The W Motors Lykan Hypersport landed a starring role in Furious 7 as a locked up "beast in a cage." What was weird about that, is that most people had never heard of the Lykan Hypersport before that. What was this strange supercar, and was it worthy of the praise Dom and Brian gave it? We looked into it, and the story behind W Motors and the Lykan Hypersport is deeper, and more eye opening than I ever imagined.

And I think another part of its misconception as a hypercar, is being called the HYPERSPORT. It lays its cards down immediately for anyone who’s heard it’s name. I think swapping the fenyr and it’s names would have aided in the misperception issue.

@ShaggyRogers1 Месяц назад

Exactly. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if it was just meant to be a status symbol. However, the name itself clearly implies that they want to market it to the hyper car crowd, and it just isn't a hyper car.

The Lykan Hypersport used a Ruf frame, the CTR 3 used the same frame, chassis and presumably transmission as the Lykan, which was a collaborative process, apparently. I've got no clue about the engine in it though. I doubt Ruf sold them a CTR 3 clone, the stats are certainly different. I'd rather have the experience and expertise evident in the ctr3. As far as I'm aware most of the value was in the headlight gems lol. Stupid car, for flashy bastards. Just buy one of the handful of CTR3's instead. Those are definitely real, much cheaper and plenty fast enough ;D

@Kodunkion 3 года назад

Pretty sure you're getting confused here. Nolan just says that the lykan fits the bill for a luxury status supercar, but as a supercar it more often than not feels pretty regular as almost nothing about it is particularly special. Sure it's "1/7" cars but not many people are into the brand because they arent a "car" brand in the normal sense. Porsche is known for rear engine rwd boxer cars, lambo is known for their angular wedge vertical doors and v12, while ferrari is known for smooth lines also v12's and F1. W motors is just... W motors? Sure its a legit brand but it doesnt have the touch or magic of what made the rest distinct. Its just known because FnF made it seem like a godsend when in reality its usually beat by even modern sports cars in the same time. ( There are no records of any Lykan going as fast as manufacturer claims, sure its running but thats about it, Im willing to bet it even is slower than your average run of the mill r35 gtr which released around those times as well. Usually when a car is this dodgy about claims, you can bet your money they cant back it up.

@@ihlasschwarzenegger6680 I'm talking about the numeral systems that are currently used in the world today, not the language. Roman numerals exist outside of the dead language of Latin. In Saudi Arabia, road signs often include both the Western Arabic, and Eastern Arabic numerals. Actually, the current Arabic written language has changed somewhat since the Qur'an was transcribed, meaning that Modern Arabic writing did not exist prior to Islam. "The Qur'an was written without diacritical marks. At the time of Muhammad, Arabic orthography was yet to develop into what we have known for centuries. There was no distinction between letters of the Arabic alphabets of similar shape and there were no vowel marks. There were no dots above or below the letters either. For the interpreters who added diacritical marks, to read the Qur'an as it was originally written, would lead the reader to interpret and choose for themselves from the many possible meanings available in the Arabic without diacritical marks."

It's not a beast in a cage. It's just a pretty pony that overheats if you drive it too long. I'm sure it's performance would be overstated too. I'm sure if it did a 0 - 100 test, it would be lousy and borderline embarrassing, but what do you expect when you have components made of gold within it? Gold is pretty much the heaviest metal there is, and very malleable, so it's probably 1 of a number of things in this car that will only slow you down. It's just a status symbol car. It's just a mimic like how some mantis flies look cooler than wasps, but wasps still rule.

This reminds me of when "Nikola", the infamous truck company, did a "test drive" for their prototype truck, letting it roll down the hill because it didn't really have an engine inside, although no one was aware of that fact. Too bad GM invested about 2 Billion dollars in that company, money that evetually went down the tubes (There's a video about that affair on this channel). Never liked that Lykan project, always seemed to be too exaggerated and cringy in some cases (Like when it was starred in the "Fast and Furious" movie for example)

Shel had 3-4 cars that got repainted MANY times. They got toured around and "sold". Once you paid for your car they'd tell you they were cleaning it up and getting it ready for you. Then they used your deposit to build you a car. The difference here is Carroll actually delivered on performance. He was a LEGEND.
