Woah!

My jaw just hit the effin floor!!!!


Have I meantioned that for sports cars my favorite coor by leaps and bounds is canary yellow. This thing makes my heart skip beats. They only made a few McLarens in yellow, probably less than double digits... this is probably the only one in California. Thanks SOOOOO much for posting this Nick.



Well... I'm off to rob a bank! B)

[Chris_Doane]

Wow....that Aston Vanquish they have is pretty hot too. Course the McLaren comes first.

[Cremazie]

US $1,000,000.00 is the current bid... ? Can we scrape it together for Sixty8?

[capriceman]

I hate how the driving controls are in the center.

[Enzora]

that car is yellow because I urinated all over it!

[Sixty8panther]

Someday when Bill Gates throws me a bone I'll buy one... if it ISN'T a yellow one I'll do it up in DuPont Flat black and old school rat rod pinstripes with gloss red wheels and z-rated whitewalls! My vanity plate will be IM POOR. :P

[Lance Truthhammer]

I am sure we can manage on Sixty8's behalf, I mean, it says LOW monthly payments right under the place bid button... I am sure we could get a good deal... -E.S. Mail

Actaully McLaren is the real deal... not some over-glorified penis extension like some exotics that barely manage to outdo the Corvette.

If you spend the time and read the story of this car... the 30-something years it existed as a hypothetical and the amazing job BMW did on the powerplant you would probably have respect for it. It's the brainchild and pipe dream of the company's namesake... Bruce McLaren. Gordo Murray played a very interesting role in this car's development too.

One of my favorite things about the McLaren is how it was such a double-F-you and a slap in the face for Honda.

They were asked to develop the V12 and laughed off the target weight-to-power ratio, and the target cost of developing the motor. For their first choice of Honda McLaren went to Mercedes Benz and then to BMW.

Well guess what? BMW came in UNDER-Budget, aheasd of schedule and the weight requirement was met. Oh and one last thing... the engine's output was not the 600 horsepower that McLaren wanted... it was 627.

Later that grew to about 640.


Suck to be you Honda. Another reason why BMW kicks @$$! Edited December 15, 2005 by Sixty8panther

That's how much these fine cars are, I suppose. Check out the Veyron!
