Default Middle East's first super car to cost $3.4 mil




Supercars are a common sight in some parts of the Middle East, but until now, that region of the world has gone without an exotic of its own. Enter the Lykan Hypersport, an ultra-exclusive ride from Dubai-based startup W Motors. The upcoming car is said to accelerate from 0-62 mph in 2.8 seconds and offer Lamborghini-rivaling style for $3.4 million, according to WardsAuto.

This car looks really cool. I would love to see one up in person.

So fucking stupid. "Oh what type of rubies or diamonds do you want in the headlights?" Are you fucking kidding me? I like the style, and the really hard edges mixed in with the curves over the wheels, but come the fuck on.

Different strokes for different folks. That might be some sort of custom with their culture... Besides that the car looks awesome. I would love to see this car do some runs.

it looks like a great prototype that is still in the refinement stages.

3.4 million? for what?
a car that is a combination of a LFA, R8, and a lambo with over the top ricer touches?
Diamond plated LED lights and gold stiching in the leather. Come on.
Take all that shit away and you're left with a rather unoriginal looking car, with an engine pulled from, most likely porsche, with performance stats that it won't really be able to achieve. 2.8 second 0-60. Yeah, it looks like it has the rubber on the ground for that... and a top speed of 245. it takes a bugatti, a car specifically designed to go stupid fast, over 1,000 hp to get those speeds... and this car is supposed to do it with only 750? right.
Is there really over 2.5 million bucks worth of bling on this thing?
1-1.5 mil for a car like this. sure, I'll believe it. Maybe even stretch it to 2 mil.
so what, did they use an ounce of diamonds for the head lights?
