[coff] evora [coff]

bloody light though!

price is likely to make your eyes water. Thi is what Mclaren should be making, not that stupid merc.

Looks like a cross between the Evora and the F1. Very nice but I'd have thought 3 times the price of the Evora. Irrelevant to me as 1) I can't afford it and 2) I couldn't do it justice.

3times?
I bet 6 times.
And I bet they already have orders based on one thing - The F1

I prefer its styling of the back over the evora.

Wow - 120k for a Mclaren?
I know it isnt cheap but by comparison .....

Very, very cool. You just know it's going to be good.

hopefully will kick the ass out of F430s and such like for £40K less and become very valued by enthusiasts that really drive, rather than pose

[Scuffers]

interestingly, I looked up the wieght/power for the old Macca F1...

3 seater car, 1,140kg and 627Bhp (the race versions were up to 691).

engine apparently comes in at 266Kg's...

The original Macca was bloody gorgeous, the sound track at Le Mans in 1995 with JJ Lehto driving through the night will stay with me to my grave!

The new Macca will be great to see, I just hope they achieve what they want to with it being technically advanced and from a performance point of view.

Great to see!

When Mclaren were fined for spying on Ferrari, at the time, I thought their best response would be to build some road cars and take a chunk out of Ferrari's road car business.
Looks like the same thought occurred to Ron.

I hope they do!

Nope, not a Lotus Evora rip off at all I really can't see the similarity at all maybe the rounded front and the fact it's the same colour as the press car and has 2 doors and 4 wheels??? I can see the Mclaren F1 echoed in the side view though which is a great thing but I don't really like the venys on the side, a tad overkill for me but the rest is great, just tone down the side ducts a tad??
