McLaren F1 successor possibly being readied for 2018 launch

The McLaren F1 from the 1990’s is a motoring icon. It went on to become the fastest road going car at the time by clocking 372 kph, which surpassed the record of the RUF CTR2. McLaren’s current high-end hybrid, the P1, is considered to be the successor of this legendary supercar.

This new car is expected to be readied by 2018 and to come with a steep price tag of $2.61 million.
