RE: Pic of the Week: McLaren 12C Spider

I've never been able to get excited about the coupe but this is sex on wheels and yes I'd put my money into one. (if I had that sort of cash).

Beautiful - in my eyes.

If I had the cash I would buy 458 and this just to see which is best although I reckon the noise of the fezza would win it for me, the power they extract from their engine without turbo charging makes it even more special a trick McLaren missed out on, the original F1 had 6 litre NA V12,central driving position,light weight, and gold in the engine bay! Had Mclaren followed Gordon Murrays original and best(F1) there would be no contest. They have tried to beat Ferarri and haven't quite pulled it off, still love it though and if rich enough I would have to have one as well as a 458!

Released in September, should be an epic car. Normal one is an incredible machine. Better looking than the 458.

looks lovely, but it doesn't look authentic....??

Agreed. The video is cut so much as to look fake. Shame.

Modern supercars look a little fat and bloated compared to there forefathers!

Had a look at the picture then had to look at the comments to see if anyone else was disgruntled at how over processed this photo is. They have even added fake stars to the rear bumper and door. Lovely car despite the over processed photo.
