What’s the Supercar in Furious 7 that Jumps from a Building?
How closely did you pay attention to the trailers for the new Furious 7 movie? The trailers feature action everywhere an amazing array of supercars including McLarens, Lamborghinis, Ferraris, Bugattis and of course the Charger that is always the lead car role in the movie, but there was one more that hasn’t been seen before. During the glass smashing tower crashing scene a particular car shows up with an angular design and a hyper powerful build that makes some of the others on the scene look like extras instead of important supporting characters for the Charger.
The car in question offered a mid-rear engine layout in a 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat six-cylinder setup that came from Porsche and was tuned by RUF. This gives the car 770 horsepower and 708 lb.-ft. of torque though a six or seven-speed PDK transmission in rear-wheel drive. With this power and the design of the car that features a host of carbon-fiber element this machine can easily reach sixty mph in under 2.8-seconds. Amazing for a car with this kind of performance this beast will offer a fuel number of 24 mpg, making it an actually efficient exotic sports car.
On the inside this car has seats that are actually stitched with gold thread and a holographic center display. There is of course 24 hour concierge service anywhere in the world (when you see the price you will understand why). The company that built this car stated they pride themselves on offering exclusive access to high end parties and events that can easily be secured by them on behalf of the driver, making it easy to head out and have a great time meeting the rich and famous wherever you are in this amazingly high powered super car.
On the front of this awesome car is a pair of headlights that have diamonds encrusted into them in order to be a highly expensive piece of machinery. How many of them? There are a whopping 420 diamonds in the headlight bezel of this car which totals 15 carats and these are mounted in titanium accent pieces. This is possibly why the character chose to use this car to crash through two towers made of glass in the movie, knowing the diamonds would be able to break through the glass and land them to safety, especially when there was a rocket grenade on his tail.
At a top speed of 245 mph and a build that resembles in some ways many of the other super cars, but is so much more than all of them, what is this car actually? The car that smashed through the glass tower in Furious 7 is a Lykan Hypersport and is extremely limited. This car is so limited only seven exist in the world and the price tag to own one is a massive $3.4 million (hence the global services offered). When you do get the chance to see the movie keep that in mind, the price, the design and the overall awesomeness of this seriously amazing car.
