McLaren Automative began as the McLaren Racing Team, named after founder Bruce McLaren. Partner Teddy Mayer was an influence, and a later partner, Ron Dennis, formed McLaren Automotive in 1989. The company originally designed the F1 GTR to be a road car, but redesigned it to international specifications for Grand Turismo Racing. In 1995 seven F1 GTRs entered at Le Mans. The cars won first, third, fourth, fifth and thirteenth overall and first through fourth in the GT class.

In the eyes of critics and car fans alike, the 1993 McLaren F1 is the greatest supercar of all time. Despite tough competition from the record breaking Bugatti Veyron, this British supercar regularly finds itself at the top of many a car critic's favourites list. The F1 LM variant took the outrageous performance and handling characteristics of this supercar and enhanced them on its release in 1995, making it the most powerful F1 available for the road.
There are some cars with performance and beauty so spectacular that even people who aren't car enthusiasts take notice, but those cars usually come with a hefty price tag. If you find yourself with an extra million, maybe one of these cars is an option for you.
Bugatti is a car company that was established in 1909 in Molsheim, France, by an Italian, Ettore Bugatti. The company was famous for manufacturing some of the fastest cars of the time, and later went on to make airplane parts. The Company was sold to Hispano-Suiza in 1963, and the name eventually became the property of Volkswagen in May, 1998. Today, Volkswagen uses the Bugatti name for the production of limited edition sports cars.
