The W Motors Lykan Hypersport landed a starring role in Furious 7 as a locked up "beast in a cage." What was weird about that, is that most people had never heard of the Lykan Hypersport before that. What was this strange supercar, and was it worthy of the praise Dom and Brian gave it? We looked into it, and the story behind W Motors and the Lykan Hypersport is deeper, and more eye opening than I ever imagined.

yeah..overhyped and too expensive for nothing
Correction: A shell that thinks it looks fancy but everyone around it thinks it's just trying way too hard at being something it isn't
And I think another part of its misconception as a hypercar, is being called the HYPERSPORT. It lays its cards down immediately for anyone who’s heard it’s name. I think swapping the fenyr and it’s names would have aided in the misperception issue.
Exactly. It wouldn't be that big of a deal if it was just meant to be a status symbol. However, the name itself clearly implies that they want to market it to the hyper car crowd, and it just isn't a hyper car.

the bit about it belonging in the display room was spot on. this isn't being sold to people that want to take it to a racetrack, it's being sold to people who want to be able to show and tell other people that they have a 3.4 million dollar car.

Saw one of these in person once in Miami and was stunned never expected to see one out on the road and honestly, it looks amazing. It’s not worth the price, but it definitely makes a statement. Sounds great too, as if that were a surprise.
@Isaac Clarke I couldn't believe it. Not everyday you see a 1 of 7 car driving around on the road.

@@PlugInRides The languages existed long before the religion. The Muslims don't own Arabic.
@@ihlasschwarzenegger6680 I'm talking about the numeral systems that are currently used in the world today, not the language. Roman numerals exist outside of the dead language of Latin.
In Saudi Arabia, road signs often include both the Western Arabic, and Eastern Arabic numerals.
Actually, the current Arabic written language has changed somewhat since the Qur'an was transcribed, meaning that Modern Arabic writing did not exist prior to Islam.
"The Qur'an was written without diacritical marks. At the time of Muhammad, Arabic orthography was yet to develop into what we have known for centuries. There was no distinction between letters of the Arabic alphabets of similar shape and there were no vowel marks. There were no dots above or below the letters either. For the interpreters who added diacritical marks, to read the Qur'an as it was originally written, would lead the reader to interpret and choose for themselves from the many possible meanings available in the Arabic without diacritical marks."

Nolan: "This car does what it's supposed to do."
Also Nolan: "This car does not do anything it says it would."
A bad twist on his words.
Pretty sure you're getting confused here.
Nolan just says that the lykan fits the bill for a luxury status supercar, but as a supercar it more often than not feels pretty regular as almost nothing about it is particularly special.
Sure it's "1/7" cars but not many people are into the brand because they arent a "car" brand in the normal sense.
Porsche is known for rear engine rwd boxer cars, lambo is known for their angular wedge vertical doors and v12, while ferrari is known for smooth lines also v12's and F1.
W motors is just... W motors? Sure its a legit brand but it doesnt have the touch or magic of what made the rest distinct.
Its just known because FnF made it seem like a godsend when in reality its usually beat by even modern sports cars in the same time. ( There are no records of any Lykan going as fast as manufacturer claims, sure its running but thats about it, Im willing to bet it even is slower than your average run of the mill r35 gtr which released around those times as well. Usually when a car is this dodgy about claims, you can bet your money they cant back it up.
They're riding the line of opinion and lawsuit.
Well, this car is built to be pretentious. And it is pretentious alright.
I lived in the Middle East when the Lykan came out. Saw it at both the Dubai and Qatar autoshows on debut. You hit the nail on the head. This thing isn't competing with Bugatti, Koenigsegg, or Pagani... at least not in the traditional western view. It's all about exclusivity, and flaunting wealth/status.
Kind of like Koenig, Bugatti and Pagani...? I might add Lambo to the list.
@@Stellar-Cowboy nah not at all all those cars at there roots are super cars now on the other hand the lykan well it’s prolly a money laundering scheme
@@Stellar-Cowboy They at least try for superlatives and achievements other than cost. Cost becomes a factor to reach their goals, but it isn't THE goal as it is with the Lykan. Bugatti is trying to be the fastest production car in the world, Pagani and Koenigsegg build road legal bespoke race cars with a keen focus on performance. W Motors builds (in theory) flashy expensive toys for people with too much money.
So basically Lykan is a piece of shit for rich idiots, who want to have tasteless flex.👎
@@FluidKaos can you at least agree that Lamborghini also builds flashy toys for rich people (although it’s not nearly as pronounced as with W Motors

@@RACGump i mean looks are subjective but a piece of art?
The Lykan Hypersport used a Ruf frame, the CTR 3 used the same frame, chassis and presumably transmission as the Lykan, which was a collaborative process, apparently. I've got no clue about the engine in it though. I doubt Ruf sold them a CTR 3 clone, the stats are certainly different. I'd rather have the experience and expertise evident in the ctr3.
As far as I'm aware most of the value was in the headlight gems lol. Stupid car, for flashy bastards. Just buy one of the handful of CTR3's instead. Those are definitely real, much cheaper and plenty fast enough ;D

Shel had 3-4 cars that got repainted MANY times. They got toured around and "sold". Once you paid for your car they'd tell you they were cleaning it up and getting it ready for you.

The simple fact that W Motors is completely on board and cool with Genius Garage redoing the Fast and furious car makes them solid I think.
The fact that a youtuber with students builds a replica on a very limited budget and does a better job than W motors showing it, makes them very "not-solid".
Allowing a youtuber to build what is essentially a kit car isn't really that impressive.
That’s somehow worse than the initial story, which is “the car doesn’t exist”. Now it’s “the car is being built by two TH-camrs and not the company that is supposedly producing them”. Because what is W Motors supplying if they don’t even in house the engine and drivetrain?

@@tupolev.designs Also I am sorry you are a fanboy of a car company that has never really sold any cars; like I said. Seek some help bro. Good luck.
Watch Casey Putch build one, all the info about it is there. He even talked to the Lykan people to get it right. The Lykan is a Porsche, it even has the same windshield.
Casey was not happy with this video...its really clickbait.
Putch's car isn't even a real Lykan. Its a kit car.
@@drakeorion94 I watched his video, he made some stupid points. He just came across as a butthurt fanboy.
@@laParka777 no it's a heavily modified boxster.
@@GTSW1FT ok a boxter with a lykan body kit.....wait that sounds awfully familiar for some reason
When hoonigan and donut upload at the same time and you have to decide between the two

They happen to coincide with my lunch break so I just watch both usually.
How about watching both dingus
Its like an iphone x on $100k phone case with diamonds on it
In forza the lykan is so weird to drive , i think its becuse nobody have never driven hard that car so they dont know how it handle
Im just going to assume it drives like a giant piece of garbage then.
Funny enough for those of you who know Casey Putsch, he bought the stunt replica of the Lykan from Fast 7 and turned it into a running car using a Boxster drivetrain with his students just had to bring that up
Glad someone called this out
didn't w motors actually approve of this
@@raykreiger4123 yeah, I believe they sent measurements to the students and I think they were actually invited to the facility to see a real Lykan? I'm not sure on that last one
@@raykreiger4123 Considering the Lykan is just a very expensive stunt it would make sense for them to allow someone to turn it into a real performance car. You know, let people get closer to your brand
@@juanin200 lol true
It's like the whistlingdiesel t-shirt that cost $1,000 dollars and just says "this shirt cost $1,000 dollars"
So a dude in Florida didn’t design this as a body kit for the infinity g35 coupe frame!?!?!?!?!?!
12:20 "Honestly Donut changed my life"
I honestly couldn't agree more. Donut really has changed all of our lives at some point.
I guess "pimp my ride" changed our lives too.
they and f&f got me into cars in the first place
“Monumentus”? Is that like monumental?
When you click on the video so fast that you can't think of what to comment
This reply is to remind myself how early i was onc3
i can reply tho, stfu
how about you watch the video before you comment
@@perc30slr hi cockroach
@@perc30slr shut up!
Nopoob
Lykan is the epitome of form over function.
But not even the form is that great. There are plenty of luxurious cars that look significantly better (obviously a subjective opinion).
"Form" it's ugly AF
That would be the Devel Sixteen
**Fake jet engines**
Middle Eastern car culture as a whole is the epitome of form over function. Lykan is the perfect car to showcase that.
@@SurviveWeWill it doesn’t even have good form tho like it’s not a terribly ugly car but by no means does it beat 300k super cars
Who know this car because of asphalt
I used right the Lykan off a just a shell car.
I genuinely thought, “oh it’s another “Devil Sixteen” which claims some ridiculous numbers that realistically are like nothing but talk”.
That Lykan looks like an insane snake that doesn't have fangs to bite LOL

That First Hypersport is also the one on Forza, so they also let them get the first one as well i guess.
they hit 5 mil so quick,i was here when they had 1mil and it just went 0 to 100 real quick
Ooooooooo Devel Sixteen DEVEL SIXTEEN PLEASEEEEEE 🙏🏿
Yeah! Please!
I think anyone pretty much knows that car was a big flop
Precisely!
@@mdrz yeah i know but im still curious 🤔
I saw Rimac drive one in Zagreb few years ago. I asked him is he going to build a battery for them and he just smiled. The car looked sick tho
Casey Putsch is building one that was in the live show. He's even had factory support that he didn't expect. Pretty sweet
