A veritable race car built for the road, the 650S produces 641 horsepower and features a wide range of technologies borrowed from Formula 1. Some buyers were able to secure the 675LT, a limited edition with a style reminiscent of the F1 Longtail. Both of these machines boast an insane ride, and it's a point of pride for McLaren to make cars that can be used daily. A convertible version is available and the starting price will guarantee exclusivity.
Unlike many other McLarens, the all-new Artura is not named using a series of digits and letters. A combination of the words “Art” and “Futura,” it slots between the GT and 720S as a wonderful new supercar with hybrid technology. With 720S production ending as we speak (and the company …
There are cars that strike a deep chord. In my case, it’s generally about the drive, more than the styling, outright performance or technology. Driving a car is what’s most empowering in this world, unless you fly planes or save lives for a living. Driving is nearly everything to me.
During an impromptu discussion at the last Montreal Boat Show, the folks at BRP mentioned to us that their all-new 300-horsepower, Sea-Doo RXP-X watercraft was faster off the line than many sports cars. What could be more interesting than a good discussion between performance enthusiasts? “Challenge accepted,” we said at …
What is a McLaren? For some, absolutely nothing. For others, it’s a company that very successfully competed in F1 for decades. For others still, McLaren is the creator of some the most sought-after, desirable and rare supercars the world has even seen, such as the monstrously cool F1 road car.
It was a day of exceptional premiers at the St-Eustache Autodrome. On that track, no one had ever driven these two versions of the McLaren MP4-12C, a superb carbon-fibre sports car that took off in hot pursuit of Ferrari, Lamborghini, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche and other brands nearly two years ago. Before …
Today’s tuners have a lot in common with pre-war coachbuilders: they take a vehicle that comes out of a manufacturer’s assembly plant and give it their personal touch. Liberty Walk is a small workshop in Japan: they made their reputation modifying JDM cars such as the Nissan GT-R, with wide …
Next year marks the 50th anniversary of the inaugural Can-Am season, and McLaren is celebrating with a limited-run 650S modeled after the championship-winning car it fielded in the series. Built by McLaren Special Operations, the British automaker's bespoke division, the 650S Can-Am pays hommage to the series and the car …
McLaren was a serious contender in the Can-Am series for a long time. When the very first race was held in 1966, the manufacturer was on the starting grid. The next year, McLaren dominated; of the 6 races, they won 5! After that, Bruce McLaren's team kept on winning, securing …
In 2011, McLaren unveiled the MP4-12C, a mid-engine supercar created to go up against Ferrari’s 458. It was then slowly modernized, eventually becoming the 650S in 2014. This year, an updated, track-focused derivative was announced. Dubbed the 675LT, its 3.8-litre twin-turbo V8 generates 675 horsepower; as for the LT moniker, …
20 years ago, McLaren entered five F1 GTRs in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race. We expected the car to finish well, but we did not know how good they actually were: finishing 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 13th, the cars cemented the F1’s racing pedigree. To commemorate this …
While the launch of the McLaren 650S GT3 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed was impressive, it was obvious this model was only intended as a track car. For those of you who still want a more track-focused 650S, albeit street-legal this time, the manufacturer just unveiled the 650S Sprint.
This year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance will be decidedly full of wonderful cars! MSO (McLaren's Special Operations) just lifted the veils off the cars that will be shown at their booth. The first one is a 650S created in partnership with the McLaren dealership in Newport Beach. The car is …
McLaren was at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, and they took the opportunity to unveil their latest racecar, the 650S GT3. The car will be used in many official GT3 racing series around the globe for the 2015 season. While the GT3 may look like the road-going 650S …
“This,” Russ Bond says, “could be the supercar.” What he is talking about is the 2015 McLaren 650S, a $400,000 punch-packing beast on wheels. The price tag, interestingly enough, could net you not one but two Audi R8 V10s, Russ notes. But then again, as great as it may be, …
