor change version of the old 720S but this will mark the last McLaren to run purely on an internal combustion engine before heading to its electrified future.

2024 McLaren 750S

2024 McLaren 750S Spider

Costing 250,000 pounds plus additional costs, the 750S, in coupe and Spider configurations,  is the improved version of the 720S that crosses the line in terms of performance and dynamics fitting for McLaren's swansong for the pure internal combustion engine era as it's heading towards electrification soon.

2024 McLaren 750S interior

As the styling is broadly similar to its 720S predecessor, the 750S saw most of the black stuff from the 720S exterior design colored while featuring a new rear design that differentiates it. As for the interior, the instrumental display as well as the powertrain and handling mode controls have been repositioned for easy access behind the wheel. It even comes with a McLaren Control Launcher and a new Central Information Screen.

The familiar 4.0L V8 biturbo engine inherited from the 720S has been boosted to the titular 750PS of power output and 800Nm of torque. When mated to a 7-speed gearbox, it sprints from 0 to 62mph in 2.8 seconds and has a top speed of 206mph, in coupe or Spider configurations. More than the 720S but less than the 765LT so it's a welcoming development for a rear-wheel-drive hypercar from the UK.

Apart from the performance, the 750S features a reworked suspension setup, revised signature valve stack, wider front track width, electro-hydraulic steering assistance system, available track brake upgrade, and the improved Proactive Chassis Control, giving it dynamics only Lando Norris can truly understand because it handles like every McLaren should and thanks to being rear-wheel-drive, you have to be brave enough to take advantage of its Variable Drift Control if you want to make it out alive.

The McLaren 750S may be a minor change version of the old 720S but for a swansong for the pure internal combustion engine era, this is the ultimate driver's car full-stop and if you're as good as either Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri, spark this. It's about as addictive as exotics can be.

Chevrolet Corvette C8 E-Ray

To the eyes of purists, the Chevrolet Corvette C8 is treason to its heritage because of its mid-engine layout and to add more salt to the wounds, the first-ever hybrid Corvette comes to life. A fitting upset to the Corvette's seven-decade history.

2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray

2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray Convertible

Starting at an epically expensive 102,900 US Dollars plus additional costs, the first-ever Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray, in coupe and convertible forms, is by no means the biggest treason to the Corvette's seven-decade heritage because this is the first time a Corvette's been hybridized and the first to have AWD a la Honda NSX.

While the styling is more of a toned version of the Z06 while the interior works and feels just like most of the C8 Corvette lineup, the E-Ray's hybrid powertrain is the most controversial feature worth noting. The 6.2L LT2 V8 engine is mated to an electric drive unit, producing a total power output of 655HP. Although awfully close to the Z06, it's more powerful than the now-defunct Honda NSX, in Type S form. Unlike the NSX, the E-Ray is one gear short, 8 vs. 9.

Thanks to its electric drive unit, drivers can engage Stealth Mode to run on electric power only for up to four miles at 45mph. Handy if you want to quietly leave your home for a little night out at the pub with your friends. That's the element of surprise, the Corvette way. 

Because this is the first Corvette in history to have AWD, it has a 0-60mph time of 2.5 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 10.5 seconds. Whilst the added punching power, the AWD system made the Corvette E-Ray capable of going places that no supercars can't and thanks to its all-season tires, there's no need to wait for summer to let it loose in the wilderness. 

You can really take it to the track even when the weather has a gloomy outlook, although you may need to wait for another summer vacation to unleash its full potential when you have the ZER Performance Package which comes with high-performance Michelin® Pilot Sport 4 S ZP summer-only tires as well as chassis tuning and other performance enhancements. Bummer but not as bummer as the fact that most Corvette clubs actually ban the E-Ray for racing on track days due to fire concerns.

Yes, the Corvette E-Ray is no doubt the most controversial Corvette ever made because of its hybrid powertrain and all-wheel-drive but despite being a treason to the Corvette heritage, this is the ideal substitute for the now-defunct Honda NSX. In fact, jealousy is an out-of-issue for the Corvette E-Ray because this car is making its appearance in the new Forza Motorsport game and it's going to be as awesome as most supercars can get.

Love it or hate it, the Corvette E-Ray is ready to strike first and ask questions never. Be prepared to want one.

Maserati MC20 Cielo

The MC20 marked the new beginning for Maserati and as the world is struggling with the new normal, where crossovers are superheroes, this is the antithesis every car enthusiast needs. With its strikingly great styling, driver-focused interior, and performance that is quintessentially Italian, the MC20 became every speedo boy's newest favorite Italian supercar for the time being.

2023 Maserati MC20 Cielo

Those who want an open-top version should consider the MC20 Cielo, the roadster version that offers the same thrills as its hardtop equivalent but with a foldable glass roof at the top. Yours for less than 220K Euros.

Unlike most drop-tops, the MC20 Cielo features a two-piece folding glass roof that takes 12 seconds to open or close and it can turn opaque at the touch of a button. Sounds like a party piece but the roof-folding mechanism adds 65kg of weight.

Despite the added weight, the Cielo behaves just like its hardtop equivalent as expected. Armed with the 630PS 3.0L 6-cylinder twin-turbo Nettuno engine mated to an 8-speed DCT, the MC20 Cielo can sprint from 0-100kph in 2.9 seconds and can go all the way to 325kph. It's still great to drive even with the roof down and because it features a double-wishbone suspension system with active shock absorbers as well as the composite material monocoque soaked in carbon fiber, the Cielo behaves like a racecar on the track, just like what the hardtop equivalent should.

Glass roof or not, the MC20 Cielo is all about taking leaps and bounds from its hardtop equivalent despite the added weight penalty. Like the hardtop equivalent, the MC20 Cielo is quintessentially Italian and it too will become every speedo boy's newest favorite Italian supercar for the time being.

Chevrolet Corvette C8 Z06

The eighth-generation Corvette may be a treason to the Corvette history, as purists feared, because of its mid-engine layout, it's by far the best sports car ever to come out from America and those behind it sure know how to make a Corvette great again, whatever the reason. Those who want a greater Corvette should consider the Z06 because hey, how about those Republicans?

2023 Chevrolet Corvette Z06

Starting at a costly $105,300 plus additional costs, the all-new C8 Corvette Z06, in coupe and convertible flavors, is the best of both worlds for speedo boys behind the wheel. By employing some of the know-how from the C8.R racing machine, the Z06 transformed the C8 Corvette into a full-blown supercar that can chomp on asphalt with some southern hospitality as would say.

While the styling and interior are broadly similar to the normal C8 Corvette, the new Z06 features unique styling features such as quad center exhausts on the rear, wider fenders, quarter panels, and fascias, standard ground effects and spoiler, replaceable spoiler wicker bills, rear brake cooling ducts, removable front fascia panel, and front underwing stall Gurneys for improved aerodynamics compared to the normal C8.

Considering a shock to the world's best supercars, the C8 Z06 's V8 engine is back to being a naturally aspirated one. It's a 5.5L V8 naturally aspirated engine that produces 670HP of power and while mated to a standard 8-speed AT, it does 0-60mph in 2.6 seconds. Although it's as fast as the original Lamborghini Aventador, the most powerful European supercars can still eat it because of the C8 Z06's naturally aspirated engine, which is surprisingly the most powerful NA engine...in the world. As for the soundtrack, it's proper Southern hospitality because this engine roars like a muscle car. Hey, how about those Republicans?

Aside from the old-school engine that powers it, the dynamics are a worthy challenge for the C8 Z06. Using most of the know-how from the C8.R race car, the available Brembo carbon ceramic brakes, and the Z07 Performance Package, the C8 Z06 feels like home on the road and track. Getting crazy with it, the Z06 will show its iron fist approach to your driving pleasure. Consider yourselves Texas Smashed.

With its naturally aspirated V8 engine, C8.R-inspired dynamics, and sleek aerodynamics, the C8 Z06 has evolved from a typical Corvette into a proper purist's sportscar, akin to Porsche's 992 911 GT3. Because of such developments, the new model is proud to show its "Make Z06 Great Again" banner around town. 

This Corvette has turned...

Lotus Emira

Served as the replacement for the aging Elise, Exige, and Evora range, the Lotus Emira is a full-blown, all-new sports car that promises to be the best Lotus to drive in ages for it is known to be the last ICE-powered Lotus ever made. Times are tough because as the world braces for electrification, rest assured that Lotus's last-of-its-kind will be the best of its kind ever.

2023 Lotus Emira

2023 Lotus Emira

With prices starting at below 60K GBP, the Lotus Emira is an all-new model that competes with the likes of the Porsche 718 and the Maserati MC20. From every angle, the Emira is promising to be one of the best sportscars to drive in the age of the new normal.

Beginning with the design, the Lotus Emira is somewhat a mini-me Evija from top to bottom, bearing resemblance to Lotus's first electric hypercar. Although this is not an electric car compared to the Evija, the new Lotus design DNA made the Emira an attractive-looking car that deserves to be coveted.

2023 Lotus Emira interior

Step into the Emira's interior and you'll find that most of the high-tech stuff sprinkled into the dashboard is not the Lotus way speedo boys love. In the past, the Elise and the Exige's stripped-off interiors made the cars driver-focused in every way. For the Emira, it feels more like a fancy smartphone rather than a go-kart but it's still a driver-focused car fit for two, meaning you can enjoy driving to the track on a Saturday afternoon and then take your date to the fancy restaurant on the evening. Ah, the joys of driving a fancy Lotus sportscar that was kitted with tech and ADAS on it.

2023 Lotus Emira

The cream of the crop of the Lotus Emira is its performance and this is troublesome for those who are jealous enough to want one because, with such dynamics, it's going to be too awesome to be ignored. Running on a brand-new Sports Car Architecture, the Emira features two chassis and suspension settings ranging from a comfort-oriented Tour setting and the preferable Sport setting from the optional Lotus Drivers Pack, which makes the Emira more enjoyable to drive on the road and track. Coupled with the hydraulic steering, the Emira delivers a dramatic driving feel that is worth enjoyable to drive without the drama. Best of all, it feels down-to-earth and addictive.

Speedo boys who managed to get the £75,995 V6 First Edition are lucky enough to enjoy the Toyota-derived 3.5L V6 supercharged engine that produces 400hp of power, 430Nm of torque, and mated to either a 6-speed MT or AT with the latter capable of hitting 180mph of top speed. Those who are too late for that will have to make do with the 2.0-liter in-line four-cylinder sourced from the Mercedes-AMG A45, packing up to 360hp of power, over a half less than the Maserati MC20.

Although not the Lotus you would hope for because of the tech involvement in it, the Emira showcased to us that this is the peak performance of what a Lotus delivers and because being the last Lotus to be powered by an internal combustion engine, it's a light-hearted killer blow Lotus has unleashed to the world, making it too cool to be ignored.

Because this is the last ICE-powered Lotus in history, those who are expressing jealousy really wish they want to drive one someday because this is by no means the best Lotus in ages since the Elise and the Exige. Period.

Ferrari 296 GTB

The arrival of Ferrari's first PHEV supercar, the SF90 Stradale, showcased to the world that Ferrari's prepared for the age of electrification by putting all means necessary to create a powerful supercar that uses most of the LaFerrari's teachings to tear through the streets and racetracks without tearing the environment. Now, one of the late LaFerrari's disciples has arrived, and looks like it tries to be just like its big brother. Say hello to the first-ever 296 GTB.

2022 Ferrari 296 GTB

With pricing starting below three hundred grand, which is surprisingly less expensive than its big brother, the SF90, the first-ever 296 GTB is the newest baby Ferrari coupe that follows the teachings of the LaFerrari by incorporating the art of electrification the Ferrari way. That means, like the SF90, the 296 GTB is more than happy to tear through the streets and racetracks without tearing up the environment.

With the styling broadly similar to the SF90, the 296 is somewhat smaller than the SF90 as expected. As for the interior, it's a basic Ferrari interior as expected as well. It's driver-focused with less distracting features and comes with a super-complicating steering wheel that is as difficult to understand as the steering wheel used in Formula 1 vehicles. It takes a speedo boy with a master's degree in science and engineering to understand how it works but either way, it's better to sit down, shut up, and enjoy driving Ferrari's newest Berlinetta.

The Ferrari 296 is the first Ferrari road car to have a V6 engine mounted with an angle of 120 degrees between the cylinder banks. With the turbocharged 3.0L V6 engine bolted to a rear electric motor and a lithium-ion battery, this rear-wheel-drive PHEV supercar is capable of producing a total power output of 830PS and 740Nm of torque. Armed with the 8-speed F1 gearbox, the 296 has a 0-100kph time of 2.9 seconds and a top speed of 330kph, making it almost as good as the F8 Tributo.

Of course, being a rear-wheel-drive supercar for experts only, driving the 296 is no playtime, although the jealous zealots are driven to tears right now, wishing they want to drive one someday. Anyway, driving this car is no playtime because of its super-complicating technology underneath it. Yes, it has most of the Scuderia Ferrari know-how, the most advanced aerodynamics for a baby Ferrari, and the most sophisticated dynamics made for this car, but for a challenge, it would be best to rate it two-and-a-half on a scale of three. It's challenging at first but as you get addicted to its dynamics, you'll fall in love with this car easily and there's no way you would want to let go of it until you are fully satisfied. Easier said than done but whatever.

To get the most out of the 296, there's the optional Assetto Fiorano package with most of the upgrades used while lapping around Fiorano in 1:21. With specially made Multimatic shock absorbers, high downforce carbon-fiber appendages, a Lexan rear screen, and carbon fiber materials used all over the car, the Assetto Fiorano package made the 296 capable to show its true colors on the road and on the track.

While smaller and less powerful than the SF90, the 296 is worthy enough to follow the LaFerrari's skid marks as one of its disciples, and looks like this disciple just earned its stripes. Stripes colored in the colors of the Italian flag, of course. 

Game over, McLaren Artura. The 296 GTB is the PHEV supercar speedo boys want at this moment in time.

McLaren Artura

Back in 2013, McLaren created the P1, a hybrid hypercar that forever spectacularly rewrote the rules of electrification. Then came the Speedtail, which became the most powerful McLaren ever built. Thanks to such astonishing achievement, McLaren decided to employ most of their electrification know-how in their brand new supercar known as the Artura, Britain's answer to the Ferrari SF90 Stradale.

Priced at over 180K Pounds, the first-ever McLaren Artura is an entirely new McLaren that uses most of the know-how from the legendary P1 and Speedtail, creating a plug-in hybrid supercar that makes its first impression last for speedo boys behind the wheel.

Beginning with the design, the Artura is like a mashup between the GT's rear and the 570's front. Mind you, the Artura served as the replacement for the 570S (although its GT equivalent will continue as well as its big brother, the 720S). Although it's hard to determine which position the Artura sits in, rest assured it feels like it's the middle child of the family of elitists, which is nice. The interior, meanwhile, is typical McLaren without all of the showy features that most luxury cars have. You just get in, buckle up, hit the switch, and go. No explanations.

The PHEV powertrain is the Artura's core that brings life to this hybrid supercar. The 3.0L V6 Twin Turbo engine is mated to an axial flux motor and a refrigerant-cooled Li-ion battery producing 680PS of power and 720Nm of torque. Mated to an 8-speed SSG, it sprints from 0-60mph in three seconds and has a top speed of 205mph. That's less than its chief rival, the Ferrari SF90.

Running on electricity alone, it can go for as little as 19 miles, which is fine on the city streets until you hit the highway and return to engaging its petrol engine and make some noise.

In terms of dynamics, the Artura is McLaren at its best on the road and on the track because of its near-perfect weight distribution courtesy of its carbon bodywork, front double wishbone, multi-link rear, Proactive Damping Control, electro-hydraulic power-assisted steering, Carbon Ceramic Discs, forged aluminum brake calipers, and specially-developed Pirelli P-ZERO tires. It even comes with a Variable Drift Control that can adjust its drifting angle. Go to the least and it's no longer a drift machine but go the furthest, it's the hardest to control unless you have the skills of a pro drifter to do it. When set to its well-balanced setting, the Artura is fun to drive and fun to drift as well.

Although it's not a proper threat to the Ferrari SF90, the McLaren Artura follows in the footsteps of the P1 and the Speedtail with its electrified powertrain that will inspire others to do the same in the age of the new normal. Because of such dynamics and powertrain that will cater to the next generation of speedo boys, the Artura really is the McLaren you'd wish to have if you are itching to drive one someday. This car is now under red notice and the whole world's on its rearview mirror.

Ferrari SF90 Spider

The controversially fast and economical midship PHEV supercar from Ferrari, the SF90, is now offered with a retractable hardtop variant called the SF90 Spider, offering the same thrills as its coupe counterpart but with the foldable roof in it.

Priced almost half a million euros, which is more expensive than its hardtop equivalent, the SF90 Spider is the first-ever PHEV convertible Ferrari made that sets the new gold standard for high-performance PHEVs. As said, the Spider delivers the same thrills as its coupe counterpart but with the foldable roof in it in case you're cruising on the streets of Los Angeles like a proper high-roller with ill-gotten gains after hours.

Like the hardtop equivalent, the SF90 Spider features a plug-in hybrid setup where the turbocharged F154 4.0L V8 engine, producing 780PS of power, is connected to three electric motors, two on the front axle and one between the engine and the 8-speed double-clutch gearbox, resulting to a monstrous 1,000PS of total power output. Although it weighs 25kg more than the normal SF90 Stradale, the performance figures remain the same. 0-100kph time of 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 340kph.

Fast and scary the Spider is, it still boasts the same F1-inspired dynamics, electronic Traction Control, brake-by-wire control, and torque vectoring as its hardtop equivalent despite the slightly added weight. On the road, it feels civilized, but on the track, it's still as vitriolic as its hardtop equivalent. It's still a true professional driver's car from start to finish. Once hooked, you can't get enough with it until you are truly satisfied.

This or the hardtop?

Maserati MC20

From its humble beginnings, Maserati is known for making the most iconic racing machines and sportscars for gentlemen who prefer something quintessential and Italian in every way but not Ferrari or Lamborghini. Today's Maserati is nothing more than an Italian BMW because the current lineup consists of the Ghibli and Quattroporte saloons and the Levante SUV. Disagreed, Maserati prepares for its renaissance with the arrival of its brand-new sportscar called the MC20, the sportscar speedo boys can't wait to get their hands on it.

2021 Maserati MC20

2021 Maserati MC20

Priced at 210,000 Euros, the MC20 marks the true beginning of the Maserati renaissance and a true return to form where beauty and performance are what Maserati does best.

The story begins with the styling and this is where the MC20 showcases its critical side from every angle. Although mistaken for a lightweight sportscar like the Lotus Evora, the Maserati MC20's styling draws inspiration from the ancient MC12, the comfortable side of the Ferrari Enzo from two decades ago. With looks that can softly kill, the MC20's aerodynamics are beyond expectations.

Step inside the interior and you are greeted with its driver-focused cockpit that gives drivers an impression of driving a racing car on the track. Although track-focused in spirit, it's a well-tailored accessory every gentleman should have, especially when it packs a premium sound system and a Maserati Connect feature for their daily driving commodities. That sounds flashy and cheesy but this is all in the experience of being a high-value Italian sportscar that separates the men from the boys.

Speaking of separating the men from the boys, the main highlight of the MC20 is its performance and this is something everybody's feeling jealous of, wishing they want to drive one someday. Unlike most sportscars donning fancy hybrid tech, the MC20's powertrain is neo-20th-century stuff. It's a brand new 3.0L 6-cylinder twin-turbo Nettuno engine bolted to the middle at 90 degrees. It produces 630PS of power and 730Nm of torque and while mated to an 8-speed DCT, the MC20 can sprint from 0-100kph in 2.9 seconds and can go all the way to 325kph. This is a supercar performance the Italians can take pride in.

Aside from its supercar performance, the MC20's dynamics are worth driving for because underneath, it features a double-wishbone suspension system with active shock absorbers. They can really behave depending on which driving mode you're on; be it on WET, SPORT, CORSA, or on ESC OFF Mode.

Driving in CORSA Mode, the MC20's almost behaving like a true racing car on the track, but when the driver engaged ESC OFF Mode, this is where you'll need your adult diapers because, in this mode, the MC20's going all-out dynamic and it's going to be as crazy as trying to beat your favorite song on the EXPERT difficulty setting. It's struggling at first but when you are familiarized with it, the MC20 is a supercar you can't stop until you are fully satisfied with its result.

Also on the dynamics side, the MC20 really is a lightweight supercar from the start because underneath, it features a composite material monocoque soaked in carbon fiber, and combined with its lightweight materials assembled specifically for this car, it weighs one and a half tons.

The MC20 really marks the new beginning for Maserati and as the world is struggling with the new normal, where crossovers are superheroes, this is the antithesis every car enthusiast needs. With its strikingly great styling, driver-focused interior, and performance that is quintessentially Italian, the MC20 will soon be your newest favorite Italian supercar for the time being.

Ferrari SF90 Stradale

The Ferrari F8 served as the swan song for the petrol-powered V8 hierarchy that its famous predecessors left their mark on the road and track and with the F8 already left its mark in Ferrari's V8-powered supercar history, a bold new chapter begins. Enter the SF90, Ferrari's most controversial supercar that uses most of the know-how from the LaFerrari to create a thoroughbred like no other.

2021 Ferrari SF90 Stradale

So, what's it all about this new Ferrari supercar that costs over 400K euros? First is the name; the SF90 name is derived from Scuderia Ferrari's nine-decade history in motorsport, meaning Ferrari wants to put all of its racing know-how into this PHEV supercar that uses most of its knowhow from the legendary LaFerrari hypercar.

Yes, because it uses most of the knowhow from the LaFerrari, the SF90 features a plug-in hybrid setup, a first for Ferrari, where the turbocharged F154 4.0L V8 engine, producing 780PS of power, is connected to three electric motors, two on the front axle and one between the engine and the 8-speed double-clutch gearbox, resulting to a monstrous 1,000PS of total power output that pushes the SF90 to a 0-100kph time of 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 340kph.

Apart from the performance it delivers, the SF90's dynamics are somewhat different in every way thanks to the fact that it's a four-wheel-drive supercar but this is no 918, ladies and gentlemen, because, unlike the one that I just said, the SF90 features some serious tech such as electronic Traction Control, brake-by-wire control, and torque vectoring. Couple these with some serious aerodynamics and its race-inspired chassis and suspension setup and the result is a near-fantastic experience that is about as thrilling as a Rated-M videogame. It's almost as good as the LaFerrari but without all the drama and it's easy to fall in love with this car the moment you set foot on this.

On the track, the SF90 really shows its vitriolic side but on the road, it feels so civilized and unlike the LaFerrari, you can drive it while using electricity only.

Style-wise, the SF90 is like a mini-me LaFerrari in the size of the F8 and the interior is all Ferrari for the driver getting inside. It works not just as a track toy but as a grand tourer full-stop. It's the best of both worlds and Ferrari has done a rather good job creating the SF90. As a matter of fact, everyone's getting anxious to drive one.

Chevrolet Corvette C8

The Chevrolet Corvette is known to be an American icon because it's the sports car that ultimately symbolizes American freedom like soybeans harvested from American farmlands or shale oil drilled from American wildlife. It's the icon that put America in the world of sports cars that are heavily dominated by the Europeans and as times changed, Chevrolet made a radical approach to their new generation Corvette and for this new model, it's no longer your Grandpa's Corvette anymore because it's now a bit more different than the Corvettes of yesteryears.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette

That's because the all-new, eighth-generation Corvette, priced at 58,900 US Dollars plus additional costs, is now mid-engined and I know most Corvette purists know that making the Corvette mid-engine is a sacrilege and treason to its heritage but there is one very good reason why they made it mid-engined; fulfilling the dream envisioned by a certain expert who tried creating mid-engined prototypes for General Motors. Decades of hard work have resulted in the rise of General Motors' first mid-engined production car, which is the C8 Corvette, of course.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette

But before explaining more about its new mid-engined proportions, let's observe the design first and by the looks of it, the new model is a bit like a mash-up between the Ferrari F430's front, the side view of the previous Corvette, and the rear view of the Chevrolet Corvette, giving it a more Frankenstein approach to the new model but despite that, I think it looks fantastic at all angles and the design is one of the many reasons the folks behind the new model wanted to make the Corvette great again, whatever that means.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette interior

2020 Chevrolet Corvette interior

On the interior, the new Corvette features a more spaceship-like approach and once inside, you feel like you're in control of some futuristic fighter ready for take-off. Although radical, the futuristic interior really shows its cool toys to play with such as the vertical climate controls mounted on the side that separates you and the driver, the ultra-thin air vents, the race-inspired steering wheel, the Performance Data Recorder, Bluetooth connectivity, 4G LTE, and more. Aside from that, the Corvette offers three different kinds of seats to choose from ranging from the basic GT1 seats to the high-end Competition Sport seats.

In its normal, hard-top guise, you can really take the roof off manually by getting out of the car, detaching its roof, and placing it on the trunk, which is now on the front in case you're forgetting something. But in the Convertible, you can close or open its first-ever retractable hardtop at the push of the button even while traveling at 30mph, simple as that.

2020 Chevrolet Corvette

Now we get to talk about the new model's midship conundrum and why it matters. Achieving the reality envisioned by the late Zora Arkus-Duntov, the father of the Corvette, the new mid-engine layout delivers rear weight bias and improved downforce because the windshield is now over the front wheels. Simple as that.

When you toy around with it, you will have the lasting impression of why the new Corvette, thanks to its mid-engine layout, behaves like a Ferrari F430 on so many levels, and because of its newly found dynamics, it's worth coming back for more even though it's more challenging and more dynamic to handle than the old one. You can really get hooked on this car all year long until you are fully satisfied with it and there's no turning back now once driven.

Powering the new Corvette is an all-new 6.2L LT2 V8 engine mounted in the middle, which produces up to 495HP of power and 470lb-ft of torque. In Stingray form, that is the most powerful engine ever made in this variant, and mating to this all-American V8 tour de force is a double-clutch gearbox, which is great but utterly dramatic of course.

For Z51 Performance Package variants, the Corvette comes with the brand new Magnetic Ride Control 4.0 which reads the road every millisecond and adapts in about 10 to 15 milliseconds. Couple that with the Driver Mode Selector and the result is a very intelligent sportscar that adapts to every road condition like a supercomputer. It can be comfortable in the city streets or downright dynamic on the track, this is how the new C8 Corvette rolls.

As I was saying, the new C8 Corvette Stingray starts at 58,900 US Dollars plus additional costs and it is available in both Coupe and Convertible. Like the Ford Mustang, the new C8 Corvette, for the first time, can be configured to RHD specifications, meaning its official distributors from Japan, the UK, and Australia are more than happy to sell one.

So, what can I say about the C8 Corvette? While it's treason to the Corvette history, as purists feared, because of its mid-engine layout, it's by far the best sports car ever to come out from America and those behind it sure know how to make a Corvette great again, whatever the reason.

Welcome to the new world order.

McLaren GT

McLaren has been wowing the modern supercar scene for almost a decade with the Sports Series, the Super Series, and the Ultimate Series. Now, the British supercar maker is trying to rewrite the rules by creating their dedicated grand tourer that is more on comfort and more on manners, well almost. Say hello to the first-ever McLaren GT, a grand touring McLaren made for casual driving in mind.

2020 McLaren GT

Priced at around 163,000 Pounds unless some optional extras from the pricelist will hike it further, the new McLaren GT is a serious super grand tourer that is all about refinement on the road rather than being a racy supercar with some F1 knowhow involved underneath it. 

Of course, most McLaren people said that they've already made a grand tourer in the form of the 570GT but the new GT serves as the replacement for the 570GT, and judging by the customer feedback, the McLaren GT is taking shape with its perfect balance of style and performance suitable for the gentleman driver rather than the average speedo boy in the neighborhood.

Beginning with the styling, the exterior of the McLaren GT can be easily confused with the Ferrari F430 because the front looks like it of course, whereas the back of it is nothing much to say for sure. Despite that, the GT's styling fits rather well for its grand tourer status as well as the well-crafted interior and some luggage space suitable for the lifestyles of the rich and famous.

The McLaren GT is separate from every other McLaren supercar because it uses its own monocoque body structure developed specifically for this car. Not only a hundred kilograms lighter than its closest rival but it can accommodate up to 570 litres of boot space on both sides. Under the hood, the McLaren GT uses a specially-made 4.0L V8 Twin Turbo engine producing 620PS of power and 630Nm of torque. Mated to a 7-speed SSG transmission, it can do 0-60mph in 3.2 seconds and a top speed of 203mph. Not as fast as a Ferrari 812 but this is surprisingly quick for grand tourer standards.

Although the dynamics are focused solely on comfort in mind because the suspension, steering, and brakes are made specifically for this car, that doesn't stop drivers from taking it to a track like every Super Grand Tourer does because why not? Not only it can enjoy some leisure trips on the road but it can also do some laps on track even though it wasn't made to do so. It may be a grand tourer but it's still a McLaren and you'll have plenty of reasons to fall in love with it.

It's easy to fall in love with the first-ever McLaren GT from start to finish because while it wasn't quick enough to beat any supercar on track, it's worth stimulating to drive on the open roads. McLaren really pulled off the grand touring stint after the 570GT experience years ago and now, we're getting jealous to have one.

Ferrari F8 Spider and 812 GTS

The fastest Ferrari convertibles on the road, the F8 Spider and the 812 GTS, are uncaged and ready to stun the world with its speed and style with or without the roof. If you were to choose between the newest open-top Ferraris available, which would you like to have a go at?

2020 Ferrari 812 GTS

First, let's get to know the 812 GTS and at last, a V12 open top supercar from Ferrari after five decades. For starters, the GTS delivers the same performance as its hardtop equivalent with the retractable roof that can be opened in just 14 seconds at cruising speeds of 45kph.

It still comes with the rather wonderful 6.5L V12 engine which sounds so wonderful while driving with the roof down and this engine produces an Aventador-crushing 800PS of power and 718Nm of torque. It is mated to a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox which fits perfectly for its flagship open-top Super GT and despite being a convertible, it is almost as quick as the hardtop because not only the weight is almost as close to it, it goes from 0-100kph in less than three seconds and onwards to over 340kph, similar to the hardtop 812 Superfast can do.

The 812 Superfast is the flagship Ferrari grand tourer that works brilliantly on the road and on the track and with the open-top GTS, it still bears the same experience as its hardtop equivalent, allowing playboys to drive this super grand tourer faster and harder for longer until they are fully satisfied.

2020 Ferrari F8 Spider

If drivers are fully satisfied with the 815 GTS, they can move on to another fast Ferrari convertible and this time, it's a midship V8 one that can easily tickle their fancies even more. Of course, the Ferrari F8 Spider offers the same charismatic thrill as the instant classic F8 Tributo but with the roof down, drivers will love it even more.

The 488 Pista-derived 3.9L V8 Twin Turbo engine may produce 80PS less than the 812's but because it's mid-engined and armed with a 7-speed F1 DCT, it does 0-100kph in 2.9 seconds and onwards to 340kph. That's almost the same as the 812 GTS can do although it is heavier compared to its hardtop equivalent but nevertheless it still works just like the F8 Tributo. It zooms into the unknown at breakneck speeds and handles nearly perfectly on the road and on the track with precision and poise, putting this open-top mid-engined supercar in a different league.

Going back to the question above; if you were to choose between the newest open-top Ferraris available, which would you like to have a go at? It depends on the outcome but because the 812 GTS and the F8 Spider delivered similar speeds and performance even with the roof down, it's fair to say that these two open-top supercars have reached an honorable stalemate. No contest but these two are worth driving.

Aston Martin DBS Superleggera Volante vs. McLaren 720S Spider

Last year, Aston Martin brought back the DBS as the balls-out, amped-up version of the luxurious DB11 that blends comfort and performance at the same pace and with the new Volante version, the DBS gets even better-looking with the roof down, meaning there's plenty of cruising to do with the most powerful open-top Aston Martin ever made.

2020 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera Volante

The 247,500 Pound Aston Martin DBS Superleggera Volante delivers the same excitement as the hardtop equivalent, only this time, with the top opened. Unlike the DB11 Volante, which is available only with the AMG-derived 4.0L V8 Twin Turbo engine, the new DBS Volante carries the same 725PS 5.2L V12 Twin Turbo engine as the hardtop equivalent and while it weighs slightly more than the hardtop equivalent, it still goes from 0-60mph in three and a half seconds and onwards to 211mph, which is surprisingly impressive in a car that blows its Vanquish Volante predecessor in hard water.

Unlike the coupe, the DBS Volante features numerous aerodynamic tweaks that differ from its hardtop equivalent because of the clear difference what happens when the roof is opened or closed and with that, the downforce is about 3kg less than the coupe but despite that, it is still as savage and lairy the coupe of course. It maybe a super grand tourer, it maybe quiet, and it maybe as classy as a woman in track suit doing zero gravity stuff but it is heavenly addicting to drive. You'll find plenty of reasons to enjoy the new open-top DBS any time you want.

The DBS Superleggera Volante is still a slice of heaven to drive even with the roof open but while this is all about heavenly shades of glory, the DBS Volante should better watch its back because in about a second, it might get yanked by a certain joker out of nowhere and there's one...

2019 McLaren 720S Spider

This is the new 720S Spider, the open-top version offers the same thrills as the hardtop equivalent, only with the roof opened. Although it is priced ten grand cheaper than the DBS, the 720S Spider will surely toy around the DBS for fun.

It carries the same 720PS 4.0L V8 Twin Turbo engine as the coupe but thanks to McLaren's skillful engineering, the weight has only gone up to 4%, meaning it can still do 0-60mph in almost three seconds and onwards to 212mph, just like its coupe equivalent.

Although different than the coupe in terms of performance and looks, the 720S Spider still behaves like a proper open-top hypercar. Still comes with the same high-tech wizardry as well, making the 720S Spider more of a toy rather than a car. It's like an iPhone for milky jokers but aside from being a claws-out, gung-ho, high-tech supercar, the 720S Spider can act like a grand tourer on its own right one switch at a time and like the coupe, the 720S Spider is an all-rounder, meaning it has all the speed, the comfort, the drift, and the space fit for a sportscar like this.

It's easy to fall in love with the joker than a little slice of heaven even though both of these cars were deemed to be challenging to get off the starting line. The DBS is very exciting to look at for a Super Grand Tourer, the 720S is all about a mentalist that delivers all the right stuff to entertain wealthy owners into driving one. These two British open-top sportscars may be in a different class but they can deliver the best driving experience drivers can't get enough of.

Ferrari F8 Tributo

From the 308 GTB to the 488 GTB, the lineage of V8-powered Ferraris has proven that despite being called the baby or the mid-child of the range, they can still upset through their V12-powered big brothers in terms of style and performance, and for this year, the Prancing Horse delivered their biggest salvo yet which is going to be the end of an era but a prelude to another new chapter. Let's get to know the ultimate V8 Ferrari known as the F8 Tributo.

Ferrari F8 Tributo

True to its name, the Ferrari F8 Tributo is a fitting tribute to all of the greatest V8-powered Ferraris in history from the 308 to the 488 because this is the ultimate midship V8 Ferrari to rule them all. It costs about 230K Euros and while the expensive price tag puts you in a difficult position, there's something special about Ferrari's last hurrah to the V8 bloodline.

For starters, they've retained the same 720PS 3.9L V8 Twin Turbo engine from the hardcore 488 Pista so with the F1-style double-clutch gearbox in place, it goes from 0-100kph in less than 3 seconds and onwards to 340kph. In other words, it can easily trump the Lamborghini Huracan Evo by a long shot but it can be easily spooked by Britain's V8 champ, the McLaren 720S. Both of them have similar performances but while the 720S is a proven joker on the road and the track, the F8 is something more of a precious muse on the run.

On a clean run, the beating of the turbocharged V8 engine is about as smooth as a grass whistle with thorns but when the turbos kicked in, the F8 completely tears time and space like an amped-up Millennium Falcon getting away from its hostiles. In other words, this supercar really rattles the minds of drivers with its swooping performance that will leave them breathless to the final lap.

Apart from the mind-blowing performance, the F8 is lighter and more aerodynamically efficient compared to the 488 GTB it replaces and it's armed with a cutting range of tech such as the improved Side Slip Angle Control and the Ferrari Dynamic Enhancer Plus, among many other improvements from the predecessor.

It managed to shed 0.5 seconds from the Pista when it went around the Fiorano and while the half-second feat is worth a surprise, the dramatic dynamics really put the F8 a class apart. It brakes dramatically, it handles dramatically, and above all, it's a dramatic supercar that drives as beautifully as the moonrise. There are no other words to describe this beauty, although the interior is much of an Achilles' Heel to some due to being a carryover from past models since the 458 as well as the Exige-esque rearview.

Despite its questionable faults, the F8 is a clear reminder that Ferrari's V8 engineering has reached its peak and as years pass by, the F8 will shine bright on the road and track through the very end.

McLaren 570S Spider and New Alpine A110

Time to move on to the McLaren 570S because back when McLaren unveiled their baby McLaren, they wanted to make a decent rival to the Porsche 911 Turbo, the Audi R8, and the Lamborghini Huracan, and despite being the younger brother in the range, the 570S feels like every other McLaren I knew and you can keep driving this car as long as you want until you figure out its inner strength hidden beneath its carbon fiber body. Now, let's open the top on this newest addition.

2018 McLaren 570S Spider

This is the new 570S Spider and while it features all of the best bits and bobs from its hardtop equivalent, it even comes with a folding roof that allows drivers to close or open even in a middle of cruising speeds. Those who are familiar with its hardtop equivalents as well as its other variants such as the lesser 540C and the comfort-focused 570GT are quick to realize that while most of the baby McLarens under the Sport Series banner may not match the grunt of its bigger brothers, they all work perfectly well like what every exotic should be but what about the new open-top version?

First and foremost, it still comes with the same 3.8L V8 Twin Turbo engine from its hardtop equivalent that produces 570PS of power output but a word of warning however is that because this is the open-top version, you might expect this to be somewhat heavier than its hardtop version due to added rigidity and it is, only 46kg added on it so the performance will be slightly affected by it and as a result, 315km/h (196mph) of top speed, which is slightly slower than its hardtop equivalent.

Despite the added weight, the 570S Spider still behaves pretty much like its hardtop equivalent because its carbon fibre MonoCell II chassis won't give in to the added rigidity provided by its weather-resistant roof and other parts of it and as a result, it still handles like a dream and you can really go nuts with everytime while having the roof open to enjoy the better sound quality of its V8 engine, which is as silent as Hacksaw Ridge. It's surprisingly high-tech indeed, which is fine by McLaren standards but in the case of the less-knowledgeable driver, it can get a bit twitchy until he switches the default settings, wondering what might have been.

The 570S Spider is a wonderful open-top supercar to drive but what upsets you is the pricing as this car starts at £164,750 (Php 11.124M) but when you read through the list of optional extras, it's going to be as expensive as a Rolls Royce Phantom and it will be a total waste if you crash it by accident.

So, the pricing can really upset a man from buying this open-top McLaren but it can upset him more because of the added extras, really then the 570S Spider is a whack so if you're not in a mood for a supercar like this and prefer something a bit more casual, perhaps you'd be interested with this...

2018 Alpine A110

Yes, this is the legend reborn, this is the all-new Alpine A110 and like you and me, we are getting jealous to drive the revival of the legendary machine that made headlines in the world of rallying. With the styling that draws inspiration from the legend itself, the A110 is all about blending tradition with innovation and it comes with a wide array of features that will bring pleasure to the drivers.

Unlike the 570S, the A110 wasn't an intimidating car to drive especially what's under the hood is a newly-made 1.8-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine that produces a maximum power output of 252hp and maximum torque of 320Nm. Because it weights about as similar as a Ford Fiesta, you'd get a power-to-weight ratio of 233hp:tonne, meaning this can do 0-100kph in 4.5 seconds, courtesy of its 7-speed DCT.

Because of being light, the A110 feels just right to drive in the corners and with its incredible aerodynamics, you can refer to the way it handles as trying to finish the Mijuku Dreamer song in EXPERT setting with a full combo. Also, you can take it to the city streets and it feels very civilized indeed. It's perfect for track days, it's perfect for grand touring, it's everything what a revived legend it should be.

However, there's a major problem ot the new A110; the cost. This car starts at 55,000 Euros (Php 3.3M) and you can't have one because it's already sold out. Don't worry though because by next year, more new A110 variants are coming at you so it's going to be a long wait before you get your hands on the new A110 you've always dreaming for. Sad face indeed.

So, what now? Well, since you can't get your hands on a new A110 until next year, it's best to make do with the 570S without the optional extras that will upset your briefcases full of money because between you and me, these cars are a challenge for the bravest because these cars are like songs in EXPERT or TECHNICAL setting with some random stuf to tap on because you will never know what kind of tricks these machines possess so watch out when you're behind the wheel of these beauties.

McLaren 720S

Since the beginning of the decade, McLaren is back in business when they first launched their first supercar after the legendary Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, known as the 12C. From the 12C to the 650S, the so-called Super Series combines motorsports knowhow with road-going elements that balances it out to create a supercar built for both roads and tracks, wherever lay ahead. With the advent of the 720S, the Super Series has entered its second chapter and this could mean a whole new beginning for Woking's finest.

2018 McLaren 720S

2018 McLaren 720S

720S, that new name for McLaren's second advent of the Super Series range does ring a bell to any nosy morons but while this name will ring a bell to anyone who wears diamonds on their bodies, the long-awaited replacement to the 650S shows that McLaren's still in a game of thrones dominated by the holy trinity of the sportscar realm such as Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche. McLaren's still an underdog to this battle but with the 720S, they've really progressed themselves to tackle Europe's finest.

2018 McLaren 720S interior

Before I get all nosy about the 720S, let's take a look on how it looks and for the 720S, it pinpoints what will their future sportscars look like while drawing inspiration from past models like the 12C, the 650S, and the now legendary P1 hypercar. While inspiration is pushing this car too far, some conspiracists would think that the 720S looks unbelievably similar to the hypercar that never was. Care to guess what that is? It's the one with the unpronounceable name on it and when bathed in white color, this car will have a slight case of identity loss, if you know what I mean.

Inside, the 720S looks pretty much the same as the other McLarens in the range but the hardware's all new with thanks to JVCKENWOOD. There are special features on the 720S that can be engaged while on track duty, allowing it to check on lap times, telemetry, g-force, speed, and other stuff, making it the perfect track toy to drive on the weekends or holidays. Pretty sweet, huh?

2018 McLaren 720S

Time to see what the 720S can do and let's start with brand new 4.0L V8 twin turbo engine that delivers a titular 720PS power output and 770Nm of torque. Armed with the double clutch gearbox, it does 0-60mph in less than three seconds and onwards to 341km/h (212mph), which is more than you can expect from its chief rival, the Ferrari 488. Of course, Ferrari's going to respond against the 720S with a more powerful 488 later on but for now, all eyes on its dynamics.

Call it challenging and dynamic if you may but for McLaren, they've perfected the 720S' track-honed capabilities with new and exciting mechanical components that makes the 720S a bewildering car to drive for both roads and tracks alike, starting with the newly improved Proactive Chassis Control and because of its new suspension and power-assisted electro-hydraulic steering, you get the same feeling from mastering an expert-level song with everything you got without losing your focus on one beat after another but word of warning, however, that when this car gets twitchy without warning, the 720S can be downright crazy. Apart from the chassis, the 720S utilizes a carbon fiber Monocage II structure enveloped by its lightweight aluminium and composite bodywork, which makes it lighter than the previous Super Series lineup  and because this car is lower than the previous Super Series range, the wing on it generates more downforce than the 650S. It's hydraulically operated as well, giving the 720S improved driver downforce, DRS, and high speed braking. Now that's gut-wrenching aerodynamics done right for this new species of McLaren supercars.

There's one cool feature I haven't mentioned on the 720S and that's the new Static Adaptive Headlight which works like every other cars that turn their lights when they steer but it's different to the ones we're familiar with because while the 720S's headlamps uses 17 LEDs in each headlight, about 12 of them light to the direction the car is heading.

McLaren's all new 720S starts at 218,020 Pounds but that's just the start because when you look at the options list, it gets even more expensive than your monthly mortgage, and if you ever think about driving one at the city center, you'll be nothing more of a public nuisance or a show-off so it's best to leave it on the open roads where you can drive this car anytime you want and nobody will yell at you. But still, with all that mechanical components that makes the new 720S a supercar above, this will leave the likes of the Lamborghini Huracan and the Ferrari 488 in a traumatic headache because in a game of top trumps, the 720S will eat those Axis Powers firebrands alive like piranhas in a volcanic lair. Scary.

New Audi R8 Spyder vs. Ferrari 488 Spider vs. Lamborghini Huracan Spyder

You're a rich man, you spend a lot of time doing stuff at the CEO's desk and then going out gambling your luck at the casino on your day-off. You have a lot of money to spend on those super-fast cars but your probability of your choosing would be open-top supercars because you want to look cool driving on those things. There are three choices, which one would you go for?

2017 Audi R8 Spyder

Let's take a look at your first choice of the latest open-top supercars on the market today, the brand new Audi R8 V10 Spyder. You may have noticed that while it maybe slightly heavier than its hardtop equivalent, it still comes with its new Audi Space Frame as well as its 5.2 V10 engine developing 540PS of power and 540Nm of torque, while mated to a 7-speed double clutch gearbox which shifts like magic bur that doesn't stop you from spoiling your day out with this open-top supercar, especially that it can get from 0 to 100kph in 3.6 seconds and onwards to 318kph. Because it's priced less than two hundred grand, this new Audi R8 Spyder is a supercar bargain.

2017 Ferrari 488 Spider

Then, let's take a look on the new Ferrari 488 Spider, which is an updated version of the old 458 Spider, the car that will make everyone agree that it's the best mid-engined supercar ever made. It may have the same V8 as the old 458 but it's been miniaturized and turbocharged so this 4.0L Twin Turbo V8 engine produces 670PS of power output while mated to its F1 7-speed double clutch gearbox, resulting to its 0 to 100 km/h time in 3 seconds. While it may slightly more than the coupe version, its dynamics remain just as fun as the normal one and with the roof up, the upside of having one on the track day meet is that while you can enjoy its F1-inspired dynamics, you can really hear the noise of its V8 engine very clearly but since this is turbocharged, you can't hold your case for a little while longer, knowing this this Ferrari's too matured for its own good.

2017 Lamborghini Huracan Spyder

Or if you're unhappy with those two, you can have the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder instead. Like the new Audi R8, it has a 5.2L V10 engine but it produces 610PS of power output while mated to the same 7-speed double-clutch gearbox as the R8. The age of V10 engines maybe soon endangered but with the Huracan Spyder, you can assure that this modern open-top supercar still has that old-school charm that car enthusiasts really love to listen like the sounds of good old 80's rock and roll from their old CD collections. Because this is a Lamborghini, you can be very addictive while driving this open-top Huracan on the road and on the track, despite the added weight on it.

With these open-top supercars currently available on the market, it's hard to decide which one is the best. The Audi R8 Spyder has the most value for money, the Ferrari 488 Spider for its power that beats them in their own little game of top trumps, and the Lamborghini Huracan Spyder for its old-school charm that wouldn't settle for anything else. How you live it up and sum it up with those three is up to you, my dear bachelor and bachelorette.
