Get behind the wheel and witness how the 918 Spyder sets an unofficial lap record of 1:38:02 for production cars at the Phillip Island grand prix circuit.

Default This Porsche 918 Spyder Sports Viper Green Paint, $2 Mill Asking Price

Porsche 918 Spyders are sometimes referred to as 'green hypercars' thanks to their hybrid powertrains, but this particular example has the paint to match its reputation.

Offered for sale by a Californian dealer on cncexotics, it's painted in a vibrantViper Green, and, as seen in these pictures, it carries the appealing Weissach Package, while riding on a set of HRE aftermarket wheels, with the original ones available upon request.

Another key aspect that should interest a prospective buyer is the mileage - 1,141 miles (1,836 km) in this case, which would normally make a car seem fresh off the grid. However, since we're looking at one of just 918 examples that left the Porsche factory to target the even rarer Ferrari LaFerrari and McLaren P1, and since the usual models that are listed on the used car market have been driven for a lot less, it doesn't make it quite a steal.

Default A Martini-Liveried Porsche 918 Spyder? We'll Drink To That

A stunning 2015 918 Spyder has hit theused car market in the U.S. courtesy ofPorsche of South Shore in Freeport, New York.

This particular car indicates only 165 miles on the odo and it is all the more beguiling for being outfitted with the $84,000 optional Weissach package.

For the uninitiated, this translates into lightweight magnesium wheels, numerous weight saving measures like titanium chassis bolts and has been fitted with a selection of new carbon fiber aerodynamic parts, such as the fins on the rear bumper.

Arguably the most alluring aspect is the Martini racing livery. In Porsche's never-ending quest to cut weight, the Martini theme isn't painted onto the body; instead, the entire exterior finish is a lightweight foil wrap that's fitted over the hypercar's carbon fiber skin.

Inside, the original owner of this 918 opted for black leather across the dashboard, door panels and seats complemented with Acid Green stitching and piping.
