Not pretty but not ugly, futuristic art deco style that I do like. I'd like to see it in the flesh.

Looks terrible and McLaren should be embarrassed to put their name to that thing. I hope this anonymous client is given them a shed load of coin is all I can say.

Whether i like it or not is irrelevant....
What i do like though is that in this day and age of mass production and assembly lines, there is still the opportunity to walk into a manufacturer (albeit pushing a wheelbarrow full of money) and have them build a car to suit your desires and tastes.... Reminds me of the days of old and “Coachbuilt” cars...thumbs up to McLaren for doing it.....

my first thoughts were that the owner wanted a retro 50's style car with a modern touch and it seems that is the case. he didn't want a ferrari/lambo clone so good luck to him. not sure if i like it and i seriously doubt i would ever own it, no matter how rich i become, but i like the concept and idea behind it a big thumbs up to all concerned in building it, if for nothing else, proving automotive dreams can come true for those willing to actually dream |
