McLaren P1 prototype storms Paris motor show - Autoweek

You gotta be kidding me!

Heads up Aimee, it's P1 prototype, not P12.

Interesting...

Its not as pretty as a Pagani, but you just KNOW its all serious under the skin. I'm very eagerly awaiting the production car, specs, and numbers its puts up.

Its going to be a good year for supercars!

Never thought I would use 'beautiful' and 'menacing' in the same sentence to describe a car. Great job McLaren!

Wow, looks great. Can't wait to see some numbers.

I knew I should've made a thread, rather than update an old one.

This thing didnt tickle my fancy when I saw it for the first time, but the more I look at it, the more I LOVE it. And like VII said, I'm sure it's ALL business underneath.
