Weber Sportcars 'Faster One' Supercar Now Available

Weber Sportcars from Tobel, Switzerland has come out with what they call as the world's fastest street legal sports car. Named 'Faster One' the car is one hell of a lightweight licensed beast. We called it lightweight as this mid-engine two-seat racer weighs just 1100 kg (2425 pounds). It can be yours for 1.6 million Swiss francs ($ 1,553,500 or £ 783,400)

Faster One is powered by a 7.0L supercharged V8 that churn out 900 hp / 662.4 kW at 7,000 rpm and produces a peak torque of 1,050 Nm at 3,900 rpm. It comes with semi-automatic sequential six-speed gearbox which is operated via shift paddles on the steering wheel. Weber states that its Faster One has a top-speed of over 261 mph (420 km/h) and can do 0-62 mph (0-100 km/h) in 2.7 seconds; 0-124 (0-200 km/h) in 6.6 seconds and takes only 16.2 seconds to do 188 mph (302 kmh).

For better aerodynamic the super sportscar features doors with push button rather than that external door handles. Integrated into the roof is an airbox that supplies the engine with its intake air. The electronically controlled deployable rear wing not only creates downforce but also serves as an air brake.

The buttons on the steering wheel give the driver the option to select different mappings to adjust power output and throttle response to the specific driving situation. Weber Sportcars produced its own 12-piston fixed calipers that viciously grab vented ceramic disc brakes measuring 380 x 34 millimeters on front and rear axle. These brakes can bring the two-seater to a stop from 100 km/h in short 30 meters or so.

Among the comfort features present are power steering, climate control system, power windows and a sound system with integrated navigation system. A rearview camera facilitates maneuvering in reverse.
