Granny Drives a Porsche 918

There’s no denying it – this granny is cooler than your grandma, at least by the car she drives; the woman was spotted driving a Porsche 918 hybrid hypercar, where else but that pensioners’ pasture, Florida.

If you don’t find this funny, then you need your humor hormone secretion glands checked – it’s hilarious!

She even looks like a typical Florida senior, the one popularized by the clichés…

We don’t know the specifics of how she got to drive it, but it could be hers or she may very well be Porsche’s oldest home delivery person…

Whatever the reason, this is quite a sight (although you can't really tell she's old in the photos all that well) and you can check it out for yourself below, in the gallery after the virtual jump.

Lexus LFA Looks Like it’s Standing Still in Drag Race Against Porsche 918

The Lexus LFA is what we would have called a proper supercar more than five-six years ago, back when the Bugatti Veyron was still awe-inspiring. Now, it eats hybrid hypercar dust like you wouldn't believe, as you’ll see demonstrated in this video.

The LFA is a very special car, made out of carbon fiber and with an engine that revs faster than analog dials can keep up. However, it’s simply no match for a Porsche 918 Spyder which, in a drag race, almost makes it look like it’s standing still.

The Lexus is still a fast car, sprinting to 100 km/h or 62 mph in 3-ish seconds, but the Porsche’s electric boost helps it maintain high levels of acceleration as speed builds.

Check out the drag racing run in the video posted below courtesy of Shmee150.
