Supercars keep getting more and more extreme, but this may be the most extreme yet. It's called the Caparo T1, and it's as close as you'll ever get to a genuine race car for the road. It's been designed by a bunch of former McLaren Formula One engineers, and concedes only as much to practicality as is strictly necessary to make it street legal...but just barely. Make no mistake about it: this is no Bugatti Veyron. While that supercar tops the height of luxury, this is bare bones. The whole car weighs just 1200 lbs, and with a 575hp 3.5-liter V8, pound for pound it's one of the most powerful cars on the street. Caparo just took the wraps off its production-ready T1 at the London Salon Privé at the prestigious Hurlingham Club, where final details on pricing, availability and a new sales and service network are expected to be announced shortly.
