So, this car is pretty special. 2014 McLaren P1: The Revolution that Changed the Supercar Status Quo There’s no denying that modern supercars owe their existence to the legendary McLaren P1 that truly changed the game when it was launched. Combining its 3.8l twin-turbo V8 with an electric motor, this 217 mph rocket ship along with the LaFerrari and Porsche 918 truly changed the supercar game moving forward.

Subsequently, all AMGs following were also road-going racers. This particular example is finished in a stunning Designo Blue with a Dinamica Black roof. This car was delivered to Germany but has spent a lot of its life in the UAE, with 225 miles on the clock.

This cabriolet variant of this psycho car takes excitement to an all-new peak. With even more thrills as you bask in that glorious 4.3l V8 roar.

The 770 horsepower, 211mph F12tdf. TDF stands for Tour de France, but there’s nothing to tour with this 6.3l V12 psycho. It’s a car that demands its driver to be the best and if not, it's backwards through their pearly gates in a roar of V12 fury. This particular example has spent a lot of its life in the UAE and has clocked 4,358 miles on the clock. This tdf is finished in Ferrari’s signature Giallo Modena which is contrasted by a Nero Alcantara interior.

The Pagani Zonda LM. This legendary 750 horsepower, naturally aspirated 7.3l V12 monster truly defines the word, exquisite. It was built after one of Pagani’s most loyal Zonda customers wanted something to capture the magic of a LeMans Racer.

It will sell at over $12,000,000. 2017 Pagani Huayra BC: A Truly Unmatched Experience Of course, if $12,000,000, is quite steep then for a much more reasonable $4,500,000 you can have this.

And this Centenario LP 770-4 Roadster is truly such a car. With 770 horsepower roaring from its 6.5L V12, this 217 mph raging bull will create as much chaos in speed and noise as it does in its style.
