I Want: The McLaren MP4-12C
Douglas Charles For around $265,000 this McLaren MP4-12C can be all yours… And by the looks of it, it’d almost be worth hocking yourself up to your neck in debt to own one.
At its heart, the McLaren MP4-12C features a revolutionary carbon fibre chassis structure, the Carbon MonoCell: the first time a car in this market segment is based around such a strong and lightweight racing car engineering solution and the first time any car has ever featured a one-piece carbon fibre structure.
The 12C is powered by a bespoke McLaren ‘M838T’ 3.8 litre, V8 twin-turbo engine producing around 600bhp, driving through a McLaren seven speed Seamless Shift dual clutch gearbox (SSG).
In other words, it’s pretty sweet.
