Today we have a complete photo gallery with the new 2013 McLaren Mp4-12C Spider. The car was unveiled two weeks ago in Paris Motor Show, and animated the McLaren stand along P1 concept, the heir of McLaren F1 legacy.
With a lightweight, high powered engine developing 625 hp, unique RHT folding roof system that may be operated while on the move, and carbon MonoCell chassis, identical to that of the groundbreaking 12C, the 12C Spider is a luxury convertible sports car made for those who want to hear the sound of the V8 engine.
Antony Sheriff, McLaren Automotive Managing Director, said during this year Paris Motor Show, that “while the 12C is the technological essence of a race car, the 12C Spider incorporates an additional dimension. 12C Spider owners will love the opportunity to lower the roof and hear the unhindered howl of a V8 twin turbo engine at full throttle. It undoubtedly enhances an already euphoric 12C driving experience. The 12C Spider delivers all the thrills characteristic of a high performance roadster, and yet transforms into a raucous track beast at the flick of a switch.”
