CFS: First US McLaren P1 GTR

This McLaren P1 GTR has clocked just 120 miles and features some distinctive McLaren Special Operations options

When McLaren Automotive decided to launch a new statement-making halo model back in 2013, they didn’t leave anything on the table. Forged from decades of engineering experience and banned Formula One technology, this hybrid hypercar became one of the most capable road production cars in the world. However, McLaren’s Ultimate Series car still had limitations.

While 903hp and a 0-60mph time of 2.8 seconds doesn’t sound like the credentials of a car that has been restricted, the laws of the road prevented the P1 from excelling as the most extreme machine McLaren were capable of building. The McLaren P1 GTR takes the road-legal hyper car and sets it free on the race track.

The GTR has also been equipped with a passenger seat allowing others to experience this car’s incredible 1.5G cornering abilities and 217mph top speed. If you really want to frighten your copilot, slamming on the brakes at 60mph will arrest the car’s progress in just 85ft. You can even capture the whole escapade on camera with the P1’s built-in video and telemetry system.

The McLaren P1 GTR is the ultimate version of one of the world’s ultimate cars, with opportunities to purchase such a machine few and far between. Pricing is upon appointment for this exceptional 120-mile GTR, but Canepa will be happy to assist interested parties.
