New McLaren 570S First Official Photos Leaked

Post

Her it is folks.

Image

From the article:
While pictures are grainy and low resolution, they show a stylish sports car that follows in the footsteps of the 650S and P1. The similarities might put some people off but the model has distinctively shaped doors with cutouts that channel air into the air intakes.

6 pictures and full article

Coming from the P1 and the 650, this looks like a complete joke...

So it looks like a 650s and has a slightly detuned engine from the 650s?

Yet another flying buttress then... BMW, Honda, Ford, now McLaren.
IMO it's a good looking car.

I like that. Interesting that they've gone for normal anti roll bars for this model. None of the clever interconnected suspension from the higher models. Model differentiation I suppose.

I can already see the reviews - when compared to Ferrari it will "lack passion" or some other rubbish. Compared to Porsche it'll lack some other odd subjective issue. The magazines always pick Porsche or Ferrari as winners irrespective of the competition. :roll:

Well at least Honda aren't doing the engine!

It seems to me that McLaren building road cars seems to often coincide with a drop off in form of the F1 team.

My thoughts exactly. It's the least aesthetically pleasing of the McLarens. The P1 looks amazing, the 650s and 675lt look great, even the 12c is decent looking compared to this thing. I'm sure it'll be great to drive though. Those specs aren't bad.

It looks like they got them off an old Ford Focus and tuned them upside down.

It's a true British gentlemen sportscar.

Also I believe it's a mental thing...

Would you buy a 150k Audi?

...or would you rather buy a 150k Mclaren?

No, you would probably buy...

150k Porsche 911 GT3

That Porsche is simply sex on wheels.

Nah, the 911 has become a parody of itself these days. Porsche can't figure out how to kill it off although the Cayman GT4 is apparently capable of doing so.

Now, if someone made me have a 911, then a 993 Turbo would be high on the short list following a lottery win... [-o<
