McLaren F1
The sight of it makes your blood curdle. Nobody brings it up. Before the nervous V-12 kicks up and the intake scoop starts sucking up acres of air above your head, you have had plenty of time to unlock the McLaren F1's dihedral door and hump into the centre driver's seat. When you first see this car, all you can think about is how gorgeously designed it is.
The 627-horsepower F1 is exactly what design director Gordon Murray promised it would be: the ultimate driving experience, the most authentic feeling of a street-legal grand prix car. It humbles all preceding slingshot exotics. Don't think of the Porsche 959, Ferrari F40, Jaguar XJ220, or Bugatti EB110. When compared to McLaren's BMW-powered blockbuster, they are overweight, underpowered gentle giants. The F1 not only easily defeats them but also does so with chilling sound effects.
Selling the F1 short would be to dismiss it as a toy for the wealthy. Murray's storyline did not call for compromise. Modern technology and perfection were. Murray's 10-hour concept brief to the close-knit team tasked with creating the first McLaren road car in 1990 has already entered the annals of automotive mythology. Murray decided on a three-seater with the driver in the centre, sitting well forward like in a racer, to offer the most pure driving experience possible.
 627 horsepower, an unusual carbon-fiber structure, a top speed of 240.1 mph, and a $815,000 price tag. As a result, this supercar increased in value and rarity until it was untouchable. With its distinctive doors and centred driver's seat, it is a true racecar for the road. It is the most distinctive car due to all of these factors.

Did cars become less interesting after 90’s ? We believe so.


 90s were simpler, people loved manual cars and had more mechanical bits in the car than gimmicky electronics. The cars felt fast, unsafe but fast and the pleasure of driving was absolutely unmatched. In fact, only few modern cars can compete with the gems that 90s gave us. Memories, wallpapers and nostalgia, let us take you to the 90s and make you fall in love with cars again.
