Barely a week goes by without some announcement of a new 2,000bhp, 300mph hypercar from a start-up company no-one’s heard of that will absolutely never get built. But this one is different, because this incredible Technic Supercar captures a hypercar that is currently being built for real by a man named Benjamin in his garage. And as he’s already built a Ford GT40 replica from scratch, we have every reason to believe this will drive in anger too.

Created by previous bloggee Levihathan, this incredible Technic imagining of Benjamin’s to-be-completed hypercar is an engineering masterpiece in its own right, with mid-mounted V6 engine (a replica of Nissan’s VR38DETT), working steering that locks and unlocks the rear differential based on steering angle, inboard fully-independent suspension with anti-roll bars, push-button scissor doors, and a six-speed paddle-shift gearbox with gear indicator.

There’s also an opening front trunk (revealing spinning cooling fans connected to the engine), an opening rear clamshell, a three-seat central-driver cockpit, full exhaust plumbing, and even pneumatically operated ‘air’ jacks to raise the car off the ground for wheel changes.

It makes for one of the finest Technic Supercars we’ve ever featured, and you can check out all of the stunning imagery at Levihathan’s ‘Hyperpilote 1:8’ Flickr album plus find full build details and a link to building instructions at the Eurobricks discussion forum. Take a closer look via the links above and perhaps even build this astonishing creation for yourself, ready for when Benjamin’s full-size version one day hits the road.
