McLaren F1 is one of the most famous super cars that McLaren produced between the years 1994-1988, from the 100 cars: 65 are street versions, 5 are Lm`s and 3 are Gt3. The Chief Engineer Gordon Murroy`s concept refers to the use of expensive materials like: carbon, titanium, gold and for the first time the use of carbon fiber monocoque chassis. Power? Here is a question mark, if the car has the power output at 627 horsepower or has an imperial HP. The super car is powered by an 6 L V12 engine built by BMW,627 HP at 7400 rmp, same as road car version. The car has a top speed of 384 km/h, (very good speed for 1994) and can reach a speed of 100 km/h in 3,1 seconds, 200 km/h in 6,3 seconds and 300 km/h in 30 seconds. The McLaren F1 was the fastest car in the world until Bugatti Veyron was introduced. The price of this car is unknown, this type of car is not produced anymore, but is still a super car.
