Looks a bit boring from the rear. But I dig the front and side profile compared to the 570.

120 degree V6 with in-V turbos? PHEV capability? That's a very interesting powertrain.

Surprised they didn't try to advertise the connection to the F1 team more closely with those features.

Only 3300 lbs curb weight and 670 bhp combined. I need to know the price please!

found the price: Available to order now; choice of four specifications with US pricing from $225,000 including vehicle nose lift, power folding mirrors, soft close doors, power adjustable comfort seats and Homelink as standard on all trims. That’s a great effing deal!

That V is wide


It should be free revving and very smooth (it wouldnt surprise me to see it spin past 9k) considering that it doesn't need a split-pin crank.

looks stunning. overall the car seems like an NSX though... tt v6 mid engine hybrid.

Not something i'd buy but i'm a fan of EV tech allowing the car to start up completely silent, leave the subdivision, and then fire up the ICE and spit flames.

As many models as this company has and how they drop in value like a tank... I'd get myself a 570s w a phenomenal TTv8 for pennies on the dollar once this was released.

The Acura was simply too docile for me, not raw enough. I expect this one will be much more raw and emotional to drive.

Is there such a thing as entry level for a McLaren?
