In one of the strangest super car crashes we’ve seen in a long time, the driver of a Volcano Yellow McLaren P1 in Japan has managed to somehow get his expensive machine up the barrier at a toll booth. The crash is spectacular, but fortunately the damage is insignificant.
Mind you, even an insignificant damage on a McLaren P1 can cost an arm and a leg to fix. After all, this is a limited edition hyper car of which only 375 units will ever be made, and each of them cost, at least, $1.3 million dollars. That said, if you can afford to spend that kind of money on a car in the first place, a $300K repair bill is not going to give you a serious headache, is it?
The low-riding McLaren P1 is said by the journalists who have driven it to be the easiest of the new hyper car trio – this, LaFerrari and Porsche 918. It even has an electric mode in which it drives like a G-Wiz. But still, this owner of this P1 found it a bit tricky to guide the car smoothly between the two barriers of the toll booth. Either that, or he didn’t want to pay and was trying to make a run for it!
