I watched this couple of days ago... I wonder... Is this MP4 in the line with 458 Italia, or maybe better...?

I think the plan is for it to compete with the F458 and LP570-4 but only time will tell as to whether it's better or worse.

MP4-12C is pure masterpiece and by far the best car in its class. My friend will handle the import for ex-YU markets and I have all possible info about McLaren. Ferrari 458 Italia is let we say on second place after McLaren. All others are in the distance...

I really think McLaren is on another level...but not just one...let's say 2-3 over 458 italia..I'm pretty sure also that Porsche will accept this new challenge and will finally push hard the 911's development

Ummmmmmm... Not so bad...

Very neat video. Would be nice to see those two very talented drivers be involved in final development of the car. Sort of in a way similar to Sena with the NSX.

Well, dayUM, no shortage of photos there!

Overall very nice just lacking a little of the "wow" factor of the original. Plus, not entirely sold on the Star Trek logo.

They are planning a "higer up" model to compete with the memory of the "Macca", no?

Yup. Apparently Murray is also planning one of his own too.

I agree. The steering wheel looks like it's from a kit car with that centre.

I'm sure it will be a hell of a car, but the design leaves me a bit unprovoked.

I predict this will be the winner of EVO's eCOTY 2011.

Hmm, a British car with the name "McLaren" on it... what gave you that hint.
