As we have mentioned before, McLaren Newport Beach is one of the busiest branches of the British automaker. We featured some of the unique P1s they have delivered in the past, including an awesome Acid Yellow example. Now let’s take a close look at the 8th McLaren P1 they recently delivered.
As you would expect, every one of the 375 McLaren P1 models that are delivered so far are unique in more ways than one way. Some go for a mellow white paint work, while others like C J Wilson prefer something loud and brash. The owner of this P1 decided to go with something in the middle, opting for a cool and dignified color called “Flintgrau Metallic”.
The finish looks pretty amazing on the car, especially as it is paired with special carbon fiber parts featuring subtle blue glitter in the clear coat (best visible under direct sunlight), and an “Ox Blood” leather interior.
McLaren P1 Specs:
-Aero-led design produces more downforce than any other production road car

-Active ride height, and aerodynamics work with large adjustable rear wing to give ground effect suction and optimised downforce
-IPAS (Instant Power Assist System) and DRS (Drag Reduction System) offer instant boost of power and straight-line speed
