Title: McLaren MP4-12C stats released
Post by: Shimmy on 14 February 2011, 22:23:05

Thought I'd address the balance of retro motors with something new and packed to the gills with technology.  :y

The stats for this car are simply staggering.  Comfortably faster than a Ferrari 458, rides better than an E Class and gets better economy than our Omegas!

I still prefer the looks of the 458, but for everything else I think the new McLaren has it licked. 8-)

It doesn't have the presence of the European exotica but it sounds like it will more than keep up with most of them.  If I was honest it would be a car I would love to have a go in but not to buy. I just hate parting with cash at the best of times and the money these sort of things are up for makes me very unwell.
