The McLaren P1

theDreamer · 09-28-2012, 10:16 AM

Quote:

Ultimately, the P1 is a downforce car, producing 1,323 pounds of the stuff — or five times as much as the McLaren MP4-12C. Combined with the rear wing, which also acts as an air brake, the front flaps improve handling, braking and straight-line stability. Despite the massive downforce, the P1's drag coefficient is a typically sports-car-like 0.34.

Quote:

What's the engine? McLaren's not talking. Neither are they talking about the suspension. What they are saying is that the P1 will have a power-to-weight ratio of 600 metric horsepower per tonne — or around four pounds for every horsepower.

It looks so ... weird. But so cool!

Ztoon · 09-28-2012, 01:56 PM

How'd you feel if you just bought the MP4-12C.

b1adesofcha0s · 09-28-2012, 01:57 PM

The front kind of looks like a frog's mouth.

Depends how much money you've got. This thing will cost at least 4-5 times as much as a MP4-12C. If that's not a big deal then you can just have both

Ztoon · 09-28-2012, 02:02 PM

Yeah, for a D.D..

Good lord that thing is beautiful. Detailing it would be a bitch with all those nooks and crevices.

If you bought a P1, I'm pretty sure you'd pay someone to experience that hell for you.
