Evo Director, Harry Matcalfe takes a ride in the latest upcoming Porsche supercar, the 918 Spyder. The 918 Spyder is the ultimate Porsche supercar since the Carrera GT almost ten years ago. You might therefore be quite surprised that it's a hybrid!
Yup that's right the 918 Spyder is a powered by a hybrid engine. Don't for a second think this has anything in common with the likes of the dreadful Prius. The engine itself has been re-rated at 585 horsepower and then for a little bit extra "oomph", two electric motors bump the power up to around 795 horsepower. That's serious power for relatively light-weight, little supercar.
Check out the video below for yourself.

Ferrari FXX Antics. How Not To Treat A $1.8million Customer
You'd think that if you were hand picked by Ferrari to take part in the uber-exclusive FXX program, you would be treated with a heck of a lot of respect. Well, this video actually proves the opposite!
The Ferrari navigator not only slams the door of the customers $1.8 million track-toy, but goes as far as to Karate-chop the bonnet! See the action unfold for yourself below.

'Vette Day Out
A collection of fantastic Chevrolet Corvettes. These pics were taken in Hamilton, New Zealand, where the Corvettes paraded around the Hamilton race circuit before the big V8 Supercar race. Enjoy!
The Z06 in Yellow was my favorite 'Vette of the day |
Nice ass |
Some more asses, this time, a slightly "older" ass |
I'm sexy and I know it |
Nothing like some wood on the steering wheel. This is a fantastic looking interior |
This 90's corvette convertible has everything you need. A big V8 and the wind in your hair. If only the steering wheel was on the right side of the car... |
A classic old-school Stingray |
This classic "Vette was one of the finest examples on show. Super tidy and the white wall tyres were a damn fine icing on top of the cake |
I want a Corvette now |

Lamborghinis at the Mall
Found these Lamborghinis parked inside a local shopping mall. The cars on display were a Lamborghini Gallardo V10 and a Lamborghini Murcielago V12.
Side-by-side, not something you see everyday |
The Murcielago, with its 571 horsepower V12 is a much more impressive beast |
The Gallardo is much smaller than the wider and longer Murcielago |
