McLaren Solus GT
Limited to just 25-units worldwide, all of which have been sold even before its public reveal, the single-seat McLaren Solus GT is a video game supercar brought to life. This single-seat, closed-cockpit supercar was featured in Gran Turismo Sport, powered by a naturally-aspirated 5.2L V10 engine generating 817 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque, pared with a seven-speed sequential gearbox, enabling it to hit 60 mph in just 2.5-seconds.



Weighing a mere 2,205-pounds with downforce rated at over 2,645-pounds, the Solus GT offers a driving experience that is close to that of a real Formula 1 race car. To step inside, you’ll have to open its distinctive cockpit canopy, which slides forward through a shallow arc. The steering wheel itself takes inspiration from F1, with dash displays and essential controls directly integrated. What really sets it apart is a driving seat molded to the driver’s individual body shape, FIA-homologated race suit included. If one does pop up for resale later, expect to shell out over $3.5-million USD for it. As for speed, the Solus GT in factory form is even faster than the Novitec McLaren 765LT with heavy mods.
