We’ve seen the Huracan in official Lamborghini photos, but this is its first sighting in the wild. Caught on the street in look-at-me orange paint, the Gallardo’s successor cuts a mean profile in this hot new spy shot!

RED ON BLACK PAGANI HUAYRA
Buyers are prepared to pay massive premiums in order to have the Huayra immediately. If you’re in the market for a new Pagani Huayra, the waiting list is pretty long. The Italian carmaker currently churns out the bespoke hypercar at a rate of just 30 a year, so buyers are looking at around a two-year build time. James Edition is aiming to cash-in on the impatience of Huayra fans, with its latest offering; a red-on-black model that carries a price tag of 1,950,000 Euros. That’s around 900,000 more than Horacio Pagani is asking, but that’s the cost of driving it away today.

SUPERCAR MADE MORE ASTIG!
ASMA Design has a history of building some pretty impressive programs for a variety of supercars and while it technically hasn’t started on one for the McLaren P1, it’s safe to say that judging by the rendering it released on what the P1 would look like after it’s done with it, ASMA should do it as soon as humanly possible. One look and you can immediately tell that the P1’s level of aesthetic wonder just went to overdrive. The added vents and ducts, in particular, do more than just making the P1 look more tiger-fierce, but the improved air flow and aerodynamic stability are all equally important in giving the supercar more balance.

FASTEST ELECTRIC CAR?
The birthplace of Nikola Tesla may soon produce an electric car faster than any powered by gas. Mate Rimac, a Croatian car designer, already has the record for fastest quarter-mile by an electric vehicle. Now he’s gunning for the Bugatti Veyron. Mate promises his Rimac Concept_One produces 1,088 horsepower and can do 0-100 kph (62 mph) in just 2.8 seconds. That would put it in a tie for the third fastest car behind only the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport and SSC Ultimate Aero TT.

SCHUMI UPDATE
It is completely open as to how long doctors will keep Michael Schumacher in his induced coma. It is now approaching a month that the seven time world champion has been lying unconscious in a Grenoble hospital, following his late December skiing crash. There are unconfirmed reports that the great German may never wake up, or that if he does he could be in a permanent vegetative state. Germany’s Bild newspaper reports that “there is still no date set for when the doctors will wake him up from deep anaesthesia.”
