McLaren MP4-12C early photos and details (Frankfurt Auto Show coverage)

This is supposedly one of their "volume" cars, and they will be releasing several more models in the coming years as well, hoping to push 4,000 units per year.

meh. I think I like the original McLaren F1 better. Especially the LM street version.

It's a cool looking car, and impressive numbers for sure.

If it's going to shift for me though, why do I need a 4 inch tachometer staring me straight in the face?

Oh hells yes, that is hot!

Which reminds me, the McClaren F1 is STILL a BAMF of a car.

The McLaren F1 is one of my all-time favorites. This car has a very strong family resemblance, especially in the profile shot. I also see cues from the F430. I applaud the use of turbos.

Hmmm the driver isn't in the middle this time around. Clearly the goal wasn't to build the ultimate street legal super car again.
