sajid33 · 9th January 2008, 22:09

Developed by engineers that helped deliver the iconic McLaren F1, the Caparo T1 is a new uncompromised and unconstrained sports car that sets new boundaries in performance, driver experience and enjoyment.

The car has a higher horsepower-to-weight average than any other car in the world and is reported to be capable of exceeding maximum speed of 322 km per hour.It has an estimated 0–96 kilometres per hour under 2.5 seconds and onto 160 kilometres per hour under 5 seconds depending upon conditions.

This racing car costs around Rs 2 Crore.
so watch out guys !

hmmmm!!!! let's see caught fire on fifth gear stalled and also caught on fire on top gear. safest supercar, i think blue line is safer for pedestrians than this thing for it's owner.

Even though it did the fastest lap times in the hand of the stig, it was disqualified saying that thing cant go over speed bumps.

Sankar · 10th January 2008, 07:58

Why is it called the world's safest supercar?

speedzak · 10th January 2008, 09:28

Man! This thing is going to be in Delhi? My goodness! It's alone is worth going for the show.

IT CAUGHT FIRE ON FIFTH GEAR NOT ON TOP GEAR...it was perfectly fine in stiggys hands

IMHO, the safest supercar will be one without the starter assembly. So all it can do is sit in the garage n look good.

SuperSyn · 10th January 2008, 15:42

Can we have some pictures and reviews (or links to them) of this Craparo T1? Never heard of this thing before....

And what's with comparision and link to Mclaren F1? That's like Jaylalitha comparing herself to Laetitia Casta. Mclaren F1 was developed by Murray and his team of engineers at Mclaren. Have these Craparo guys bought out Mclaren?!

Haha, Caparo T1 is actually the worlds most unsafest car. Those who go to Auto Expo, stay far away from the T1 or wear fire proof attire and carry a fire extenguisher along.
