The McLaren Senna is Named After Someone Special

I’ve always loved the name of the McLaren Senna. It’s beautiful, and it flows well, just like the car itself. I never gave much thought to the name’s origin. It’s not as obvious as the Kia Telluride — which was named after a city called Telluride in Colorado — but instead has a lot more …

For $190k Lanzante Will Give Your McLaren a Touch of the F1 GTR

Not every special-edition car is actually special. But when the car in question is a McLaren, it’s a slightly different story. But it’s not McLaren itself that’s releasing the cars.

Before the McLaren F1, Gordon Murray Made a Rocket

Even if his latest work, the T.50, hadn’t been well-received, Gordon Murray would always be remembered for the McLaren F1. While it’s no longer the fastest production car in the world, it’s still the fastest naturally-aspirated production car. But even outside its top speed, the McLaren F1 is a marvel of 90s auto engineering. However, …

This Obscure Toyota Inspired the McLaren F1 Supercar

Although the latest Bugatti may have eclipsed it in raw speed, the McLaren F1 is still an incredible supercar. Not to mention it’s still the fastest naturally-aspirated production car in the world. Even though it was never designed for racing, a mildly-modified road version won Le Mans outright in 1995. It was the first production …

7 Crazy Doors You Never Knew Existed

For a normal car, there isn’t much to a door. You pull the handle, and it opens. You get in. You close the door. Maybe your car comes with keyless entry, soft-close doors, or retractable handles, but beyond that, they all work pretty much the same. When you spend a little more money on something …
