W Motors Lykan Hypersport
All new Lebanese supercar reveals essential novelty doors in latest studio photos
You'll notice performance and driving dynamics don't feature anywhere in that statement, nor the video that followed its unveiling in concept form at the Qatar motor show in January. Debbas does boast, however, that the Lykan will be "the first car in the world with LED encrusted diamonds" and white gold in its headlights. And you thought Audi was getting carried away with the whole lighting-based bling thing... Obviously if diamonds aren't your thing you can have sapphires, emeralds or rubies according to the finished colour of your Lykan, just seven of which will be built.
Diamonds in the headlights, promises Debbas
Indeed, ahead of the production version's debut at the Dubai motor show in November a new studio shot showing off that supercar staple - novelty doors - has been released. Lambo does scissors, Merc and others gullwings leaving W Motors few options in this regard. So it's gone for the reverse-hinged 'suicide' look.
It is, to quote a press release: "Compact and muscular, timeless and distinctive. A true statement of exclusivity."
For more evidence of this you can, if you wish, check out The Making of a Supercar - Episode Two on OSN on July 22 at 1905h (UAE time).

That video is the very definition of a vanity project. Like in the PH text above, the emphasis is on building an expensive car, not a good car. Anyone with money can build an expensive car.
What I don't get is the luxurious bit - why not build a big GT or a 4 door? Mid engined sportscars aren't a good base for luxury.
I'd love to see their business-plan as I really can't see how they can develop and produce AND make a decent profit for that amount.
Presumably it's going to be a parts bin special with the parts they do design like the body and specific chassis components being conventional technology-wise and thus fairly economical to produce.
It will probably sell just because it is made by people with a specific Customer in mind who will play the loyalty card.BVut to be honest, its a bit of a joke. The styloe is rubbish, it looks like a cross of all the supercars of 3 years ago, there is blatant plagerism going on here.

It only needs to be 'exclusive', 'expensive' and look even more flamboyant than an Aventador.
He hopes.
t. He looks like an idiot. End thread. What sort of Brainless.
And it doesn't even look that good.
