The McLaren P1 by numbers

375 Total number of cars to be built to maintain exclusivity, although a racing model has been considered during the car’s design and engineering

300 per cent difference in suspension stiffness from normal to race modes

1 The only option for the £866k car is an extra battery charger

1 Car built per day on a bespoke line in the McLaren Production Centre

16000 litres of water shot at each production car in monsoon testing to check each on for leaks

600kg of downforce in race mode thanks to 300mm rear wing extension, less drag than a 12C in normal

980 degrees temp of exhaust gas in track mode

6 different types of carbon fibre used in the construction

800 degrees brake disc temperature of special Akebono brakes. Discs are so hard they’re near indestructible and should last the life of the car

 

Is that correct? I would have thought that MSO would have an endless list of options available for the customer....

 

So would I have, i'm going to inquire.

 

Not sure if it makes sense in a car this individual, but they might be talking about "standard" options as you have in a normal car. What I mean is that MSO business may not be considered in an optional list, but considered as individualization and therefore not included in an option list...

 

Wonder why the solid yellow one was missing its wing

 

It's a new trend:

I was thinking this as well but then why bother to even mention it if that were the case? Maybe they needed an additional point in order to hit their word limit....

 

Apparently according to some chinese website, the mclaren P1 posted 6:33 at the nurburgring.

Could this be real?
