Why it matters
The first hypercar from W Motors, a Dubai-based maker. Only seven were built, and one appeared as a hero car in a Hollywood film. The limit of seven follows the design's numerical motif.
How rare is it?
Six separate kinds of rarity – never combined into one number.
Each kind of rarity is rated separately and never combined.
