That is how the hot ride from McLaren arrives in North America. Get ready to write a check and burn a $229,000 hole in your bank account if you want to be behind the wheels of the new McLaren MP4-12C. Add around $2,400 to that for destination charges and other processing fees.
The British car marque recently confirmed that the consumers of the United States and Canada can expect deliveries soon. The video above of the first batch of the McLaren supercars getting off a vessel in a port in Baltimore, Maryland was also released to bolster the marketing campaign for the MP4-12C.
The McLaren MP4-12C has a heart of a V8 twin turbocharged 3.8L powerplant that gives out 592 horsepower and a peak torque of 442.5 lb-ft. The 12C can blast from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in a matter of 3.2 seconds. Give it a set of Pzero Corsa rubber from Pirelli and you can bring the sprint down to a flat 3 seconds.
McLaren has currently 10 dealerships in North America. They have McLaren Toronto, McLaren Berverly Hills, McLaren San Francisco, McLaren Newport Beach, McLaren Chicago, McLaren Dallas, McLaren Greenwich, McLaren Tampa, McLaren Philadelphia, and the Collection McLaren in Miami.
