Interesting fact that Dubai leads the P1 order book together with Dallas:

“As of now, the Dubai dealership is equal first with Dallas on taking deposits for this car, but I fully expect by the month end to be doing the leading.”

Dubai leads the way in McLaren P1 supercar orders | GulfNews.com

Dallas order book stands at 9 cars at the moment, really surprised that other high-volume markets like Beverly Hills for example wasn't able to squeeze out more orders.

Fair enough. I wasn't trying to insult you. Just seemed unlikely to me that those would be concerns that weren't handled. But I don't know anything.


I think this thread has gotten a little more sensitive over the last few days. Let's keep the positive talk up and negative down. We are all here because we love the car

Of the last pics released, I really loved the steering wheel. It looks better than I expected, very simple and keeping the "wheelpad" with just the necessary buttons, a good decission by all means, IMHO.



And, Artist, I agree on the power topic and on the fact that weight will have the last word!

Mate I was just trying to be matter of fact ? No offence here at all I assure you ( received or intentionally given ) . I get excited about all things motoring ( and most cars ) but have this nerd thing of trying to understand detail . Sorry if what I wrote was not in the spirit I intended it
