We’ve been hearing the rumors for awhile, but it’s great to hear the news. Word on the street is, the long awaited baby McLaren will be coming to the Geneva Motorshow 2014. As you may recall, the P13 is aimed at squarely at the uncontested 911 turbo’s price range of about $180,000. We say uncontested […] More »

McLaren has exhibited a terribly awesome (awesome, terrible, you decide) knack of springing heavy handed news on us in a surprising fashion.

One look at the McLaren P1 and you know it’s destined for great things; to stand as an automotive icon for a long time. Photos are one thing, but nothing I’ve seen online evokes this feeling as strongly as McLaren’s official video showcasing the hybrid hypercar’s date with the fabled German racetrack.
